["Fenrir" (in reality a simulacrum created by the Vicar of Ghaunadaur), Corhim Sparkledingle the Gnome Wizard and Fangorino the Barbarian are in Sasserine, on mission given to them from my wife Lavinia back on Yag Island. They are currently fighting rogues and bouncers of the Lotus Dragon Thieves' Guild at some warehouse, in an attempt to retrieve supplies that had been stolen from the Vanderborens.]

DAY 591 (14th Marpenoth) (October) cont ...

Bad Harry was sort of useful in the fighting, but he always seemed to want to chop the head off any of the rogues that ended up on the ground. He even went as far as to offer one to his new friend Sparkledingle.

With the fighting outside the warehouses done, he wandered off, holding his collection of heads high in the air for all to see.

Fenrir and Fang went round to one of the back doors. Fang chopped it down. While they were round the back, some rogues scampered from the northern warehouse to the eastern one. Corhim was now hiding up on the roof again and saw this, shouting out 'I see people!'

'Get me two heads!' Fang shouted back. Thinking he would use this to intimidate the rogues still inside.

At the back the door had opened into a little office. The door to the main warehouse had been barricaded shut so Fenrir blasted it down. He was then hit by Magic Missiles, cast from a wand held by a Lotus Dragon commander. He and Fang charged in, slaying rogues or chasing them away. The commander fled too, leaving a huge dog behind to hold them back. Another well known Sasserine entity it was none other than Dave the Dog, a cross between a border collie and a black dragon (if you believe the tavern tales!). 

Corhim continued to hide outside and saw the commander and some of the other rogues flee into the night. Thinking it might now be over he went to the door but was shot by a stray crossbow bolt. He ran off and hid again.

Battered and singed Dave backed off into a corner to lick his wounds. The first warehouse was theirs! It looked like it contained the missing supplies and while Fenrir checked around, Fang chopped off two heads, having a use for them later on. Corhim was horrified.

At the back of the next warehouse they chopped their way in again, and in this ones office they found a tarted up woman guarding a female prisoner.

The tart screamed and fled into the night. The prisoner was tied to a chair so they dragged her out into the street and untied her there.

When the next door was blasted down, Fang tossed the two heads into the main area. The rogues must have been pretty brave, or pretty stupid though as they saw the heads, but attacked anyway.

Again Corhim didn't go in, but stayed outside and talked to the prisoner. Her name as Cally Blackmeed and she was a rogue from a rival guild.

Once more Fang and Fenrir applied the 'choppy choppy' and the 'zappy zappy' in liberal amounts and some rogues were left dead while other threw open the front door and fled.

By the time they had looted all the corpses some wagons had arrived and sailors from the Blue Nixie started loading them up. They kept watch while this was done but no one, not even Bad Harry, came looking for trouble.

As dawn crept over the horizon they got on the ship and went to their cabins to clean up. In the warm morning night the Blue Nixie headed back to Yag Island.
