The remaining tusked-frog hops away and hides withing the manor.
Afterwards, the PCs can recover Ahksiva’s silver religious symbol of Groetus from the wall. The religious symbol is well polished and heavy. In addition, several bags stuffed with magical reagents and gifts offered to the prophet can be found with a short survey of the area.
Conclusion
After the PCs have dealt with the threat posed by Ahksiva, their return journey through the swamp is uneventful. By the time the PCs return to the city, Venture-Captain Hestia Themis has taken custody of Reast Mycer.
Without the guidance and rallying figure of Ahksiva, the cult known as Groetus’s Chosen quickly dissolves. The neighborhood of Admiral’s Fen sees a dramatic decrease in violent crime and vandalism over the next several months. Attempts at draining the neighborhood begin in earnest again. The people of Cassomir no longer fear walking the streets.
Venture-Captain Hestia is ecstatic with the Pathfinders' work. She promises to do all she can to keep hope alive in Admiral’s Fen and ensure that monsters who would prey on the downtrodden can’t find their way into the city. So long as people have hope and faith, they won’t turn to anger and false prophets.
