The chapter contains many small scenes and resolutions of previous plot points. One of those is [[Erin Solstice|Erin]] meeting some of the other adventurers at [[The Adventurer’s Haven]]. Beyond those we'd already seen in detail, the north also has [[Caleis Berkesson]], an adventurer whose class revolves around helping the nobility of [[Izril]] thus he is traveling south towards Izril's new lands to help them there. She also met [[The Champions of the Coast]], a married named-rank duo. While at the haven, she chatted with [[Larracel Delais|Larra]] about their progress towards Izril's new lands and ended up making a deal with [[Barnethei]] to send [[Ishkr]] over in a temporary worker swap for some of The Haven's staff. | The chapter contains many small scenes and resolutions of previous plot points.

While Erin is at the Adventurer's Haven, [[Mrsha]] is tricked into attending school much to her chagrin. She along with Visma, Ekirra, and other children from areas connected by Erin's door are a trial-run for a full-time classroom setting led by [[Shassa Weaverweb|Shassa]]. Mrsha is initially devastated since any previous attempts at tutoring her by Erin and [[Lyonette du Marquin|Lyonette]] were extremely boring, but she is won over when Shassa taught them using fun activities like foraging and ranged combat. | While Erin is at the Adventurer's Haven, [[Mrsha]] is tricked into attending school much to her chagrin.

[[Colthei]] also came over to [[The Wandering Inn]] to discuss the state of [[Snatcher|Facestealer]]'s and [[Stalker]]'s hides. Both hides had been through rigorous cleaning done by Larra at Colthei's expense. He'd also paid out the others he'd brought in for the job using gold or the death magic swords they found. The hides were more of an issue though. They were graded at minimum at a top-tier artifact level if not relic grade and had enough material for multiple sets of armor, but hide that strong was almost impossible to cut by normal means. They'd need to find and transport the hides to a high-level tailor and Colth couldn't find someone at the right level. He brought the news to the [[Horns of Hammerad|Horns]] and [[Larr]] of [[Vuliel Drae]] provided a solution. His uncle made Kraken Armor and therefore should have the skills to handle the tough material. The Horns volunteered to bring it there since it would be closer to the new lands. As they came to this conclusion, the staff from The Adventurer's Haven arrived which included 8 people all over level 20 with three being over level 30. The staff and Lyonette were slightly combative from the start but Erin felt no pressure and was more so curious about them and their equipment. | [[Colthei]] also came over to [[The Wandering Inn|the wandering inn]] to discuss the state of [[Snatcher|Facestealer]]'s and [[Stalker]]'s hides.

At the Adventurer's Haven, Ishkr had started to work, but first we saw more of Barnethei. He and Larra had come to an agreement that Barnethei would build a new inn in the new lands under the umbrella of Larra. This would be done to gain more levels and more profits for both of them. Larra wanted these to let herself and her friends live in peace for their last years. Barnethei wanted this so he could get away from these close friends of Larra's and get his own group. Larra's friends were somewhat present. Some had already left, but [[Mihaela Godfrey|Mihaela]] and [[Valeterisa Imarris|Valeterisa]] were still at the inn. Valeterisa was there to peruse the library and work on a project while Mihaela busied herself in training potential couriers like [[Fals Lenestre|Fals]] as well as five other city runners. Both of these were distractions for Barnethei as he helped set up money making opportunities for the inn and calm down a brewing fight between a northern [Lord] and [[Relc Grasstongue|Relc]] and [[Menolit]] who had been invited to the inn. | At the Adventurer's Haven, Ishkr had started to work, but first we saw more of Barnethei.

The haven's staff at Erin's inn were trying to understand Erin and her inn, but didn't see anything nearly as impressive as the Adventurer's Haven. Erin knew this, and against all odds, Ishkr showed back up, fleeing from the attention he had been getting at the Haven. Since Ishkr had come back, this ended the employee exchange and Erin offered the staff to come into the [[Garden of Sanctuary]]. She also asked [[Ylawes Byres|Ylawes]] and his [[Silver Swords|team]] as well as [[Stargazer’s Promise]] if they could come with. She showed each of them she could find one for a statue: Ylawes saw [[Yderigrisel]], [[Falene Skystrall|Falene]] saw [[Sprigaena]], [[Lehra Ruinstrider|Lehra]] saw Chieftain [[Seru’nial]], [[Emper]] saw [[Merindue]] and other legends of [[Chandrar]], and | The haven's staff at Erin's inn were trying to understand Erin and her inn, but didn't see anything nearly as impressive as the Adventurer's Haven.

There was overlap between who saw what and the staff also saw some statues, but Erin knew some of her adventurers were leaving soon, so she wanted to show them these statues in the hopes that they might level from it and that they might be able to find stories to bring back to her about these figures. | ||
While Erin was showing statues/terrorizing her friends, Barnethei found Ishkr back at the inn and finally had the chance to make his full pitch to join him. Barnethei offered a lot to Ishkr but Ishkr was very evasive. He was offered gold, levels, fame, a place for his [[Liska Silverfang|sister]], and much more until Ishkr finally said outright that he preferred the culture of the inn here as opposed to the grueling amounts of work that seemed common at the Haven. He said that he was made by Erin rather than Erin wasting his talents. Erin came back and the two revealed that Ishkr was a [Head Server of Tales and Fables] who likely wouldn't be able to stay very anonymous much longer after he revealed his amazing skills that managed to outdo Barnethei's. | While Erin was showing statues/terrorizing her friends, Barnethei found Ishkr back at the inn and finally had the chance to make his full pitch to join him.
