Episode One - Freedom!

 It was just after mid-morning when the naval vessel docked in Blackmoor, disgorging the slaves that they had rescued from slavers of the Temple of the Frog. The freed slaves were taken to a table at the docks where they were greeted by an arcanist named Gaaron the Damned, whose eyes seemed to be pits of hellfire coals.

They spend a few days training, shopping, and suffering the bad food available in the local inn. Farthingdale the Cheese merchant pays for their in room during their stay. The bard at the inn, Ecthelion the Bard, is... horrible. His tips amount to barely enough copper to afford a day's food and beer.

They ask for sanctuary from the LizardFolk raiders they claim assaulted them and stole their foodstuff-filled cart. Sure enough, a score of LizardFolk appear, pursuing them. Trista called to the LizardFolk in Draconic, and established a parlay. The LizardFolk wanted the seven humans for extradition; they were "ver-mish!" (slurred "vermin"). The humans transformed ...
