Wild Bunch #18

Arriving in Topside, the Wild Bunch said goodbye to Madigan Made, who claimed she'd find a crew to reclaim her stolen ship and kill her old crew who betrayed her

Safe from Pain and Pain Itself had a contact in the city named Vik who they said would help get them home, but Pain Itself had a checkered past with Vik, so they asked the group to speak to Vik and secure them passage on their behalf.

On their way, the group hit up the Long Way Home, a rowdy tavern in docks district

• Within, Meowko spied on a woman involved in a conversation with a barnacle covered squid person who demanded a ship and crew to avenge the death of his cousin. The woman expelled him from the tavern when the conversation became too abrasive.

• The Wild Bunch approached the woman, who went by the name Fabiola Valentin, the personal assistant to Lord Maquis Duke Baron King, a local antiquities collector.

  • The group asked Fabiola where they could find some limbs for Jeremiah, and she gave them a two-faced platinum piece, which they could use to gain access to a place called The Basement, an underground black market.

The group made their way to the open air auction called the House

• There, Winnifred bought a block of cheddar and Tricks bid and won a contraption called the Bleeding Onion from an artificer

  • That artificer offered to take them to the Basement, as he was headed there himself, but quickly backed out when he saw the coin Fabiola had given them,

  • Meanwhile, Winnifred found a dwarven man who said they could regenerate Jemiah's limbs at great expense in a temple within the city.

The Wild Bunch decided to take their chances in the Basement, and went to the aqueducts below the city to pursue their quest for Jemiah's limbs.
