After navigating through the city of Orabyr, our adventurers soon find themselves at the Killer Cutlass. It is a disreputable tavern, home to thieves and crooks. But according to young Prince Tristan, their only hope in finding medical help for Phaidra. Rastus, in human form, attempted to find help within the tavern, but was tossed out onto the street by what appeared to be a band of surly pirates. Watching from the shadows, Jakatu and Dragoknight almost sprang to their lycanthropic friend's aid until a familiar voice caused them to pause.

High Marshall Steadfast emerged from the shadows challenging the pirates and claiming that Rastus was under his protection.  Confused by this the pirates look ready for a fight.  But is the High Marshall truly there to help or will he try to hinder the adventurers again while Phaidra's life hangs in the balance?
