Pharast 23rd - A Bandit in the lap

The night passes pretty uneventfully, apart from the small incident of Falgrim Sneer trying to break free from his bonds during the night.  However without a dedicated 'Use Rope' skill that he wouldn't have invested points into anyway, Falgrim's incompetence at escaping was overshadowed by Kyrander's ability to tie excellent knots.  This resulted in the captive bandit rolling down the hill into the thicket of fangberries and spending several minutes trying to lie very still as the party, in no particular hurry, retrieve him from his predicament.

In the morning the party head north, back to the hermit Bokken, in order to hand over the quantities of fangberries that he had asked for.  Delighted with the fragrant batch of fruit, the herbalist offers a couple of freebie potions along with a permanent discount on his stock and so the party take advantage of this by placing an order for a number of cure light wounds potions which they will come back to collect the next day.

As the group enter into Oleg’s trading post, Kyrander throws the tied up Falgrim almost into the lap of Kesten Garess [who as you may recall is a knight belonging to House Garess.  Kersten and a small group of soldiers had arrived in response to Oleg's request for aid, after our party had taken care of the problem.  Kersten had also promised a reward of the group could locate one Mr Falgrim Sneer]. Kesten almost chokes on his afternoon ale, as the tired and beaten Falgrim lands on him and starts begging to be taken away from the bunch of Neanderthals.

Shortly afterwards, Kesten and his men gather their steeds along with their prisoner and leave for Restov so Falgrim can be brought to justice (and will bring back the cache of weapons that the wanted man's bounty promised).

Taking the advantage of having comfy beds reserved, the group decide to spend rest of the day in rest and sleep at Oleg’s.
