We are going overland through Slovenia. We left the Venice area in late April, 1516.

There seems to be a bunch of bad luck (broken wheels, etc.) I look for little people. AmbrosioTornelli checks if we have been cursed by someone (the Doge?). I notice a hazy magical miasma.

We discuss if we should dispel the curse. We decide to do it. We also notice we seem to have a small group of people following (at least 3.)

VincenteTornelli, FilippoTarantino and GiucamoTarantino stay in ambush as we move on.

They see one hiding behind a tree. FilippoTarantino throws the spear at them, and runs forward.

1. Round
   1. FilippoTarantino levels the spear at him and orders him to surrender
   2. Spy pulls is sword and slashes at FilippoTarantino, but he parries.
   3. GiucamoTarantino tries to disarm him.
   4. VincenteTornelli keeps a look out.
2. Round
   1. …

They capture them (3 prisoners). They are speaking German or Swiss.

They rejoin the rest of us.

We interrogate them. Who do you work for? ProsperoTepes.

They were sent to protect us!

We heal them. They are extraordinarily understanding.
