Chapter 4 - Meet the Gralhunds

After having followed one of the Zhents from the alley to a Noble's villa, we started with Beef and Farraine vaulting the wall of Gralhund Villa after the guards are drawn away by sounds of fighting inside. Beef attempts to get a vantage point by climbing a tree but slips and falls unceremoniously to the ground.

Byron and Finn manage to escape the alley via the rooftops and sewers by following the Magical Paper bird. Once there, they find Beef tying a man to a tree and Farraine is doing what he does best.

Byron is thwarted by the Villa gates and requires some help. The villa is the scene of some ferocious fighting between the Zhentarim and the household guards who initially suffered heavy losses against the better trained Zhentarim. Eventually through force of numbers and a dual pronged assault with the characters, the Zhents are defeated and one is tied to a tree.

You discover that the Zhent from the alley is none other than Urstul Floxin who after repeatedly being threatened by Farraine, steps into a teleportation circle and flees.

The Gralhund Guards escort you from from their home and you once again enter the sewers where Finn, unable to stand the stench, vomits all down himself. Eventually, you make it back to TSM and stow the prisoner in the cellar where Chef Ozen promises to watch him.

*You learned:

*That the Gnome who was killed outside TSM was carrying something important which was then taken by Urstul who fled the scene.

*The Gralhunds were allowing the Zhentarim to use their villa as a base of operations in Waterdeep but the relationship has soured.
