Gwenhwyfar flies back with Destinée to the boggard's temple. She runs down the tunnel and turns left to the entrance under the Ladies Light. She flies down to the lower beach and hurries to tell everyone to pack up. "Oh good. You're here too." she says to Niamh. "Please come. I stopped a ship. We don't need to walk to Magnimar. But we need to be fast."
Telling Abomentolor to cast fly on everyone she sends them on their way out of the dungeon and to the ship through the boggard's temple. She then grabs the golem and through dimension door moves it to the ship.
"Oh yay! Audience!" Niamh says happily and obviously very pleased. "Apple pie is in my backpack. And please feed all the sailors too. I never want to see- no I never want to eat apple pie again!"
She raises her violin and starts hopping a beat. And then she starts to play the instrument.
Abomentolor has fun flying superman style through the tunnel and then up into the sky leading the formation into a swoop onto the ship. "Yeeeeha!"
Tauriell grabs some of Sorshen's clothes out of the wardrobe and packs them onto her backpack. Flying with all the stuff she collected over the time and the additional clothes is not easy. Where Abomentolor flies like superman Tauriell looks more like a bumblebee swaying from one side of the tunnel to the other. As she is out in the open sky it becomes easier but not faster. She is glad as she finally lands on the ship and can drop all the stuff she brought along. "Oh look. The flag of good old Korvosa!" she says with a grin towards Oriana and Helanda.
"We're ready." Gwenhwyfar tells the captain. "Where can we bunk ourself?"
"Our first mate will show you to your cabins. And this thing" he says pointing to the glass golem "has to be tied somewhere in the cargo bay that it doesn't fall or step on something if we get into rough sea." It is clear that he is not really comfortable with this small army on his boat.
he orders.
The winds are good and the sea is calm and the night is uneventful. As the sun brightens the sky at the horizon again but is not yet risen the Irespan comes into sight.
Gwenhwyfar stands at the bow of the ship waiting for the dun to come up. "Isn't it beautiful to be under the sky again and seeing the sun rise?" she says in anticipation.
"It is beautiful to be next to you as the sun rises indeed." Jimmy says with a smile
"Do you have any other interests in your life?" Gwenhwyfar asks chuckling.
"Well I would like to see what business opportunities there are to be had in town. It would be nice if we could make the Temple self sufficient." Jimmy says thinking, "I also would love to go see my parents with you. I haven't really found anything really that held my interest for all too long."
"I guess we're going to scare Mrs. Heidmarch to death first. For your parents we'll need a good plan how to tell them without them getting a heart attack." Gwenhwyfar replies.
"And for the temple I want a real cleric. Where do they grow them? I never knew one besides Abstalar. And he has been there in Sandpoint since ever."
"Didn't Mrs Heidmarch say there was a temple to Sarenrae? We could go ask them." Jimmy says thinking, "As for my parents, I plan on finding a way to look like my old self."
"No. There is only our shrine." Gwenhwyfar replies. "Where do you think you can find a wizard mighty enough to change you back?" she asks.
"Well I planned on asking Mrs Heidmarch after we scare her. We could ask around town. I am sure there has to be a cleric somewhere." Jimmy says thinking
Tauriell leans on the ships rail looking at the coast and listening in on the conversation. "There are a lot of temples with clerics. Pharasma, Abadar, Desna, Erastil. As Runelord of Lust I would suggest you try the Temple of Calistria"
"You know we need a cleric of Sarenrae. Also on that note, did you grab some clothes for our joke on Mrs Heidmarch?"
"I thought you wanted a cleric to solve your little problem here." she replies lifting her boobs with her hands. "And sure I brought half the wardrobe. Mostly garments that one would at least consider to wear in public but also one or two of the typical ones where people ask you if you have chest hair or if your neckline is cut far too deep."
"When we get back to the manor I will need to get into the house and then change into one of the more interesting ones. Then I can go find Mrs Heidmarch."
"If you want to really scare her Niamh could cast invisibility on my and then I move us together into her office." Gwenhwyfar jokes trying not to burst out in laughter. "But I don't think she will laugh at all."
With a deep voice and saking her index finger at Jimmy she says "I'm Runelord Sorshen and you will pay for sending pathfinders into my hideout. I will fondle you to death."
"I think teleporting me in is a fantastic idea. But I am sure everyone else wants to see as well." Jimmy says thinking
"But I can bring one more at most." Gwenhwyfar replies.
"Well Niamh could cast invisibility on herself and Abomentolor and sneak in, and then you can take Tauriell and Myself with you, perhaps?"
"I don't think I would dare to do that. We could all go invisible and you knock at the door of the manor. But if we magically appear in her office we won't hear the end of it." Gwenhwyfar replies.
"Well then that is what we do." Jimmy says with a smile
After another hour the ship entered the harbour and is tied tightly to the docks of Magnimar.
"I suppose you're taking the glass golem along when knocking at Mrs. Heidmarch's door?" Gwenhwyfar asks. "You could put on the right clothes already on the ship. Then we can head immediately to the manor."
"I a not all too keen on walking through the streets in what we found me in, and yes, the golem will be coming with." Jimmy replies
"I could try to disguise all of us as a large wagon full of hay. I don't think you want that kind of attention."
"Hey look there! Who is this half naked woman leading a large glass woman through half of Magnimar!" Tauriell dramatizes.
"I have a cloak. I'll borrow you that. But walking into the estate and to the guest house to change takes all the surprise out of it." Gwenhwyfar objects.
"I think the cloak will be fine. And it is alright if we draw some attention. I just don't want 'me' drawing attention."
The captain approaches the group. "If it's not too inconvenient for you I would like to have you off board before the regular customers arrive to unload their goods."
"If you choose so. I'll follow in a safe distance." Tauriell replies chuckling as she imagines how this will work out. "But don't forget to exchange your ranseur with the guisarme. Mrs. Heidmarch is the type who might recognize this error."
"I just need t head below deck for a moment and then we shall be on out way. Gwen, may I have your cloak please?" Jimmy says, and then commands the Golem to go wait on the docks
"I'll come along. Or do you want to get out of your armor alone?" Gwenwhyfar replies and follows Jimmy. "We'll be off your ship in a few minutes." she tells the captain.
Under deck she helps Jimmy to take off the armor, hands him the cloak, returns on deck and leaves the ship to wait with the golem for him.
Jimmy gets changed into one of the diaphonous garments, dons the cloak, grabs the guisarme and carries all his things to the dock to have someone else carry them. "Let us be on our way then." Jimmy says before commanding the Golem to follow him
Tauriell packs up all the stuff. Everything that is bulk cargo, like coins and gems and other small, sturdy and not sharp she puts in her sack. She wants to convince the glass golem to carry it. But Jimmy was faster and is already on her way.
"Ah, s&@#." the elf says to herself. She checks her collection of weapons that make her look like a golf bag and walks with the heavy sack after that carnival procession at some twohundred feet distance.
Abomentolor has everything he needs on his body and no heavy luggage. He walks along with Tauriell as whistles a merry song.
So Jimmy, Niamh and Gwenwhyfar walk up front followed by the golem. The people stare and whisper "Is it time for the fight at the golemworks already? That's in spring isn't it?" Some simply stand in awe, others run for cover.
Tauriell and Abomentolor follow in a safe distance and enjoy the view of the people reacting.
The group arrives unhindered at Heidmarch Manor. Niamh casts invisibility on Gwenhwyfar and herself.
Jimmy walks through the gate and up to the house, telling the Golem to stand there. She knocks on the door and waits
As always it takes some time and then Margaret opens the door "Good morning. What can I..." she stops mid sentence as she looks up and sees the golem in the background. She is frozen wide eyed and mouth open.
"Please tell Mrs Heidmarch to come outside." Jimmy says with a smile.
Tauriell hushes into the park and hides in the pavilion.
"Sure." Margaret replies curt and closes the door again.
Jimmy drops the cloak and waits
It takes unusually long but finally Mrs. Heidmarch opens the door. She is dressed in her usual dress, fully equipped and staff in hand. "Good morning. I'm Sheila Heidmarch. And you are?"
She tries to appear relaxed and polite but you can feel the tension.
"I am sure you know exactly who I am." Jimmy says with a smile
"And who are all the people behind the door who you aren't introducing me to?"
"Have we met? Sorry I don't remember you." Mrs. Heidmarch replies going through her memory where she might have seen this woman before. But as she searches for the living she has no clue. She ignores the question about the other people.
