Vol. 2, Diary Entry 3

Dear Diary,

Remember how we were tasked with tracking down Captain Molly’s sister Charlotte, because she had sent word that she feared for her life? Wellll, we found her… body. We had started our investigation at her apartment, after docking at Nemesser – above the magic item shop she ran with her good friend and business partner (Dimity Daigle) – and she was slumped over the desk in her personal office. It looks like she had been stabbed after an intrusion – her store had been cleaned out and her entire apartment ransacked.

Molly is… barely managing to keep herself together, and all of us from the Storm Maiden’s Revenge are committed to catching the perpetrators. We did find some intriguing clues in her apartment – Charlotte herself had scrawled a note in her final moments that said, “D took it.” We also found some references to a mysterious person ‘E.D. III’, and a scrap of paper hidden along a bedpost that read, in Halfling, “Use the sending stones.”

We’re not sure who wrote that note, or what exactly to say if we DO attempt to use Molly’s sending stone – but we do know that her partner Dimity is a halfling… so maybe she knows something about the note?

After visiting a couple of pubs in Dimity’s general neighborhood (with wildly different clientele and décor), we managed to learn which specific house was hers – and Marty let us in with his ‘key’. Now that we’re inside, what will we learn about this artificer – or the nefarious ne’er-do-wells who knifed Charlotte and nicked her nifty novelties?
THAT’S for another entry!

XOXOXO,
Red Erin
