2023-08-26 - Founder's Square - Completed
Several heroic spirits land in Frontier Town. Laura in the river, Arctozolt in a bank vault, Corey atop a water tower, Felin in a jail cell, and Nova in front of a photographer about to take a picture. Naturally this photo went straight to the Gazette for the morning's special edition.
After accumulating a fair number of stares, the group is approached by the town marshal, Prinplup Lucien, and a local doctor, Indeedee Drungfield. Lucien remains tightly reserved, but does offer to arrange rooms for the party at Traveller's Haus, a cheap hotel, on his own credit.
The group is soon joined by those of their number who had spawned in the Wanderin' Zera, and retires for the night soon after. Nobody is sure where the missing members of the Spirit Nexus group have gone.
