Sam helped smooth out that situation and dragged her off. There was also an incident with the woman’s hat (used for collecting coin) and Weezl misunderstanding and opting to wear it. Meanwhile Sam is playing paisho, soon to be joined by an elderly man, and Weezl is off talking to the bard and watching her play. By this point the baker (Lem) comes back, and the Ziggy goes catch up with him and the trackers.Generously giving the men back a decent share of the takings, but still coming out ahead. Ziggy opts to deal and manages to get a few cards ‘up his sleeve’, he and Weezl distract the men with conversation… and he wins the pot.
There’s a lot of drinking and (purposely) lost hands, but with one of the men passing out drunk, they decide to settle the game with a final round. Ziggy finds himself at a table with some locals playing poker. They talk to the innkeep and get some information about the goings on in town and are told that the local baker and some trackers will be back in an hour or two from their searches.
The inn is The Tipsy Tadpole run by Thannis (related to the family with the wagon earlier), they get welcomed in and offered a meal and drinks. There’s some horseplay, but the group get themselves tidied up. They ask for where they can clean themselves and get directed to the inn, or a nearby stream. The group arrive at Caldridge in the afternoon. The group all end up pretty darn dirty, but they do find a few gold coins for their efforts. Ziggy and Sam both cut down the tiny imps with ease, but Sam is caught in the exploding remains of one of the creatures and gets himself covered in mud. This results in Weezl being punched in the face, and her destroying one and jumping in the mud. Weezl inspects the puddles, and a small hand darts out of one and grabs at her staff. The group notice some mud puddles by the road. Unfortunately they don’t fit in the wagon but they continue on foot (being told it wasn’t too far off.) They get given some food for their efforts and refresh themselves. The family was also heading to Caldridge and they have family that runs the inn there. One of them was wounded and the druid healed them (naming the horse Max) and chatting to them a bit. Sam and Ziggy help get the wagon fixed while Weezl goes to talk to the horses. On the road they come across a family with a broken wagon. Plus, the place they were staying was pretty sucky. Putting two and two together they hoped to help out and hopefully get a decent reward. Ziggy and crew ( Sam and Weezl) had heard of some mysterious disappearances and that the town was led by a retired adventurer. 
The group has been travelling for a few days toward the town of Caldridge.
