Dunrat and Maridosen captured
IMC Dunrat and Maridosen have been captured and turned over to Elmo.
The wagon is scheduled to arrive the next day. The Heroes leave town the next day after finding the note in the mill. Jaroo is still under cover and Chenashi is hiding out with Jaroo.
I figure that Chenashi and the wagon crew can go to the moathouse and seal the obelisk room, remove any artifacts the players missed. This should take a day.
Jaroo can convince Elmo to let him 'interrogate' Dunrat. Jaroo can slip Dunrat a holy symbol and a key to his shackles. Dunrat can then escape and kill a badger while Elmo is out.
Dunrat, Chanashi, Maridosen and the wagon crew can take what few artifacts they have (just the small four sided statue) and try to catch up with the party.
What do you think?

Re: Dunrat and Maridosen captured
Presuming 'Jaroo' doesn't want to blow his cover making it look like an inside job isn't going to help.
Also if Dunrat is freed he will do everything and anything in his power to get all the artifacts even if the chances of success are very low.

Re: Dunrat and Maridosen captured
IMC it was Chat that was captured. Elmo voluntarily had Jaroo interrogate him, thinking he was just a common treasure grubbing mook. Jaroo freed him and even went to town undercover to get him some replacement equipment, but he made it look like Chat attacked him and killed the guard outside. If you don't want Jaroo looked at with suspicion immediately, you're going to have to devise something half-believable like this.

Re: Dunrat and Maridosen captured
IMC the first capture was Gren (from the Moathouse near the secret door...may have name wrong). I played her as a fairly untrusted acolyte in the interrogation.
She revealed mostly accurate knowledge of who the remaining cultists in the Moathouse were, but couldn't detail much of the layout as she wasn't permitted very far beyond the secret door.
Second, Vacra was captured in a raid on the millhouse...they were lucky enough to have Vacra, Chenashi, Grune, Dunrat, and the other one there when they raided (Chat was already dead after a failed assassination on the doorstep of the moathouse).
Later that night, remembering that Maridosen seemed somewhat friendly with Chat, they lay in ambush at the millhouse in hopes she would go there, not knowing about the raid...they were right, and she was captured as well.
They charmed both girls, put them inside a zone of truth, and got some information from them....a little more about how the cult is operating, what its goals are in the immediate area, and not much beyond that. Neither Vacra nor Maridosen are terribly high on the ladder anyway.
They also attempted speak with dead on Dunrat and Festrath, but both made their saving throws, foiling that.
Between hold person and reviving mooks dropped below 0 hit points, but not quite dead, I'm guessing that captured cultists will be fairly common.
