Chapter 13

A passage from Rutger's Journal

 * "We awoke from a fine rest, Cenwyn sourced some trout and we pressed on to the next market town.  We passed by the town guard without incident and headed into the centre of the market town of Umiond.  We located the main keep and spoke to the gatekeeper.  Iggy's status as a member of the Emperor's Blade granted us audience up the keep to the second level to a room similar to Dubov's waiting area in Hanwyr.  I initially thought that when we went into the room that it was too ornate for this far from the empire, that perhaps the Govenor was a pawn in the Cultist's plan - but I dismissed the feeling.  We explained our quest to the Govenor and he took interest in Iggy's history as a member of the Imperial Blade.  Jakar took the spear from the bag of holding and presented it to he governor, and his representive took it.  We were dismissed and led by Stebbins to the mess.
 * A managable meal was presented and we discussed our audience with the Govenor (Gavrel Iltchenko ).  We all seemed uneasy about the meeting and resolved to investigate further.
 * We sold some things we found along the way and purchased some equipment (leaving 585 GP in the group pot) Jakar was found by some old collegues - his history is even darker than Iggy's!  By mid afternoon we decided to explore Umiond.  We found a temple of Bahamut, it is being kept by a fellow Dragonborn - Hans from the Dragon born kingdoms in the East - Astrasia.  It would seem that perhaps some distant clan has expanded into one of several kingdoms on this continent.  Paying my respects to Bahamut I had visions of a mountianside similar to those I had in my dream where I was fighting hydra, then flying high up at great speed pass icy mountainside - revealing the northern mountain range here, there are a number of peaks show in pictures around the imperial sites that look familuar - no words - but i get a clear sense of longing. We go to the Inn 'The Bloody Spear' it was quite busy but we booked rooms and take food and drink at a table near the wall.  Iggy was busy flirting with a contact that he made earlier - I just ignored him and ate my food.
 * I retired to my room to tend to my kit and ponder the visions I had at the temple."
