(G114 16/04/11 KT - AP, ON(GM), GF) Sat

We then walked along to take a look around the brewery and dug about a bit and traced the ownership
of the building to one Petraska Sparger. We went along and talked to her. Fenrir started
haggling with her, but I went in with a quick suggesting but was met with complete contempt.

There must be something about my face or something. Everyone new I talk to these days seems to take
an instant dislike to me. I sometimes almost feel as if I'm dealing with the same sneering visage
repeated over and over again in the people of Waterdeep.
Or perhaps it is because compared to the Shining Beacon Of Splendour that is Mister Fenrir Thunderstaff
I appear such a dullard?

I think I will hang a sign around my neck like a mute and keep my mouth shut from now on.

Anyway, I said something rude and left Fenrir to complete the negotiations.

After lunch we met up with the others at the OJB.
We cleared out some rat's from the top floor but other than that the place appeared deserted.

Myself and Fenrir spent the rest of the day traipsing up and down the city, in our disguises, to a
removal's company, a storage place, and a place to get lead helmets made to help prevent
dopplegangers from reading our thoughts.

I arranged for Janna to have a fine burial. I feel terrible about her death, but maybe one day
I might be able to do something about it. In any event what little is left of her will rest in
peace in a splendid tomb in the Hall of Heroes. This I arranged with the Church of
Helembore.

We then met up with the others and the four of us settled down to spend the night in the OJB.

DAY 23 (4th Tarsakh)

Nothing is ever simple with us though!

While me and Fenrir were swapping our night watch shift the ghost of none other than Old Jock
himself turned up.

Well, apparently Fenrir's Demon Charm works even on ghosts because he seemed willing to talk. He
revealed the usual sort of thing you might expect from a ghost. He needs his spell book back from
a guy called Lousyian. Fenrir knows the details, I kind of switched off for a bit, but I think it will
involve a card game. Old Jock must have lost his book that way.

Anyway, that wasn't the end of it, as when I was downstairs in the tavern area I was set on by Jock's
ghostly dog 'Wolf', who slobbered ectoplasm all over me with his ghostly nibbles.

I went outside, figuring correctly, that the hound wouldn't follow me and threw a couple of pebbles
at the upper windows to rouse the others.

I was suddenly attacked though, by the Doppers that had been at the Rat Catcher's Guild. They
got a few ranged shots in at me, but got more than they bargained for when entering the OJB.
I gravely injured the man and he was then splattered by a powerful demon ray from Fenrir.

The woman was attacked by the ghost hound, injured by me and fled.

I was in two minds whether to follow her, but when Raya rushed out I gave pursuit as well.

We caught up with her a couple of streets away and Raya hit her with an arrow and I got
her a blast with my Gloves of Lightning.

She stabbed me again but I managed to stop her. But like a bad smell you can never get rid of
some Castle Ward watchmen turned up.

She had just declared, 'This man is trying to rape me!' before being knocked to the cobbles
by an arrow fired from the darkness.

I stood there with two of the watchmen the other two took off after Raya.

It had got messy again.
