- Trajan interrogated the trio of kobolds at the cabin...
- He learned that the kobolds serve Nerva. Nerva had been here, staying at the cabin, but fled when the group arrived.
- Nerva's pattern is as follows: sleep in the morning, plan in the evening, hunt at night.
- He learned that Nerva originally came from Quiet Mountain, stays at a roadside motel between there and Raske, and has a couple of other hiding spots in the manors surrounding Raske.
- He learned that Nerva used to be a normal person, but one time, he awoke and spoke of a dream about dragon. From that day forward, he was granted powers like teleporation, invisibility, fire magic, and a poisonous breath weapon.
- The kobolds have no real recollection of how they came to meet Nerva. Simply, they awoke one day, and knew they were to serve him.
- When asked of Nerva's father, the kobolds told lies to Trajan.
- The kobolds made a blood pact with Trajan, swearing to serve him. The kobolds were allowed to go free.
- Night fell upon the group, and on their way back to Raske, the group was ambushed...
- The fire mephit from the cabin, with a small army of insectoid and reptilian hybrids, surprised the group in hopes of killing them. Nerva simply hoped that they would slow down the group long enough...
- Managirl and Del seemed to make a good tag team, as the combination of their area burst magic seemed effective.
- Roan had trouble from the get going, being attacked by an ankheg, and twisting his ankle badly in the escape from it.
- Kembu (being advised by Klein), ended up battling and ultimatly killing the ankheg.
- Roan's sniper shot provided the opening needed on the Mephit, which Del scored the killing blow on, for revenge against the creature harming Kiki.
- Roan ended up staying behind from the rest of the group, as his twisted ankle would only slow them down.
- Kembu, Trajan, Managirl, and Del arrived in Raske. There, they discovered that the inn had been set on fire.
- Kembu ordered Klein to stay behind with the workers at the dock, who were attempting to get some kind of mana-tech device with a hose working to help put out the fire.
- At the inn, the group learned from Sheriff Oku that there was a little girl, a woman, and a man trapped inside, along with the halfling innkeeper (Rukkevinta).
- The inn seemed to be infested with a number of creatures. Kobold slingers, fire elementals, animated suits of armors, and even a skeleton mage.
- Kembu beheaded a kobold slinger, and got the other one to surrender afterwards. It was arrested by Oku.
- Trajan helped Kembu battle the fire elementals outside the inn's main entrance.
- Managirl and Del, with Managirl's magic, flew up to the second floor where they discovered that a little girl was trapped in a room. However, between the girl and MG/Del was an animated suit of armor and a fire elemental. After summoning a frog spirit, Del and MG did battle with the suit of armor and the fire elemental. The suit of armor got in a critical hit on MG, but the pair managed to clear the hallway.
- Kembu rushed into the inn, but discovered that a suit of armor was waiting for him. The animated creature smashed into him, the critical hit knocking Kembu into a dying state. It crushed his hip in the process.
- Del provided support from the second floor to Trajan and Kembu, and Kembu was ultimatly revived by Trajan using a healing pill on him. Kembu, in a lot of pain, charged into the inn to continue battling fire elementals and to save the man and woman he saw hiding in the bar room.
- Managirl went into the room to save the little girl, but was confronted with a skeleton mage.
- Roan came into town, behind the group, by going along the main road. Upon arriving at the inn, he had a nice vantage point that let him see something the others didn't. Escaping from the back entrance of the inn was the figure (Nerva) cloaked in ash and smoke.
- Roan wasted no time, taking several shots at Nerva who fled. Roan scored a critical hit, which provided a blood trail for Roan to follow.
- Roan chased Nerva all the way across town, taking a few pot shots at him when he could. More and more, Nerva became wounded and desperate.
- Nerva teleported into an empty house, and began searching for something that could help him against Roan.
- Roan discovered him, and managed to sneak in to line up a perfect shot.
- Roan bloodied Nerva, who in his desperation, cut the gas line to the house, and blew it up.
- Roan managed to escape in time (only after taking another shot at Nerva), but the force of the explosion severely wounded Roan. After the explosion of the house, Nerva couldn't be found by Roan.
