 After clearing out the two young white dragons residing in their fort, the Black Feather Troupe set in for the winter. ​ They reached out to the ambassador of the Dragon Nation [[gaeleth:​places:​Wuron Sfa]] and were forgiven for the deaths of the two young dragons, and allowed to keep or dispose of their remains -- save for the skull of the one at the fort.  The skull might be used as a clue to the parents of the two young dragons. ​ The troupe was given a special scroll that would, upon completion and sealing, immediately send its letter to the ambassador -- the dragon known as Vristilistalamar (or Vrist, for short). After clearing out the two young white dragons residing in their fort, the Black Feather Troupe set in for the winter. ​ They reached out to the ambassador of the Dragon Nation [[gaeleth:​places:​Wuron Sfa]] and were forgiven for the deaths of the two young dragons, and allowed to keep or dispose of their remains -- save for the skull of the one at the fort.  The skull might be used as a clue to the parents of the two young dragons. ​ The troupe was given a special scroll that would, upon completion and sealing, immediately send its letter to the ambassador -- the dragon known as Vristilistalamar (or Vrist, for short).
  
-The [[gaeleth:​places:​Black Feather Fort]] was cleaned out and cleaned up by the masons and carpenters Eingrim had hired. ​ Each of the rooms for the giants had been thirty feet tall, and about 300 square feet -- downright monastic for 15-20ft tall hill giants and ogres. ​ The rooms were restructured,​ with most being turned into two rooms, each with a height of about 15ft -- one on each floor restructured to three 10ft tall rooms (minus beams and flooring and other structures). ​ Stairs were built into the wide hallways or into the rooms themselves, and the giants'​ stairs were re-stepped to make life easier for much shorter humanoids. ​ By the time winter was over, the interior of the fort had been completely redone into something warm and comfortable.+The [[gaeleth:​places:​Black Feather Fort]] was cleaned out and cleaned up by the masons and carpenters ​[[gaeleth:​figures:​Eingrim]] had hired. ​ Each of the rooms for the giants had been thirty feet tall, and about 300 square feet -- downright monastic for 15-20ft tall hill giants and ogres. ​ The rooms were restructured,​ with most being turned into two rooms, each with a height of about 15ft -- one on each floor restructured to three 10ft tall rooms (minus beams and flooring and other structures). ​ Stairs were built into the wide hallways or into the rooms themselves, and the giants'​ stairs were re-stepped to make life easier for much shorter humanoids. ​ By the time winter was over, the interior of the fort had been completely redone into something warm and comfortable.
  
 New staff were hired by Eingrim and vetted by the troupe. ​ They hired a hunter, a cook, a maid, and some general ​ laborers that would also act as guards. ​ The maid was a kobold, which no one objected to.  The laborers were orcs, which made like interesting for the dwarf Jasper. ​ She was placed in charge of the orcs, which assuaged her dwarven sensibilities. New staff were hired by Eingrim and vetted by the troupe. ​ They hired a hunter, a cook, a maid, and some general ​ laborers that would also act as guards. ​ The maid was a kobold, which no one objected to.  The laborers were orcs, which made like interesting for the dwarf Jasper. ​ She was placed in charge of the orcs, which assuaged her dwarven sensibilities.

 Both crews were shaken, but Hiko's translation of the ledger, the children'​s obvious cries for home, and the body language of the three remaining slavers assuaged them. Both crews were shaken, but Hiko's translation of the ledger, the children'​s obvious cries for home, and the body language of the three remaining slavers assuaged them.
  
 +The next evening, the //Little Titan// made it into Teras. ​ They apparently had reservations at a cheap inn near the river, called the Black Rock.  Rather than stay there, they opted for the nicer Hospice of Strength. ​ They had noticed that Eingrim was getting chintzy with the money, given the abilities of the crew of the //Little Titan//, among other things.
  
 +Their return ship was the //Golden Lance//, which would take them to the '​new'​ ruins, and then on to Rilan. ​ The crew of the //Golden Lance// seemed drunk. ​ Their expectations lowered a notch.
  
-Notes to Continue:​\\ +The letter of write from a Thaumaturgist of Lok Magius, carried by a Guardian Paladin of Xoriah, easily secured them a copy of the nautical charts ​for the areas nearest the hidden continent. ​ The nautical charts indicated shoals and reefs -- as though there were a //sunken// hidden continent. 
-* trip downriver ​for navigation maps\\ + 
-* slavers discovered\\ +They also dropped in to a place known by the locals as 'The Magic Store',​ but officially called the Arcane Shield. ​ It sold quaint magical items, and was run by a middle-aged human called Madelyne, whom Hiko had known since she was a teen.  She and Hiko caught up on things for a bit, and she gave him a slight discount on some potions. ​ Madelyne had seen the Black Feather Troupe perform ​in Teras, before, and was pleased ​to meet Roland, the newest member ​of the troupe.
