This adventure began after SpringRite and his companions had rescued several of their companions in Jar-Kahn. After they decided not to continue their earlier mission with Lady Allegra or to pursue Antos and the other man who had imprisoned part of the group, the party decided it was time to start fresh.

With that, the party prepared to depart Jar-Kahn. Deciding that Hanmer might be too dangerous, the party canceled their plan to return via airship, and instead prepared to take a passenger ship to Vesqui, then travel overland back to Nazivonema. Since the party found that the next passenger ship would not arrive for several days, Villea, Al Sha'in and Delmar Zorchglimmer returned in the airship. CloudStorm went with them so that he might retrieve his falcon companion, intending to rejoin the group once they reached Nazivonema.

The passenger ship arrived -- the Daikigyou, a ship from Jiberia -- and Beyla became concerned, thinking it was connected to the Snake clan, a group known for its ruthlessness and treachery. After SpringRite spoke with an elf who had just disembarked, who told him he had had no trouble, the party decided to book passage, with Beyla agreeing to serve as ship's cat in exchange for her fare.

The Daikigyou set sail the next morning, and the party was invited to dine with Captain Saichi. However, several of the party members felt ill. SpringRite was in especially bad shape, and the group called upon the ship's cleric, SeaWind, to aid him. Keladryn, Beyla and Fiona met with the captain, and the meeting was postponed until the following day. The party noted that SeaWind seemed to be behaving oddly, and possibly spying on them.

The following day arrived, and the party had lunch with the captain and discussed some of their respective exploits. The Daikigyou then made port in Porton to pick up another passenger, and the party spent the evening at the Spindrift Inn in town. Beyla seemed to know the innkeeper, named Xandro, and introduced him to Gabriella and NightShade. The three then had a meeting out of sight of the rest of the party. The sisters returned, and the party stayed to hear the tale of the mad wizard's tower outside the city, and then most of them spent the night on the boat.

The Daikigyou set sail the next morning, but Hanalyn, who had still not recovered from her seasickness, remained behind to attempt to procure other transportation. During these first few days, the party had noticed SeaWind apparently spying on them, and noticed this again on this morning. Also, the passenger that came aboard in Porton seemed quite mysterious -- Beyla observed the person coming aboard concealed in a heavy cloak, carrying a mysterious package. She and NightShade determined to investigate.

Later that day, the party discussed the possibility of abandoning their ocean-going voyage in favor of attempting to earn some gold, in the hopes of getting to Nazivonema more quickly. To that end, they asked Gar about his plans, and about what he knew of the new passenger. It was determined that she was likely an elf from Shael i'Vor, and Gabriella went to have a chat with her...
