Hook

Flesh and Filigree III

Plot Synopsis

Following their heist from Death's Knell, the party spends a night raucously partying and drinking on the ship before returning to Fo'evadi a couple days later. When they arrive, Sandro is waiting for them, both to retrieve his cargo and tell them to meet with his boss, the head of the Seabright Mercantile Company, Vincent Van Asdale. Upon meeting with the party, Van Asdale tells them that Sandro told him about the abyssling takeover of Death's Knell, and that a ship had arrived from there a couple of days ago and traded cargo. Concerned that the cargo may have been abyssling infected, he sends the party to investigate Marco Casparra, the head of an automaton manufacturing company who had received a shipment of wine from the ship. Arriving at his house in the evening, the party breaks in and finds a secret underground area, complete with some puzzles, automaton oddities, and a workshop containing evidence that he was working with abysslings to spread them further. On their way out, the party encounters Marco, who is terribly infected and mutates into a horrific beast before their eyes.
