-Upon arrival in Weftwell, the situation is chaotic. The party is accosted by townspeople with multiple accounts of the raid. They establish that several orphanage workers and Tender priests were kidnapped, although the orphans are all accounted for. A couple of townspeople offer a reward for the return of their sister, although the adventurers they speak to are too noble-minded to accept. Instead, Haydn rallies a group of adventurers willing to go after the kidnappers. Prim sends a report to the Civil Service ​+Upon arrival in Weftwell, the situation is chaotic.

 They race up the northern road and into a downpour of rain. The tracks of the armed troupe are obvious, although when the party decides to investigate a plunge of smoke and a track leading off into the trees they find themselves plunging through the muddy undergrowth. A group of sodden mercenaries greets them with denial of involvement in the raid and requests for dry firewood. Hugh and Xavier harvest flux firewood and Emily summons a flux tiger for which Hugh suggests the name Marigold. The party are largely convinced to leave the mercenaries alone since they have no kidnapped townspeople. Even after Emily snoops and finds cloth which Prim confirms was made in Weftwell, they press on. The mercenaries are relieved to see the last of Marigold, who is delighted to receive a flux toy rat from Hugh. Otto uses scribing magic on his shield to protect them from the worst of the weather. ​ They race up the northern road and into a downpour of rain.

 +The party briefly debate the destination of the babies - Xavier quite wants one - before deciding to give them back to the Tender orphanage, after reassuring themselves that the children are well-treated and the anomaly was just mad.  
 + 
 +They swing by the goose farm on the way, where Prim gives the mourning wife a cloak she made out of feathers of the geese they clobbered to death. This, strangely, does not cheer the wife up and they are ordered to leave. 
 + 
 +Back in Acryn, they leave the anomaly in the safe and capable hands of the Wayfinders'​ Guild. Prim promptly reports to the Civil Service, who agree to point her in the right direction of a mastercrafted dagger. She also shows the jewellery and documents she took from the highwaymen'​s camp. One of the documents happens to elucidate the insurance of a wealthy intestate estate and is very valuable! 
 + 
 +Xavier had discussions with Jimmy Hoskins and with the Rampant regarding Divinity. When the Rampant hears about Otto's views, he requests Xavier set up a meeting between them. Otto cautiously and briefly ventures out of the Strossbourgian Embassy to meet this learned mage authority on divinity. He is shocked to hear the Rampant has no published papers, but he suggests the Rampant gives a guest lecture at the University. The Rampant is delighted to accept. An offer of help regarding Otto's deformity is cautiously rejected.
