| - | As the party gathered under the deck to deliberate their path to Rudiana, a chill not born of the river air settled over them. They noticed a figure standing but a few paces away. A man who seemed to flicker in the peripheral of their minds. He was familiar, seen a dozen times throughout the voyage, yet the memory of him slipped through their thoughts like water through a sieve. He swiftly introduced himself as [[npc:Olin Keeves|]], a man of cheerful countenance and innocuous aura, but yet he exuded a hidden potency that the party was aware to not contest. He referred himself as a harvester of secrets, aided by an eerie capacity to go unnoticed. Without being asked, he unveiled the fruits of his background check on the fellowship carried out for the captain, revealing knowledge that even they had not yet grasped.

However, at this departure her mood shifted from the one they got accustomed to in the past few days. With a cryptic message she wished them to be careful in their journey ahead, as the very fate of the world could depend on it.
