Log
Some workers had gone missing down in the sewers, me and the bruvs have come together to make sure it doesn't happen again. We met Statekski near a manhole entrance, where she briefed us on the situation. She stated that they saw a large amount of rats, and possibly undead. She doesn't have any other specifics. She gave us specific instructions about where to go. The workers that went missing were on the edge of Little Monarch and Upper Sacks.
We entered the sewers, and Oska spotted tracks in the direction that we are heading. We found older tracks away from the direction we were going, and followed them. We found some signs of rodents, and they grew more recent as we progressed. We found the tools of the mechanics in a side passage, and signs of an attack. Snicket investigated the tools further. We suspect that the mechanics were attacked at this location.
We were then attacked by a group of rats, a rat swarm, and three giant rats. Bodrukk and Snicket both fell victim to Filth Fever, and will need to see a doctor. We investigated the collapsed tunnel next, and found a small hole that collapsed after Bodrukk moved through it. Snicket was able to move through it, but myself, Seren, and Oska were stuck on the other side. Cutter, Bodrukk, and Serene dug out the tunnel to allow us to pass.
On the other side of the collapse, we found the body of a worker. They had been attacked by a kverner, an amphibious fae, that doesn't like its waters disturbed. We talked to it, and agreed to take out the other hunters in its territory, and will set up signs to prevent workers from disturbing it. We then entered into the territory of a mercreature named bubbles, his risen drauger worker, and his pet cavefisher. They were a very difficult fight that prevented most of our strikes from landing, and we almost lost myself, and snicket. After Bodrukk took down the mercreature, the other combatants ceased moving, so we stopped fighting. We led the undead cave fisher and draugr out, and recovered the body of another mechanic. We spoke to the kverner and fulfilled the end of our bargain. Bodrukk was able to overcome filth fever, as was Snicket, who was able to barely survive with the aid of Fen.
I was very proud in my team, but very dissapointed in the intel brought to us by Statekski, I'm going to bring that up with the council next meeting.
