Upon leaving Kvothe's palace Lindal grabbed a sconce filled with oil. Which Looks vaguely like an ancient city. Investigation revealed it was a Symbol of Mnyama as it shows the flaming wreckage of a destroyed city of Mezro. But it is not worth much ~ 2 gp, distinctive, probably not worth the risk of being caught selling.
Undril was meeting with Reynold. She was reaching out to Contacts that were associated with the Lightbringer and Order of gauntlet. There were problem with undead invading city more frequently than usual and she was concerned. Reynold was sober and relayed that Articus cinder used to work for him and one of the other fellow who went after him, my agent Lomar Dral went after him and disappeared as well.
Reynold said he remembered more about his previous companions. They would see forty fifty zombies at a time but it kept getting worse. In the rain in the dark. It's easy enough to kill them when you see them coming but when visibility barely expenses past your tent and three tent collapses due to the weight of bodies in it. I tried to convince D'oraah it wasn't worth it. We were having more and more close calls. I knew we were heading back for supplies so I deliberately didn't purify my water so I could fall sick. *bitter laugh* God it almost killed me. Leeches in my throat blocking my airway. The shakes, shivering so hard I couldn't defend myself. That is the real killer. Between mosquitoes and the water very few expeditions make it anywhere. Remember mezro? That was with a camp where we kept constant incense burning keeping away the worst of the insects. In the jungle it is nothing like that expedition. We rarely got to sleep well, and you get exhausted wearing armor in the heat. There was never enough clean water. And your provisions will spoil quickly. And the further south you go the more dangerous things get.
After meeting with Reynold Kyloran and Celadon went with Seraph to meet lady with psuedodragon who is named Xandala. And whom reveals her familiar is called Summerwise not Summersage. They learn she is hunting for her father Arctus Kimber. When asked about the poor health of her familiar she says her familiar is just worried about her chasing after her father.
Later Kylorin and Celadon go to temple of Mujuraraji where they are several thugs threatening a priest to get him to tell them about "Arcis Cimber" but the priest plead for patience saying he can not help them. The thugs look angry but seeing Kylorin and Celadon they depart. The head priest Grandfather Zitembe thanks them and says he would like to help them in return. He offers to cast a divination ritual but she first asks the party help retrieve his acolyte Inete who went to check on a halfling petitioner Ivan Silver hair.
Celadon gets into lengthy conversation with the Head archivist at the temple and talks for hours while Kylorin wanders away to visit other nearby temples and falls into a funeral procession to the temple of Msukumo. Kylorin is not let in but the acolyte seems sincerely apologetic and welcomes her to come again when there is not a funeral in progress. The things was it was a joyous gathering with music and dancing which is why she did not realize that it was a funeral procession. The culture of Chult makes for a very different attitude towards death.
Meanwhile Freya leads the rest of the group to meet with Ortimay and arrange passage to Fort Bellarian after the races are over the next day. She then goes to pick up the reward mony from Zindar before Eddie and Lindal take her shopping in the grand Souk with their new found cash.
The party also joins back up later at the Grand Souk where they buy insect incense, canoes, and rain catchers, There is a bit of trouble where the group learns the hotel has no where sufficient to store canoes on premises. They then go back to Tiryki Anchorage to trade their dinosaur egg for racing Hydrosaurus for the next days races. A couple of teh brokers inquire about buying Seraph but the party is not willing to consider it.
