The crew went about their business over the six months we spent in Port Talp.  We spent money, spread the word of our legend through bardic tales, hired a new navigator and some additional crew including more Fey refugees (not the ex-cons), and prepared ourselves to take on the eel folk.

Before we set sail, we were visited by the Grand Marshall of Iott and her entourage.  She came on board and magically scanned our defenses.  She was utterly ravishing and thoroughly compelling.  The crew were on their best behavior.  Before she departed, she asked where we were going and invited several of the officers to meet with her after we returned.  She was particularly interested in Claude and his abilities.

We decided to set sail for Icefia after doing some research and concluding that it was the closest major port to the eel folk.  Once we landed in Icefia, some of the crew went exploring, others stayed back, and Claude, Chase, and Midyro went to the shrine of Tfop.  On our way back to the ship, we were accosted by an Ice Gnome claiming that one of us was an "imposter" and that he was going to snuff us out.  We tried talking, but Claude grew tired of discussion (after only one round thanks to his short attention span) and pulled a hand crossbow on him.  The Gnome pulled a sword and threatened us, but in a haphazard way.  He spoke odd and eventually declared himself to be the great "Rednamyerg Edualc."

We tried casting spells and shooting him with the crossbow, but his strength of will was too strong.  Fortunately, his tiny body and lack of actual skill proved easy to overcome and Claude simply used one of his potions to vanish us out and closer to the ship.  The Gnome approached our ship and made idle threats, so we sent the Rope Gollum down to pin and hog tie him.  We stopped with the crew staring at each other and shrugging our shoulders.

We quickly realized that this creature was one of many possible unfortunate side effects of Claude's wish to have "more of himself."  We stopped there.
