The middle of the first night it's peaceful and calming, the two moons currently waxing, with a full moon expected in the coming days. You are passing a large lake in the marsh when you notice the stars are disappearing, slow at first but soon it's only the moons that are left in the sky.

You hear a voice echo in your mind with a terrible pain it sounds like your voice but they're not your thoughts (Roll Wis save). “Abandoning everyone again? You faced that great beast head on just days ago but now humans scare you? I can see why none of them trust you.” The pain stops as soon as the voice does

Wis save
<8 - You see dead bodies of the party, your new troops, and Sarren, until the sun rises
<14 - 10 Psychic damage, stars are still missing
>15 - Looking back into the sky all the stars have returned

In the morning at the sign of first sun High Commander Arhtek goes to wake up 'Barkley' if not disguised he'll try apprehend Maiq and bring to the main tent, if disuised “Barkley, we have some troops that caused disruption in the town last night after and are being insubordinate this morning, please come to the tent as soon as your ready so we can deal with them.

Arriving in the tent there will be three troops, 2 human and 1 lizardfolk that have their hands bound by rope. “They were caught this morning by a local farmer who says they destroyed her crop. When turned in they refused to help in repairs and apologise. For their insubordination what is your reccomended punishment for them?”

save for later as paranoia
Across the lake you spy a figure, you blink and it's gone
