The bard walks back in fine spirits. A girl was saved, a woman returned to her beloveded, and the team sent several hags back to whatever layer of the hells they came from. He whistled softly as they entered the camp. The Vistani would have cause to celebrate, and they didn't seem to need much of a reason to throw down.
He is interested in the girls tale of what happened. His ears perk up at Lorelei's question.

Arrigal walks carefully away from the longboat, before putting back on his boots. I have seen him only once or twice, both times fishing alone in that small boat. I wish I knew what pact he had with the hag. Not a good one, nor was he Vistani by his dress! Annabelle how did he take you?
The tears fell down her face again and she grabbed Arrigals hand tighter and put out her other for Lorelei to take. He told me he knew a place where the sweet chestnuts were this big! She used her hand to make a large round sign. When I asked if my friends could come, he said it was a secret, that I was old enough to go with him alone. I didn't like his reply so I kicked him in the knee and tried to run. I wasn't fast enough. He managed to trip me then tied up my hands and feet and gagged me when I called out. That's when he took me to the lake. I struggled uncle, just as much as I could, to hopefully dislodge the gag. That's when he hit me, next I knew was when you all arrived.
"If he's not Vistani, where would he have come from? Are there people living around here besides the Vistani?" Crisaryn asks. She listened quietly to what Annabelle described of the man's actions. She was proud of the way she had tried to fend for herself.
She then turns to Illmirth. "You all were able to defeat the hag? I think the man was likely killed. He sank down into the water at least. I wonder though if there are more hags. Seems they keep popping up."
"Arrigal spoke of the hags getting into the lake from the sea when the river swells, and are sometimes trapped here when the water levels go back down. Apparently the Vistani have already killed a few, he thinks this one may have just been missed. It seems to me that you can barely take a step, or swimming stroke, in Barovia without something trying to kill you!"

Arrigal nodded to himself about Annabelles fight, he'd have to teach her knife fighting and make sure she had daggers for self defence. This would not happen again.
He turned to Crisaryn. No not Vistani, maybe a human married or living with the Dusk Elves here. We'll have to investigate, maybe Ellis would be diplomatically better than the Vistani chief of this landholding. He pauses, can any of you heal? The boy needs healing or his back will scar. I'll set him free from the hunters tent for you.
He turns to Illmirth As for the hag, we killed two others this year, the river running to the sea ran high, this last one would see the whole coven destroyed. Barovia seems to attract them.
Tomorrow starts the three day festival in Vallaki, stay with Ellis this night, then head for the towns festivities fresh in the early morning. We have much to celebrate.

"Thank you Arrigal. A hot meal would be good," Crisaryn says. She's eager to get back to the camp and follows along briskly.

The goliath girl is also in good spirits and gives a cheerful back slap to Illmirth. It has been a good day.
