Vanquished Necromancer

One of the acolytes came and got me this afternoon with great news! The Sons of Waterdeep, as people are calling them now, were the group that found the necromancer. I shouldn't be surprised really, it seems as though Lathander is truly smiling upon them. It was late afternoon by the time everyone got back to the temple and cleaned up. Oh my they were filthy! The smell was unbearable. We had to throw buckets of water on everyone and even had to resort to cleaning and purifying spells to get the job done properly. I have to be honest and say that I am especially proud of Vannok and Reginvall. From what I have heard the two of them with Lathander's blessing turned the tide of the battle and turned the foul undead that were guarding the necromancer and made it possible to destroy her. Credit too should go to the followers of Helm for mopping up the undead that were left. I find it disconcerting that a necromancer could set up an altar and temple to the Mistress of Poisons so easily beneath our streets. The sewers are far too vast to patrol them all but I will speak with both the Watch and the Guard about stepping up our vigilance to try and minimize the chances of this happening again. I am pleased that it was the followers of Lathander who got the reward though. It was generous of Vannok and Reginvall to donate some back to the Temple. I think I will pass on to Piergerion what they have accomplished. I hope they understand that with noteriety and growing popularity comes awareness from people that may wish them harm.....

Word on the street

"I tell you they walked right up to the door and challenged the lot of them!"

 "I heard that too.. Old Gram said they walked right in there and fought 20 men shooting off spells and such.."

 "20 men? Bah! I heard it was more like 50..."

"They took down  Valthas without blinking an eye... If I found out they were looking for me I would leave Waterdeep on the first ship I could and not look back..."

"Who was it though?? Who could do such a thing...?"

"Ranf you're an idiot... What do you mean who was it? It was those fellas that all came from the orpanage.."

"People are calling them the Sons of Waterdeep..."

Conversation on the docks 27th Mirtul

Damned fool I am. I can't believe that right under my nose those thugs managed to get my own guards to help them out! People died for Tyr's sakes... I have been entrusted to keep the peace in the Trade Ward and look what happened. Never again... I tried to give my resignation to Captain Hawkwinter but he wouldn't take it. If it wasn't for that group who knows how long this would have gone on for...

I am so ashamed...
