Erron's cursory grabbing of the items from the captain's cabin before the collapse of the ship yielded these items:
221 Gold
1 Faintly magical scimitar
1 Scroll of Identify
As the group reached the Temple of Nidrasil, they entered through the ornate doors searching for the priestess.
Several of the clerics of the temple turned to regard them as they walked in, sensing the divine presence carried within the Golden Scales, they made sacred hand motions in passing reverence.
Priestess Sandrimus rushed out from a side corridor and nearly fell to her knees as she saw them.
"Oh praise Nidrasil! You have the scales! Thank you so much adventurers! Please, hand it to me and I will return it to its rightful place in the temple. Afterwards I promise to grant you your reward."

"Of course." Erron and the party followed the priestess gazing at the corridors and rooms as they passed, Ronus spoke of the temples he'd seen in comparison to these, and "none of them matching his own city's temple" They all approached the altar for the scales soon. "Also, if I could get some healing I would be eternally grateful." Erron added.
(Scimitar is given to Prometheus, Scroll given to Selce, Gold into the party fund)

Prometheus gladly took the scimitar, now wielding two.
"I think we can all go for a nice sleep, and heal," Prometheus said.

As the priestess carefully placed the sacred object back into its rightful place, she made a religious motion across her chest before turning to the group of adventurers.
"Of course. Your rewards. I shall fully cleanse your wounds. Nidrasil... tend to their ailments and purify them, these who have returned your relic to your faithful!"
A bright light descended from the windows along the wall. It fills you with a sense of accomplishment and gratitude as well as warmth and comfort. Before your eyes, your wounds begin to magically heal.
"There, the Merchant Lord has shown his grace and gratitude upon you. Now, we, his servants will grant you a small token of gratitude," she disappeared for a moment into a side room before returning, holding a pair of gloves," These are The Gilded Armguards. They are enchanted with Nidrasil's passion for trade and merchant life. They are yours now, use them with our blessing."
Erron has received:
The Gilded Armguards: Grant a magical bonus to accuracy with hand-to-hand attacks, increasing all damage slightly. They also increase Charisma, which will make merchants and salesman like the party more, meaning discounts at stores etc.

Erron walks to the altar and imitates the religious motion, then turns to bow and thank the priestess for her generosity.
Slipping on the gloves he feels magic flowing through his hands to his feel and suddenly he feels slightly more charming, he preforms a few kata to get used to the added weight on his hands
Erron finished his practice in the center of the wide hall and turned to address the priestess "These are exquisite, thank you very much Miss Sandrimus, we must now decide on our next course of action, you wouldn't by any chance have heard about strange happenings on the way to Haven? A merchant has offered to hire us as escorts, fearing of being robbed of his goods."

Selce sent a cursory glance of the identify scroll before putting it away. She had no need for it, her spellbook had the spell in it already. Selce listened to the priestess and the aura of peacefullness that fell over the group, caused her to smile at the feeling. "We might as well hire on with that caravan anyway, more gold is never a bad thing." Selce mentioned to Prometheus. She swept out a hand towards the scimitar and brought the spell to her mind. She cast Identify upon it and then drew out the scroll to recite the words again at Ronus's new mace.

Identify has been cast on the mace and scimitar:
Scimitar: Cinder Claw- This scimitar has been lightly enchanted with the ability to carry and generate a moderate amount of heat. Each attack generates additional fire damage as well as create a wall of ash to block one attack per day.
Mace: Mace of Boldness- The blunt weapon is enchanted with weak magic that increases the base damage and strength of the wielder.
"No, nothing, Erron. There are a few bandits on the roads but they rarely do anything more than raid occasional caravans and isolated villages, not much can be done other than hire adventurers or mercenaries such as yourselves. I wish you well on your journey."

"Very well, may fortune smile upon you." Erron smiles and claps Prometheus and Selce on the shoulders for a job well done. "I'm going to get some stuff for the journey" Erron takes a portion of the gold from the party's fund and pockets it before heading off to the general store, saying as he left with a wink. "We have some free time on our hands, spend it well!"
Erron decides to go to the general store to stock up on food for the party, a coiling of rope, oil, tinderboxes and some first aid supplies, and takes it to the caravan explaining that since they were not able to leave until the town guard opened the gates, they were going to take the time to run some personal errands and relax, he assured the merchant that they would be in good shape to guard the van, prohibiting an act of a demi-god or mad sorcerer, this being done Erron goes off to the docks to explore until the all clear was sounded.

Selce decided to just randomly wander through the city. She had no interest in returning to the inn. So just wondered the city, taking turns on impulse. She soon looked around to notice that she could smell the salty air from the docks as it blew through the streets and alleys.Selce ambled down that way but soon stopped as she noticed the time of the day.

The time is now 8:00 p.m.
All players have until morning to do whatever they wish during this time period. At 9:00 a.m. A messenger from Phineas Fairhand will arrive informing that the caravan will be leaving shortly. Until then, spend the time resting, talking, exploring, shopping, etc.

After wandering the docks for most of the afternoon and not finding much of interest, The Docks were still a mess from the large ship suddenly sinking in the bay and dockworkers were busy trying to scavenge the boat to make that particular dock safe to use again.
Erron decides to go around the different stores who also ship their goods to Haven, hoping to get some information on the bandits who occupy the road, and also does some light browsing for magical amulets, capes and some decent shoes, his sandals were falling apart from use and Haven was roughly a day and a half away.

Selce wandered past an alley. She soon hit a dead end and turned around. As she came to the mouth of the alley she looked down it and started to walk down it. She followed it and reached a road, which she then took to a shop that claimed it's wares were for wizards.

((For the sake of progressing the story right now, we'll just say the following. Now go to the Inn already and we'll fast forward this to morning so we can get the two new guys in here lol.))
Shopkeeper:Welcome to my store!
Erron purchases new shoes for 5 gold. (discounted from 10 gold due to wearing Golden Gloves)
Selce purchases "Robe of the Lesser Magi" (bonuses: grants slight protection from physical harm, moderate protection from magical damage and allows for an extra spell to be cast per rest period) for 60 gold.

(Daddy needs a new pair of shoes XP)
Erron finishes his business at the merchants having found no interesting information on the bandits other than "There are a few of em on the roads" which more or less summarized what he already knew. He had replaced his downtrodden sandals with a pair of durable leather shoes who craftsman was well known in town, they had been suggested to him after mentioning that he would be on his way to Haven. "No no, you cannot even fight in those...those THINGS you're wearing anymore! I'm telling you, these will keep your feet safe and your kicks powerful!" the merchant had insisted.
After the transaction Erron went back to the Inn they had spent the previous night, ate, then went to his room to sleep: not knowing what to expect other than "A bunch of bandits". Things had gotten a bit too closely knit to their capture for his comfort.
