"With Viktor bravely bearing the pains of serious wounds, every jolt of the wagon caused pain as we travelled the poor roads towards distant Altdorf, our prisoners tied inside. Sigmar favoured us, and we met a group of road wardens whose captain, being invested of the Elector's authority, did judge their heinous crimes, executing the lady by pistol and the swamp bullies by hanging from the nearest tree. He also told us that his sister, a doktor, was at the nearby coaching inn and would surely treat Viktor; we would doubly need this inn for the road wardens had to impound the coach to return to the Stiegler family.
"We reached the inn and secured rooms for the night, also negotiating a good price for a shared coach ride to Altdorf on the morrow and, further, meeting Doktor Adina who agreed to treat Viktor for his wounds. The three of us took repast in the common room, with Alexis and Hilda engaging in a card game with a smooth-talking Brettonian. I, as a servant of Sigmar, took no part in gambling, but the perils of the evening were to go far, far beyond any loss of coin at cards! Also in the room were the innkeeper, a noblewoman of haughty mien, her maid and her female bodyguard. The Bretonnian, two coachmen, a crow (which we thought to be the innkeeper's pet) and an unctious medical student, travelling to the university in Altdorf, and reading a tome that purported, by its cover, to be about the medicinal use of leeches. In such scenes, the evil of Chaos can creep......
The bird, mimic of the human voice, read foul words from the book and grim forces were brought to our world: a stinking, sickening swirl of putrid ping daemonic essence was summoned. The student was a witch! Hilda sped into action, attacking the beast, followed quickly by Alexis. Unable to reach the daemon, I attacked the snivelling witch. All of us showed courage in the face of horror; my two brave companions, smiting it down, and smiting yet again when two smaller cerulean abominations sprung from its corpse. Meanwhile, I slew the witch and set holy fire to his foul grimoire. Sigmar, I thank thee for being with us this perilous night."
