The [[Fifth Farthing Session]] began at sea as the party headed to the port of [[Aidyn]], to collect a bounty for the captured pirate [[Smagul Burkit]] and to find new quarry. They reported immediately to the Admiralty office where they met with the duty officer, an [[Half-Ælf]] named [[Alua Kunduz]]. Lieutenant Kunduz issued the reward in the form of a banknote and directed the party to look at "the board" where they would find other bounties.

Two interested the party, and [[Madil Zhaydra]] asked for and received letters of marque to pursue the pirate captain [[Aykerim Abruy]], sailing the brigantine, [[Marjan]]. He had apparently been up to no good in these waters. They also received a letter for a pirate captain [[Yerbol Kaskyrbai]] who had apparently stolen 3 sloops from drydock. These were suspected to be in local waters near [[Aidyn]].

==Cargo Hauling==
[[Imanbek Akerke]] greeted the party at the [[Kuulik Trade Company]] office. He paid for the delivery of the goods from [[Shokan]], 600 pieces of gold, and expressed a small amount of astonishment. He asked if they were going back in that direction as he had 200 tons of cargo that needed to get to the capitol of [[Jagalik]], though saying that taking it as far as [[Shokan]] would be fine. The party agreed to take the cargo all the way to [[Jagalik]]. "Don't sink," said Imanbek as the deal was concluded.

==Return to Shokan==
The party returned to [[Shokan]], delivered the cartographer's assistant to his office and negotiated exclusive rights to the maps for a time. The cartographer said the charts would be ready in about a week. The party asked for what charts were available to get them to Jagalik. The cartographer had enough to get them to [[Bayzhan]] which he provided them free of charge.

==To Bayzhan and Beyond==
Wasting no time, the party headed to [[Bayzhan]] where it made up its lack of charts, by purchasing charts all the way to [[Jagalik]]. Taking its time, the party spent a night in [[Bayzhan]] and then another in the southern port of [[Nurlybek]]. It was there that they learned the fate of the [[Baalasi]].

==The Baalasi==
The night of rest in [[Nurlybek]] let the party in on a story about Captain [[Raushan Ayzara]] and her schooner, the [[Baalasi]], which apparently days earlier had run into a collection of green sea creatures. The creatures with four arms and a miserable disposition had nearly sunk her ship, despite the efforts of a seasoned party of adventurers opposing them. The party witnessed the ship with many gaping holes torn from her sides.

==The End of Captain Aykerim Abruy==
After rounding the southern Araldar cape, the party came across a brigantine flying no flags, and listing to port. The party examined and noted that the crew was all ashore. Recognizing this as their quarry, the party opted to ''walk on water'' to assault the pirate crew. By the time that the captain was subdued, the rest of the party dropped their weapons and surrendered.

Another bounty secure, or was it???

==Party Notes==
Hey gang! If I left anything out, please make a note of it here and I'll add it in.

 ==An Unusual Temple==
-The investigation led to the opening of a stone building, which turned out to be a large open temple.  To the left and right at the entrance were pits, one side with live (?) undead in it and the other with a green four armed sea creature.  The latter looked incredibly menacing if not somewhat dehydrated.

-On further inspection the temple featured about a dozen statues of [[Aydahar]] standing in various states of undress.  At the center of the temple was a magical circle with a sheen of light glowing around it.  In the center of the circle was a glowing magic box.  At the head of the circle was a large table with knives on it and all manner of offal.  Around the table were drains that sluiced the blood into smaller circles within the magic circle.  Behind the altar, stood another set of statues, the center one being a Naga and the others looking like abominations of some sort.

-Lastly, the party discovered a locked room adjacent to the statues.  After much failure with the door it was eventually kicked in to reveal a small room containing the most beautiful woman the party had ever seen... who identified herself as [[14th Rose of Aspan]] and spiritual leader of the city of [[Karakat]].  She explained that she had been on her way to the capital and her ship was overtaken by a Naga wizard, who was keeping her captive.

 The party offered to take her along and fight their way out, but she refused to leave with them, fearing they would return any second.

 As the magic seemed to drain from the magic circle, the party took positions in various parts of the chamber to avoid immediate detection.  [[Rael Starflower]] chose the most unfortunate location as when the magic dissipated, the statues behind him came to life; one a Naga wizard and the others rotting flesh golems.
-The fight was on and the mighty flesh golems nearly pounded Rael into the ground.  Jarseth the wizard, though a great stroke of luck managed to charm the Naga wizard, but the flesh golems were merciless.  Madil and Barcal closed in on them doing incredible damage, while Cemzick swirled in and out of the fray, stinging with his shortsword.  Barcal took down the first, and eventually the other two fell before the party was smashed to bits.

 As the flesh golems splattered to the ground, their blood sluiced back to the magic circle, resuming the magical sheen and returning the Naga to stone form.  The party soon broke this stone form into tiny shards.
 ==The Gratitude of Powerful Women==
-When the Rose of Aspan came from the room, she explained that the box was in her charge and she had brought it with her as part of a diplomatic mission to the capitol of [[Araldar]].  She was grateful to the party for rescuing her, but wondered how she would get to [[Jagalik]].  [[Madil Zhadyra]] assured her that it was her very lucky day, as the crew was destined for [[Jagalik]] already and would be happy to bring her aboard their ship.  Having no money on her person, the [[14th Rose of Aspan]] compensated Madil by cleansing him of all of his sins over the next two days.
