Entering town for the first time the group decide that the best place to start is the town hall. Entering they attempt to arrange a meeting with the mayor of the town only to be told by Rishin the scribe that they are in a meeting and they can not be disturbed. They persist however and while Rikash is busy intimidating Rishin, Kasha climbs the outside of the building to listen in on the meeting within the council room. Much to their surprise it turns out the meeting within is a meeting of cult members. Unfortunately no names are used as each member is refered to by a colour.
The group quickly decide to send someone after the scribe when he heads home and Storm takes on the task. Meanwhile Adoni searched Rishin's office and finds hidden amongst his papers a small note saying "The day you'll never reach".
Storm follows Rishin who spends most of the evening preparing food before putting on some red robes and heading back towards the town hall.
At the other end of town, having followed one of the cultists to a shed, Adoni slips into the shed when he has gone. While Master Jacques and Rikash watch out for further activity. Within the building Adoni finds, locked into a cell, a small goblin who introduces himself as Finil. After a quick conversation they realise they cannot leave Finil where he is as he is to be offered a sacrifice to the dragon. Freeing him Adoni hears from the others that the brewerer is returning. Rikash knocks him down and ties him to a tree taking his ring and keys.
The group then leave him there and head to the brewery. Master Jacques gives Finil the keys and tells him to make himself at home.
Rikash leaves the group stating his duties come first and he is called away. Master Jacques tells the others to go ahead and he will meet up with them within the cult headquarters.
The three remaining members reach the door holding out the brewerer's ring. "Who am I?" the door asks. Replying the trio enter the cult hideout. They quickly find some robes to wear and infiltrate the base further.
Managing to avoid the most cult members and talking their way past the sentry left at the door the group find a set of cells. Within one of them is a small halfling suffering from fever from his wounds. The trio take him with them fighting the cultists that try to stop their exit from the caves. Most of the cultists are captured or killed though one, through invisibility, manages to escape barely getting past Master Jacques who has now returned. The group start to explore the cult lair and discover a cat statue and a strange dwarven chest and jerkin. Unfortunately Kasha sets off a fire trap that, due to his illness, the halfling is unable to avoid killing him outright.
Going further into the cult hideout they reach some natural caves and there hidden by some stone bars lies a young dragon called Mirama. Storm talks to the dragon and eventually agrees to help free it by removing the collar restricting its acid breath. Mirama escapes happily thanking the group by telling them of the Elemental Rings.
Going to the town guard the group present their findings and explain where to find the cult members. They also bribe the captain of the guard with the dwarven chest to allow Finil the deed to the Brewery.
While relaxing in the inn later they find that some notes have been slipped them piecing them together a message is made clear "Welcome to the Hall of Mirrors - Entry fee five gems". The group puzzle over it but are unable to work out what it is.
Later that night Kasha is visited by a ghostly figure that bares a passing resemblance to a halfling but is terribly scarred. Adoni is the only member who remains calm enough to talk to the figure and finds out that he is called Rendal and is part of the Romani that they meet outside of town. Kasha, who caused his death, agrees to restore him to his family when she gets the chance.
