Having successfully attained the answer to Sister Garaele's desired question, you travel back to Phandalin. The skies and roads are clear, and a day and half later, your arrival in town is heralded by a small procession of farmers shouting ahead of you that the Righteous Four are back.
OOC: Recruiting has been re-opened. While I take applications, what would you like to do? You could head to the Shrine of Luck to see Sister Garaele, do some shopping at Barthen's Provisions or the Lionshield Coster, or head to the Stonehill Inn to recuperate?
Nemeanstarts to make his way over to the temple “Lets first go to sister Garaele, and then check on Droop!” He was excited to share the news of the spellbook.
OOC: Maybe we can get Garaele to join the party, we could use a cleric lol
Saw the new post, it looks good! Love the “Honesty of Tyr” bit :)

Tarok nods and follows along with the others. "You guys took some solid hits earlier from those Hobgoblins, surprised you're still walking about" he adds.
Garaele is tidying up the Shrine of Luck when you approach from the Town Green. She glances up at you and straightens excitedly once she recognizes the familiar adventurers. She walks quickly toward you. "You've returned! Pray tell, did you have any luck?"
"Hello Sister Garaele!" Nemean bows his head and smiles as he greets the cleric. "We found the witch Agatha, and gave her the comb. You know doesn't matter if she is Tabaxi, Orc, or Banshee, a woman uh... ahem. Anyway your holiness... we did find that the hag had traded the spellbook of Bowgentle to the necromancer Tsernoth from Iriaebor." He stands proudly with a vacant grin on his face, hoping the clue would have more meaning for her than it did for him.

Garaele stares intently for a few seconds, as if gauging your honesty, but you quickly see a smile overtake her features. "That is all the information I need," she says coolly. She beckons Nemean forward. "My potions of healing are in the storeroom. Would you mind coming with me?"
"Tending the shrine isn't the only duty I have in this region. Have you ever heard of the Harpers?" The zealous young elf asks you as she digs through items on various shelves. "Not much is known about us, but for good reason. We are a network of individuals who possess a desire to enact positive change through information and secrecy. I urge you to join us! You clearly have what it takes; dealing with banshees is no small task. I obviously wasn't fit for it myself."
For Barty: (Unless the others are within earshot?)
Nemean leans in and whispers back to the Elf, "I have heard only stories and rumors of the Harpers, but perhaps this organization could be a good home for a hero like Nemean Goldenmane!" He beams while stroking his beard and mane considering the young woman's offer... then posed her a question, "Do the Harpers get along with those in the Lord's Alliance? Our dear friend Sildar is a member, and I would not want to jeopardize our friendship by joining your gang. Though I do confess the Alliance always seemed a bit stuff and uptight for my tastes."
OOC: How much would Nemean, a somewhat recently immigrant to Faerun, know about the power dynamics of the Lord's Alliance and the Harpers?
Garaele smiles, "We work with the Lord's Alliance often. Generally speaking, we are working toward the same goals. Though you are correct, they can be a bit too soldier-like for my tastes. We take a less direct approach in managing our members. What do you say?"
OOC: Nemean would have heard only the basics, but though not much is known of the Harpers, they are generally well respected.
"This is your pin. Keep it on your person, this is the Harper's symbol. Some agents choose to wear it openly, others keep it hidden; the choice is yours. Show this to another member of the organization and their resources are at your disposal. If the symbol is shown to you, we will expect the same. Welcome, Nemean. I grant you the title of Watcher," Garaele welcomes you warmly.
OOC: Harper's Pin has been added to Nemean's inventory
Nemean and Garaele return from the storeroom with three potions of healing, which she offers up gratefully. "It may not seem like much, but these are hard to find around here, I assure you," she says.
OOC: Determine who gets the potions, and then action is on the party. Where to?
Nemean smiles as he looks at the haul of healing potions. “I think one potion each for us righteous three seems fair, yes?” Asks Nemean as he hands potions to Cinis and Tarok.

"Hmmm" muses Nemean as he considers Cinis's critique. "Perhaps we can find a better name, what about... "The Triumvirate!" Anyway, regardless of what we call ourselves, lets see if Droop was able to clean up our new place!"
OOC: Check in on Droop and then make our way to the Inn, work for everyone?

The manor lies just as deserted as when you left it. The cellar below is much quieter and uneventful than your last trip, and a noise from the former common room leads you to find Droop, who is hard at work scrubbing bloodstains off the floor from your last trip here, turned away from you as you enter.
