Willie agrees, looking up brightly. "Yes! A bit to eat sounds wonderful. Some hot tea for everyone, and a large plate of biscuits."She looks pointedly at Yrwin, who must positively be starving. As a Kithkin, she naturally looks on the bright side of things, and soon begins to cheer up. She begins to plan everyone's meal in her head, clucking around like a mother hen fussing over her chicks, despite her being younger than anyone in the group. She starts to mutter to herself busily: "Poor Yrwin will need a bowl of stew in a bread bowl of course, to accompany his biscuits. And Archy, a good large pork belly sandwich. Darnic.. Darnic I should think would want a hearty meal. Potatoes, leeks, onions, and pork. Or would he prefer seared steak and grilled potatoes? Yes, yes. We'll start with the tea and biscuits, then move to the other items..."
Yrwins belly rumbles. "I'll have all that thank you, Willie". He pushes himself up on his feet and starts towards where they last saw lady Vown. "Come on! I'm huuuungry!"

Making your way back to the surface feels like centuries as your muscles and tummies ache. Reaching the surface, you still don't see sunlight since you are still down in the slums of Sharn. You hitch a ride on a skycoach back to the middle echelons where Yrwin and Willie recommended their own tavern - of course! In their home tavern, they arranged for the best seats in the house, one of the rare windows that had a view of the sky, and everyone enjoyed a great meal that filled their bellies. (-10 silvers to your pockets, + long rest)
After filling up, you all decided to head back to the Broken Anvil. There you see Lady Elaydren waiting in the lobby in a shimmering blue glamerweave gown. She has a House Cannith bodyguard on either side of her. She smiles as she notices you enter the tavern and says, "I have good timing I see. I trust you have good news?"

As such, we transition to the corner booth. Lady Vown sits across from you with a pleasant smile while her bodyguards stand at guard. They are clearly there to protect the lady, but it could also seem like they are trying to keep you in check. There are drinks, biscuits, and any sort of appetizer you'd like to have ordered.

"I'm glad you seem to have made it," Lady Elaydren Vown then gestures at Darnic's sling, "though I hope you made it in one piece? I'm happy to see the schema in our possession. Here." She snaps a finger and one of her guards drops a big bag o' silvers and gold on the table between you all. "You'll find 500 galifars worth of gold and sovereigns in that bag. Perhaps even a little extra for being so expedient with my request."

"Thank you gentlemen and, of course," she nods toward Willie, "lady. You have certainly lifted a great stress from my house and my shoulders. I may have need of you again in the future. Be sure to have your people check for messages near the house towers. I will send you a message that way rather than by one of my men... I understand one of them stabbed your door with a dagger and a note," she tsks as one of the guards shifts uncomfortably. "Rest assured the damage has been mended. I bid you pardon... I look forward to working with you again in the future."
With that, Lady Vown disappears along with the schema. She seems to have forgotten all about the journal. Once you find the time to count the money, you find what amounts to 700 galifars, its mixed coinage between galifars (gold) and sovereigns (silver), so divide the 700 as you'd like and feel free to give yourself the pile of money in any combo of gold and silver.

Archy is pleased to return to normal-ish life, but seeing the potential the use of magic presents, he starts studying the trade. He doesn't have the power his cuzkin have, but there's a spark there he hadn't noticed before.
While he's helping Yrwin in the kitchen one day, it's apparent that this is not Archy's forte. A small fire starts, a tin of valuable spices topples into the flames. Smoke billows from the doors and windows... Once the fire is stopped and the smoke clears, something strange... A beautiful girl? No, Just a shadow? Or A demon? No. It's an owl... Fortuona 'Tuon' Aethem Devi Paendrag has joined the party.
"Hey! I was saving those spiCES FOR A SET OF GRILLED RIBS." Out of nowhere, mid sentence Yrwin goes through a serious growth spurt, all of a sudden he is as tall, if not a foot taller than a human. Extremely confused, and a little scared he stands completely still staring at his hands and belly. After about about two (!?!) minutes he shrinks back into his normal, rotund self. ".. Nice owl?.." , he stutters before finishing the dish they were making.
After her and her cuzkin's near death experience, Wilhelmina is glad to return to normal city life. "A kithkin has no business crawling around in the sewers,"she thinks to herself. "A kithkin's place is at home and hearth, shared with warm fire and good food."
Willie is glad to see Yrwin back in the kitchens, where he belongs. She puts the unpleasant adventuring business in the back of her mind, and sets her attention on important things. Over the next several weeks, Willie turns on her charm to full blast. She asks friends, girlfriends, and friends of friends. She is searching for the right someone.
One day, Willie comes to Yrwin's restaurant. She sits in a booth with her new friend, a lovely Kithkin girl of twenty three summers. Her hair is the color of october hay. She has a broad, earnest smile, and an ample bosom. Willie knows that looks aren't everything, but they sure do help. Her new friend is also no stranger to food, and is pleasantly curvy with a womanly waist. In short, she's everything that Willie has been looking for.
Willie crosses her toes excitedly, and leans in. "We'll order the pheasant stew with a side of toast and marmalade. He always brings out the stew himself. Oh, I can't wait to see his face!"
Willie makes her order, and when Yrwin comes to the table to serve the stew, she stands up to give him a huge hug, dimples and all. "Yrwin! What a surprise! It's so great to see you. I had absolutely no idea you were working today. Oh, where are my manners. This is my friend Bronwen. Bronwen, this is Yrwin. Yrwin is my cuzkin, and he's a wonderful chef."
Wille smiles, and uses her open palm on the small of Yrwin's back to shove him forward, with the full force of a monk with twenty seasons' training. Yrwin could have been a full sized ogre, and that push would have still dislodged him.
Bronwen smiles pleasantly. "Oh, hello! I'm Bronwen, but that's so formal. You can call me Bonnie. It's very nice to meet you." She extends a hand as Yrwin stumbles forward.
Darnic has spent his time on a new mission. There’s evidently been a monster going about during the nights. Eye witness accounts describe it as a hulking humanoid of white ooze with burning red markings covering its body, like one massive dragonmark, as it’s piercing red eyes flower from the darkness. From the crime scenes, only criminals have been targeted as of yet, but those targets have been brutally killed and partially consumed. So far, he has no leads on this vigilante serial killer.

"Maybe we should stop and get a bite before we head to the Broken Anvil." Archy suggests, "We should be in fighting shape in case things go south."

Yrwin immediately looks for any snacks at the table, forgetting about the conversation all-together.
