Arthur is seen traveling with Eragor and Varia in through Kuo Tua, then into the mines coming back exhausted, after some rest he goes to speak with the Minotaur blacksmith about Gond and is seen offering up some of his own hand made pickaxes to Gond. After the offering he begins searching for others of Gond to learn more about him.

The Shiney Coppers has been busy of late.
-
As Mystic has taken up her frequent visits underground again, she too notices the the busy docks, so instead of heading straight to the Coppers she remains in the area and settles by the bar where she knows conversations and gossip is easily over heard, especially if gold is offered.

A black and gold clad young woman, under thirty that is, asks a few questions here and there about those developments, but not just from one person, canvassing the area to get a better view of the goings on.

_1)Those passing through the Raven Rift to Oscura may note the sounds of a raven cawing, and occasionally glimpse a large black winged shape flitting amongst the rocky stalacites…a wizard's lost pet, perhaps?
- It seems that there more unfamiliar faces these days down at the crumbling docks...glum merchants alighting here, while seasoned mercenaries board ships headed elsewhere. Either way, the word "Damara", and "developments" seem to be on the lips of these transient visitors, and there are even whispers of contracts for those of the right disposition..._

_Anyone who frequents the library may have noticed Cray spending much time there.
He has many books spread out in front of him. Squinted eyes shift left to right constantly, as they follow his fingertips down the pages. He occasionally loses his place when the candle flickers. Followed by the scrunch of his nose and momentary loss of focus.
Anyone attempting to talk to him will be ignored initially. As he is very pre-occupied, and if pressed about his vigor. He will just smile, and say something like he is simply soaking up knowledge._

_After a several month long absence Cray is seen once again bustling and hanging about Oscura.
Immediately upon his return. Cray scurries back and forth, from Oscura to Peltarch by boat. He does this trip about four times in a couple days. Carrying a small crate up to the surface and coming back empty handed each time._

After strutting around the docks and whistling at passing women an oddly spoiled half-orc slave is said to have 'tripped and fallen' into a tent full of caltrops. The bleeding disfigured horc proceeded to apologize to everyone in the docks before retreating to his master's ship to await its departure.

A wiry framed Gold Dwarf strapped in dark leather armor has been wandering the many streets and establishments of Oscura lately, nodding to those he passes and giving a slight smile through his long, black and extremely well groomed beard. Walking confidently with his forearms resting on two finely crafted light hammers tucked comfortably into his belt, he doesn't seem to be looking for anything in particular and is quick to stop and make small talk with strangers. Most folks eventually learn his name is Dogun Deepvein and he is looking to put his hammers in service of anyone who needs his skills and can pay his price.
-
There is a robed old man wandering around the docks last days saying he sells items of small value.He limps and leans on a staff,and when speaks to people he coughs weakly.Most people there laugh at his sight and shake their head amusedly.One of many said ''bah,he ain't gonna live fer long.Look at him,he can barely raise a hand to show the shit he sells!''
The old man usually laugh with a cough and keeps on what he is doing saying to most ''hey son,one must do what he can to earn a living…[cough cough]''
