After much deliberation, Abhy slams down the paper. Reading the recent "Report of Minoc: Volume one".
Abhyavarshini (Ab-ya-var-shee-nee) is a name not well known to several of the newer residents of the Chesapeake shard. He is formerly know as Lox. He was given the alias of Abhyavarshini through several high classed nobles and council members trying to protect his identity. One of which is the new governor of Jhelom, Kal. Many of them are unhappy with his revealing of his true identity, but Abhy felt the time was right. The king and all governing bodies are now aware of this... no going back now.
Being previously guilded with Cotton in several guilds and being a gm over a few guilds he has joined, Abhy knows what the man is capable doing. None of this is surprising. When Abhy returned to this land from what feels like decades of being gone, things have changed. Boy have they changed...
Cotton Eye Joe is one of the commanders of the largest guilds in the land, TOKE. He was also starting to set up a campaign for governor of Minoc. I've read about it and seen the signs, but had far more important matters to attend to than worry about politics. Man, do I hate politics!!
I find myself thinking, how could anyone follow this man? This selfish monstrosity of a human being? He was one of the several who salvaged my home when I was gone for years on end. One of the ones who would deceive and steal to fill his own coffers. And the people want to follow him? Have the people of Minoc, or even Britannia been brain washed...???
Looking towards his faithful companions after reading the paper, Abhy speaks up. "Men. This has gone on long enough." Necro and Amitlu look towards him. Claire is on the floor napping, not paying much attention and Turles is passed out in a nearby bed sleeping off a week long bender.
Necro says, "What you talking about, Abhy?" Necro has been here mostly through the whole ordeal. Taking missions here and there, but well aware of Cotton's antics and recent resurgence. "Yeah, what you talking about man?" Amitlu grumbles. He is a recent recruit with Claire. Both are former allies of both Cotton and myself. They had a recent falling out with Cotton, and decided enough was enough and finally defected.
"This trash has got to stop!!" Abhy yells, again slamming the paper on the table. Arthur steps through the door... "What's this yelling? I just got done with despise. No Tokie today." Tokie, a reference to the guild of TOKE that UHOH often uses.
Abhy shakes his head. "I'm ready to take this man down. This paper is bull@$#&!. Has Cotton brainwashed these people? Of course his men are going cover up his lies. What else is he going to do with the money he is embezzling from the city's coffers? They are all under his command and guildmates of him. He keeps them line." "True. But how do you plan to prove it?" Amitlu grumbles.
"Yeah, I mean, our best stealther took pictures of the evidence and people still don't believe us." Necro exclaims. "Its not like we can go in and start snooping around the town ourselves..." Necro's eyes widen. He knows he made a mistake saying that and he hadn't even finished his sentence. Abhy stood up immediately. "THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT WE ARE GOING TO DO!!" he yells. "....me and my big mouth" Necro says dejectedly. "Round up the horses. I am sure we can find out something ourselves. It's almost midnight. Let's get moving."
Necro and Abhy take off for the moongate. Its but a short way from their Felucca hideout. Quickly emerging next to Minoc, they get off and stealthily sneak in to town. "Uhm... There's not many guards. Isn't that weird?" Necro mentions. "Shhhh. What's going on up here?"
They quickly move up on to a crowd gathered around the Mining guild building. "Holy...." Necro yells. A man just jumped off a building, committing suicide right in front of their eyes!! It looks like 3 more are about to follow his lead.
"Necro, quickly, get into your citizen attire, we have to stop this immediately!!" Abhy yells. Necro quickly dons his clothing and sneaks up the back. A citizen is yelling for them to stop, begging for help. Necro is attempting to soothe the remaining 3, as Abhy is yelling out promises to remove Cotton from office....
A bit later when things calm down and the other 3 citizens are contained and relaxed, Abhy and Necro are speaking with the citizen who was very gracious for their help. We found out his name is Leonardo. He has been a citizen of Minoc for many a years. He asked if we were really going to get Cotton removed from office. "We will try our hardest, Leo. That is a promise." Abhy states. Little did they know, Leo knew quite a bit...
Leo scribbled down a note of a few things and stuffed it in a letter. At this time its about 2am. He says to us... "I am going home. You won't open this letter until I am out of sight. From there... Good luck." Necro and Abhy looked at each other puzzled but took the letter. They thanks Leo and watched him walk away. "Did he just poof? What the heck..." Necro exclaims. Not paying him much mind, Abhy is ripping open the letter....
---- Check the governor's house around 3am, and stare out the tavern window on the East side at 5:30am. Have the lights off ----
Abhy is confused. He hands it to Necro. "Yup. It's a trap. We're going down. We're yelling timber....." Necro sings. Abhy does not look amused. "Sorry. But yeah, this seems awful." "No choice. Gotta do it." Abhy exclaims....
Around 3am, Abhy watches Necro's back as he fiddles with the lock. "Hurry up!" Abhy nudges. "I am a mage not a lockpicker..... Got it. C'mon hurry." Necro yells. As they look around Cotton's governor house, they see nothing unusual. "What are we looking for, Necro?" Abhy states. "How am I suppose to know? What about this book on his desk?" Necro jokes as he starts to read it. "Ohhh crap! This is it!!" Necro yells loudly!! Suddenly a guard bursts into the room. Necro ducks down with the book, and Abhy is standing there, deer in the lantern lights.
"Who goes there?" the guard yells out. Think Abhy think.... "Oh, its just me. Enrico. I was just straightening up Cotton's room and ... I saw a mouse... I hate mice!! We are just waiting on the governor!! Nothing weird going on here!!" The guard yells out.."I thought it stunk of traitor in here! Guards assist me!" and then silence....

".... I mean me! ME! Nothing to see here..." Abhy manages to screech out. The guard looks at him with a scold. And then laughter fills the room as the guard cracks up. "You cleaning people sure are jumpy. Are you finished? I will escort you out. The little mouse won't hurt you with me here!!"
An hour later Necro meets Abhy out behind the tavern. "Seriously? Enrico?" Necro states. "Shut up. Did you get any info?" "Yep, two things. One, Ben the apprentice Necromancer is actually Cotton's alchemist. Two, there's shipments with keys in that book. I'll go look around, you go to the tavern." Necro says. "Alright, convene here again around 6am".
Seemingly dozing off staring out the window when suddenly 3 figures meet up RIGHT OUTSIDE the tavern window... *muffled speech* "....Have all the shipments arrived to our ports? I don't want to be seen" "....Come quickly my Lord, danger lurks around every corner...." Abhy looks closely.... he thinks to himself... Is that Cotton? And Eartha, the trade minister? And is that guard... Leonardo...?
Abhy meets Necro behind the tavern again. "Quickly! Come here." Necro exclaims. They walk back in to the tavern and Necro nudges Abhy and points at a strange figure in the corner. "That's Ben..." Necro whispers. "I will cause a scene, go look in that barrel...." Abhy looks at him confused as Necro runs to the middle of the tavern. "Vas Ylem Rel!" poof. Necro turns into a bear. "Vas Ylem Rel!" He turns into a chicken. "Vas Ylem Rel!" poof. Necro turns into a slime. "Guess that's my cue." Abhy moves quickly.
WOW! Bombshell. Abhy thinks immediately. No alchemist in Minoc, my behind! Cotton is such a liar!! Look at this stuff. Nice job Necro!! Abhy quickly takes a picture and scurries out the front door with Necro following behind as a naked woman.... At least, I hope that's Necro...
