After navigating through the city of Orabyr, our adventurers soon find themselves at the Killer Cutlass. It is a disreputable tavern, home to thieves and crooks. But according to young Prince Tristan, their only hope in finding medical help for Phaidra. Rastus, in human form, attempted to find help within the tavern, but was tossed out onto the street by what appeared to be a band of surly pirates. Watching from the shadows, Jakatu and Dragoknight almost sprang to their lycanthropic friend's aid until a familiar voice caused them to pause.

High Marshall Steadfast emerged from the shadows challenging the pirates and claiming that Rastus was under his protection.  Confused by this the pirates look ready for a fight.  But is the High Marshall truly there to help or will he try to hinder the adventurers again while Phaidra's life hangs in the balance?

After reaching a shaky agreement from members of the Were'en, a roguish guild of Lycanthropes, our heroes find themselves in desperate need of a doctor.  Phaidra's condition continues to deteriorate and there is very little that can be done. Jakatu and Dragoknight quickly realize that the only options available may lead them back into the waiting shackles of the Royal Guard of Orabyr or Red's eventual death.

Our heroes have successfully escaped not only from the Dread Moors, but the clutches of the Royal Guard of Orabyr as well. After suffering injuries from a brief battle with Orabyr knights on top of injuries suffered from a grueling battle with trolls, the companions require some much needed rest.  Phaidra, suffering the most, points them towards a safehouse hoping to heal and hide from anyone looking for them.  Unfortunately, the guardsmen of Orabyr aren't the only ones looking for the companions.

Jakatu the Minotaur and Dragoknight the Dragonborn find themselves on the run as they try to escape imprisonment by the Royal Orabyr Guard. Together, along with Red aka Phaidra, Rastus and Prince Tristan, they run off into the Dread Moors once again. But while making their escape, Phaidra looked back to see that Tristan's father, Lord Orabyr was with the Guard who she suspected of being corrupt and a threat towards the young prince.

After barely surviving an encounter with a pair of swamp trolls, our heroes, Jakatu the Minotaur and Dragoknight the Dragonborn, find themselves in the presence of the Royal Guardsmen of Orabyr. But although they had saved Prince Tristan of Orabyr, alongside Phaidra the Red and their Wererat companion Rastus, the aid of the Guardsmen may not be in our heroes' best interest.

Happy Thanksgiving! 
In this episode, our heroes, Jakatu the Minotaur and Dragoknight the Dragonborn, locate the missing prince, Tristan, and find him sinking into a pool of quicksand.  To make matters worse, two trolls have wandered in, attracted to the sounds of fighting and the promise of easy prey.
Trolls are not easy opponents, even for veteran adventurers.  And after just leaving combat with a small pack of gnolls, the two heroes are already dealing with battle fatigue.
