The prisoner was only able to tell us that he worshiped The King that Crawls, and that we would be maimed, brutalized, burnt, cut, tortured, imprisoned, and given substandard meals. Needless to say, he was not much help.
However, the group and the local constabulary came up with a plan so cunning you could brush you teeth with it. The prisoner was allowed to escape during a fake fight between the guards and unknown assailants, but was shadowed most successfully by Hans and Aisha.
The rest of the team followed and found a gathering of cultists in High Castle’s biggest park. A depression in the ground served as the cultists’ meeting ground, and while the party watched, a raven landed and spoke to the assembled group.
“Torog speaks: more work jailers. Houses Tarakan and Aligo offend, silence them. Vren dies. No more rowboats. Chaos will midwife change. Await the coming order.”
The magically inclined members of the group realized the raven was acting under the effects of a modified animal messenger ritual. But who cast the ritual?
Leaving such answers for later, the group attacked the assembled cults with surprise. The fight was long, brutal, and bloody, but eventually the team was successful and brought many of the cults down to face justice.
Except for one mind-controlling slimy git. He got away.
