S1E3: Ubersreik adventures/Heart of Glass (part 1)

Events : For the next 2 weeks they pondered what to call themselves. “I kind of like ‘ Sister Agnes’ Orphans ’.” Gary gloomily responded, “Feels right considering I just learned my mother-in-law hates me.” Katja consoled him, “Cheer up; I can envision glorious weather ahead of us.” Mallorhan, on the other hand, wasn’t so cheerful, “Whatever job we find, we’d best double-check the pay as rumor has it, counterfeit coins are circulating in the streets.” Brandiwyn pondered, “Remember that Strigany mystic on the barge we worked? I’m still trying to make sense of some cryptic omen she foretold. Something about ‘for the love of the devil’.” Endeavors/Down time : Gary returned to his training master as he sought instructions for his newly acquired blunderbuss.

Thus, he could only hope no-one watched him stash his coin high up in a tree.

“So, what should we call ourselves?” How about ‘ Sister Agnes’ Orphans ’? “Ahhh, don’t it just tug at yer heart.” Yew ain’t got no heart. “True, but I got an empty coin-purse that needs filling .” With an elf amongst us, maybe we should call ourselves ‘ The Odd Squad ’. “Naw, I think we need something that advertises our business, like ‘ Get er Done Gang .’ Implies we can finish a job.” Henryk  (Bill) noble Guard/Sentry…the Gambler  ? (Tony) Fisherman… absent Mallorhan (Brian) wood-elf Messenger Gary  (Matt) Guard/Sentry Sister Agnes  (Duane) noble Nun, prayerful worshiper of Shallya Katja  (Geoff) noble Entertainer/Singer…an attractive wench…distractor… absent Days later : The barge slowly plied the River Verfelfluss, heading south toward Grausee. Henryk avoided looking over the railing, fearful he’d start dry-heaving again. “Why’d you accept a job on a boat?!” Gary sat on a crate, using hi
