## Session Summary
> [!tldr] [[011_20210713 Where's Wally]]
> An elderly neighbour across Nima's house told the party the direction that Wally had been dragged off in, and it led to the Silberquel Ridge. The party went up the hill, fighting and defeating another group of kobolds along the way. Eventually they found a cave behind a large waterfall. Reya tried to be sneaky, but was spotted by Sken and several kobolds, with Wally and Nima bound nearby. The party began to fight Sken and the kobolds! ^summary

## Lulu's notes
- After some deliberation at Nima’s house and conversation with the elderly neighbour across the road, we discover that two figures, one short and one tall, had been seen dragging off a “seemingly drunk” third figure fitting the description of Wally.
- There is a spray of some sort on the outside wall of the window he was taken out of; the glass is broken from the inside. We find two sets of footprints and drag marks (Wally's, a kobold's and a set of "finer prints"). The footprints are heading northeast out towards one of town gates, but got mixed in with general foot traffic.
- On one of the kobolds we found 1 diamond worth 50GP and 2 lode stones that I put the bag of holding.
- We meet a taxidermist on the street who points us to the direction of the [[Silberquel Ridge]], and [[Crownsguard]] at the gates who also pointed the way to the path up the mountain.
- In the process we discover that [[Vermeillon]] - the abandoned mining town we’ve heard of from a few people - is much further along the mountain ridge than Silberquel. But it is the silver falls cave from Nina’s note that we are currently looking for.
- Making our way up the hill is steep going, often with narrow paths, but Reya and Xenia spot movement in the undergrowth and behind the rocks that turn out to be three [[kobolds]], one a spellcaster on the back of a giant weasel. They immediately attack and after a short skirmish and a couple of exploding kobolds, we defeat them.
- An hour later we approached the ridge, following the cascading stream up to a large waterfall with a cave behind it.
- Reya sneaks up to the cave, but messes up her stealthing as she enters the cave mouth and is spotted by its occupants: [[Sken Zabriss 💀]] and several kobolds. She also spots Wally and [[Nima Cinnarid]] in there. Nima in shackles, Wally in manacles.
- Sken and the kobolds immediately give battle and we realise there is a mecha kobold, a kobold inventor (who releases a skunk and threw a pot of green slime at Reya), and a hidden caster in the tent, as well as the normal kobold. Nina aids us in the fight by throwing exploding seeds.
- Sken taunts us saying we are about to be defeated, as is [[the Empire]], by the might of the [[Kryn Dynasty]].
## Sjoerd's notes
Window smashed from inside.
Signs of a spray of something outside the window.
Foot prints outside? Red kobold footprints + wally prints + more fine footprints
Witness: pretty drunk man. They went north east, cloud of fog
We ask around.
Super charming crownguard captain (think Liam Hemsworth) if they have seen Wally.
Why don't we know where our friend is?
Reya makes up an exuse that Wally was to marry Milla but got cold feet last minute.
We go up the mountain
We fight kobolds
We reach to the waterfall
We find Wally, Nima and other captured by Sken and some kobolds. A fight.
## Andy's notes
After some deliberation at Nima’s house and conversation with the elderly neighbour across the road, the party discovered that two figures, one short and one tall had been dragging off a “seemingly drunk” third figure fitting the description of @Tyler(Wally). The footprints were heading northeast out towards one of town gates, but got mixed in with general foot traffic.
You met a taxidermist on the street who pointed you to the direction of the Silberquel Ridge and Crownsguard at the gates who also pointed the way to the path up the mountain. In the process you discovered that Vermeillon - the abandoned mining town you’ve heard of from a few people - is much further along the mountain ridge than Silberquel. But it was the silver falls cave from Nina’s note that you were currently looking for.
Making your way up the hill was steep going, often with narrow paths, but Reya and Xenia spotted movement in the undergrowth and behind the rocks that turned out to be three kobolds, one a spellcaster on the back of a giant weasel. They immediately attacked and after a short skirmish and a couple of exploding kobolds, they were defeated.
An hour later you approached the ridge, following the cascading stream up to a large waterfall with a cave behind it.
Reya sneaked up to the cave, but was mess stealthy as she entered the cave mouth and was spotted by its occupants: Sken and several kobolds. She also spotted @Tyler(Wally) and Nima shackled in there. Nima in shackles, Wally in manacles.
Sken and the kobolds immediately gave battle and you realised there was a mecha kobold, a kobold inventor (who released a skunk and threw a pot of green slime at Reya), and a hidden caster in the tent as well as the normal kobold. Nina’s aided you in the fight by throwing the exploding seeds.
Sken taunted you saying you were about to be defeated as was the Empire by the might of the Kryn Dynasty
