Arben Says, "Sayanora To This Cockfest!"

Arben checks his notes before the morning meeting with the Agathersi, and that's when he realizes that Kosmina isn't Fotfrumous's wife. Oops. Still, that could have been worse. They set up the meeting, and Cyril is kind enough to continue translating.

They tell the Agathersi that they scared off Dr. Stupiferous and ask about how you're apparently not supposed to say Bloodstone while you're in the Taramul Kalalalt. They claim they didn't know that; sure, ok. Fine. They also tell them that Cardinal Valentine is being held in Baron Ovadu's castle, and Ovadu isn't their right now, so now is the time. Fotfrumous explains that he and his men have taken a vow to never enter Ovadu's castle. At this point, Arben has had enough. This is retarded.

"Hey, no hard feelings, but fuck you. We're leaving. If you guys ever want to take your dicks out of your hands and actually do something to solve your problems as opposed to just putting out fires, you can find us in Chrysopolis," Arben says. Cyril tones down the translation and everyone leaves as friends.

What are we going to do now. That's what the rest of the party is wondering. Arben tells them he's going to go get Barnacle Bashim and rescue the rest of Danger Gang. Then he's gonna take Bashim's rich stuff, and he's gonna use it to take down Phillip IV. Then he's really gonna take care of business. If they want in, great. But he's sick of spinning his wheels. Everyone seems to be up for it, as they don't have much else going on.

After paying Mihy for his fantastic guidework, they head back down the mountain to meet up with Solevei. Solevei says he saw the Agathersi take on a Shadow Dragon a few days ago, and it was pretty boss. Arben explains that someone probably told them about it back when it was still a hatchling, and they were probably all like, "We can't take care of that right now. Let me know when it's a mature adult and then we'll do something".

They set sail.
