Okay...if that predates my actions maybe I'll just Mountain Stance, move into Red's old space, and Shove YELLOW instead.

Yakuthiel clears the dock with aplomb.

The gun-blast singes the dockworker. He yells in pain "They're playing for keeps, y'all!"

The monk barrels through, sending another far into the sink.

The singed one continue to press, and just slides a sword into the brutish cook.

Emdi is untrained in Athletics, so he'll just fire nonlethal arrows.

Nagaikaze was just preparing to give Orange a thump using Stand Still but holds off, noticing that they are quite damaged already and possibly close to unconsciousness. He keeps an eye out for Red who is less damaged.

Having been previously stabbed Nagaikaze, hardens his stance even further and rushes to intercept ORANGE. He decides to try and soften him up a little in the hope he'll be more receptive to reason then. After a few swift swings he calls out to any of the Stevedor's who'd listen: " You'll be safer in the water, with a chance to parlay, than staying up here getting bruises!"

A lesson in contrasts as Dran'Tilt absolutely blasts one of the dockers while the professor shows a hint of mercy. The monk fortifies before landing two crucial blows.

The remaining stevedore climbs up on the dock. Do they have a plan in mind?

The stevedore braces against the shove and doesn't budge. Emdi's first arrow pin the docker's cloak to the pin, but the second drops him and he slumps awkwardly to the ground, hanging like a marionette.

The cornered worker tries to psych out the monk, but only makes things worse. His blade does find bone, at least.

Dran'Tilt finds himself covered in chrysanthemum petals as Jun-Mei extends the blessings of the Lady still further.

She then grips her glaive and strikes at Nagaikaze's attacker.

With one powerful sweep, the glaive nearly fells the young one and Song Jun-Mei forces his surrender. Seeing the battle lost, the other tugs at his cloak (still pinned to the dock) and drops his weapon as well.

"We were just trying to get a bounty, surely you understand we meant no real harm to ye". he admits.

Well done all, we now await the start of Act II in a few days. You have the benefit of a 1-hour rest while the ship unloads. Feel free to interrogate the stevedores more if you wish.

The cleans up his weapon, relises it and most of all lets a circle of smoke move in the air.

A bounty you say? Which bounty? Who hired you? What for indeed?

**HOUSE GM ANNOUNCEMENT**
With an influx of Pathfinders coming to the docks aboard the [i]Seekers’ Quest’s[i/] support craft, most of the docked courier ships and barges push off of the piers to make room for the incoming invasion of armed adventurers.

The Docking Procedures condition is now in effect.

Table GMs, you have 2 days to wrap up your current mission and prepare for Act 2.

Emdi uses his fishing rod to reel the unconscious stevedores out of the water. He'll threaten to put a live fish inside their shirt unless they talk.

"What do you mean? That the target of a bounty is here, or that you wished to be assigned a bounty to carry out?"

"Nah, the Mantis put out a bounty on any "armed group" that might be here to disrupt things. We were just protecting the port, see. Like I said, no hard feelinigs, after all, you all cleaned our clocks. Hopefully, you aren't here to mess with the Dispatch. They might clean yours..." The stevedore admits, freeing himself from the stuck arrow.

”We came here for the Dispatch too, but as you can see we have only just arrived. All this could have been avoided if we had been given better information about where we should go. Could you point us in the right direction please.”

Clearly looking to earn your favor (to ignore their transgressions), the stevedore responds to the monk.

"Aye, if you still want to tussle with the Dispatch lot, you should talk to this aiuvarin that goes by “The Curator.” He offers gold for information about the Dispatch’s activities and safehouses and always pays his debts rather than forcing compliance through threats and intimidation. I can make you a map to get to him, if you want."

"That would be of use to us. Have you had dealings with this...'The Curator'?"

"No. No. No. We'd have no use of that. But we have heard from others... he conducts his business from a back-alley moneylending house --- Baccara Holdings."

He limps over to the shoreline and sketches a crude map for you with his boot in the sandy dirt.

"There. That'll get you there. Not sure what mercenary company you all are with, but thanks for not killing or drowning us today. Good luck."

A circle of smoke…

Well we have the next station to go.

”Did you receive any instructions about dealing with the awful Pathfinder Society?”
And then after hearing the response,
“We are the aw…We are the Pathfinder Society. I appreciated that you were pulling your punches to start with. If you wish to turn a page and join a more legitimate organisation you may wish to consider it.”

The stevedore continues to spill as he helps pull his unconscious mates further ashore.

"We've been here about a year, but no - we don't go outside of town. Not even out of the docks themselves really. Told not to. We've heard the same rumors you did. If you ask me, I think the Dispatch might even be in league with the dead that walk."

As the talk turns to Pahfinders, he looks confused.

"Don't know anything about that, like I said, we were just trying to pick up some easy coin. We saw the lesh and the girl and thought it might be easy pickins. You sure showed us what for."

"They said mercenaries might be showing up. Just protect the port..." he shrugs.
