A firefly breaks loose of Arinas's care, setting fires in the forests of Sapience much to the dismay of the forestals. Arinas explains the jar holding it had accidentally broke, and the adventurers set out to Holly of New Thera to craft a new jar, eventually catching the firefly, and ending the rampant fires. | A firefly breaks loose of Arinas's care, setting fires in the forests of Sapience much to the dismay of the forestals.

A crack in the Crystalline Circle's master crystal grows worse, the elemental minions which once protected it having left during Artemis' birth. The Magi House of Shallam grew more worried, while their tutor, Ariela went out into the realms in search of the minions. She was slain by a member of the Blood Congregation, who stole the Star Crystal she had been holding onto, unhallowing it for use in growing into a Master Crystal of their own. Ariela still wandered, and eventually fell sick in a coma, taken by the Circle back to Shallam to rest. Out of options, the members of the house began to have visions, which led them to Erinyes who began a ritual to pull their beleaguered tutor from her entrapment in the dreamrealm, chasing what was thought to be an impossible dream. Eventually, they succeeded, and as Ariela returned to the waking world, she clutched a Star Crystal in her hands, which was fed into the Master Crystal, restoring it to it's former state. | |||

A traveling merchant selling false wares visits multiple locations around Sapience, while a band of disheveled nobles begins to hunt him down, asking about the phony wares much in time with merchants who'd been swindled complaining about the things they'd bought. Before he could be caught, he vanished again into the unknown. | |||
A peddler was found slain outside of Caer Witrin. Though none knew his name, they offered him a funeral service all the same in his honour, and buried him within the cemetery there. His splintered wagon still stands in front of the village, and without his wares, Frida and Anais were unable to accept commissions any longer. | |||

The miscreant merchant reappears outside of Shallam, and while those present call for him to reform his errant ways, those within the city find the same bedraggled nobles that had been chasing him before, though seemingly not caring of his presence this time. While they drew crowds and delighted in speaking to them, a heist was taking place within the city, liberating the poor jeweler of much of his wares. By the time the citizens realized what was happening, the nobles and merchant took their leave of the city, having been a distraction. | |||
A wedding was interrupted by knocking at the Basilica door in Shallam, where a wounded wanderer was found, a former associate of the bandits who had made off with Shallam's jewels. He had formerly betrayed his band of thieves, and helped with the heist in Shallam as a means to make up for that act. When the heist was finished, they cast him aside with scorn. The people of Shallam sought forgiveness, and while they did not entirely trust him, he was the only lead they had to finding the jewels. Leading them to the hideout, the Shallamites began quarreling with one another outside on which way to proceed while another group with their own motives snuck into the hideout, and began to lift the jewels from the bandits. They were discovered, but unfortunately for the bandits, just as Shallam came in to attack. In the fray, the new thieves made off with the jewels, leaving Shallam empty handed once more. | |||
