Look Who's Coming to Dinner, part 3

The Crimson Fleet had spent some time observing Farshore and its routines. When the party began fortifying the village, the assault plans were modified. With the party's last minute preparations, magical scrying devices were employed to ensure every element of surprise was preserved.

The first wave mainly consisting of the crews of The Hag, Sea Witch's Curse, and The Kraken made an early landing sending several shore party ahead of the ships into the harbor. A spellcaster was flinging fireballs into town, while Nesta's archery made quick work of the crews on the decks of two of the ships. The third was engaged by the Vicious Spanking in ship to ship combat. With the slowing of the first wave, the party was able to quickly counter the shore parties.

The second wave came forth after the initial wave met with strong resistance. The crews of the Stygian Shark and the Brine Harlot made their way to shore while three flesh golems crawled out of the water onto one if the piers . The Stygian Shark moved in closer for better artillery support and several Yuan-ti emerge on its deck. The party scrambled to meet the new threat, with a blur of Rudy's fury, Vin and Ortho flying, Nesta's volleys, and Hjalmgerdr-Gwendyln-Daria-Z filling the gaps.

The defenders of Farshore had held the main assault a line by the docks. The third wave teleported deeper into town, Vanthus Vanderboren and a trio of Vrocks. Vanthus begain howling into town, challenging Lavinia to come forth and negotiate with him. The Vrocks begain dacing while Vanthus tried to lure Lavina, but the Party responded quickly and broke up the gathering even though they managed to summon yet another Vrock. With all of the party now focused on the new threat, Vanthus received some long overdue payback. Rudolpho did most of the softening but Nesta fell Vanthus, and responded to Rudolpho's disgusted look with "Do I have to do everything around here?"

Vanthus falls, and maybe Farshore will get a reprieve from attention of the Crimson Fleet. The party certainly is overdue for some rest and relaxation.
