2x18: A Friend of mine in Vasselheim

The saints set out through Vasselheim to track down the other locations where a mysterious person had stashed tablets designed to bring about a dark ritual across the city. A few of them headed first to the bathhouse after doing a bit of shopping. While in the bathhouse, they discovered that they had unintentionally entered one of these locations and had to fight off Vampiric mist in the buff. After recovering the second tablet from underneath the baths, they went to watch Red barely win a fight with a huge drunken opponent in the crucible. She was helped slightly by some secretive magic that passed right under the noses of the guards. Next, they went to investigate a break-in, thinking it to be the location of a third incursion. They searched it for a bit before finding a banshee hidden inside a cabinet with the third tablet. After that, they found the fourth location by looking at a map and plotting the points together. They headed for the Playwrights Guild, where they discovered a covert thieves guild posing as actors. They took care of their undead problem, and were given information on a possible heist opportunity to steal money from crooked moneylenders for the guild. First, however, the Saints discovered that the origin of this magical portal that was about to be created was in the Elder Outfitters. They rushed to the center of town to confront the tailor, and fought him and his undead allies before he was able to activate the summoning ritual to bring one of his masters from the shadowfell. They gave the tailor to the guards, and rested to continue their search for the vestige of divergence the next day.
