Session Summary - 11/3/2019

The party leaves Lesser Edale after a harrowing brush with death, and departs for Cairo, Egypt. It is currently Feb 16, 1925, and the party has been on this adventure for about a month and a half.

The party lands in Cairo via Jurgen's plane. Alabama exchanges some currency while the rest of the party is in line to get their passports stamped. Alabama bribes a guy to cut in line.

The party meets Ibi Moussa, a western dressed Egyptian who orders children to take our things to his hotel (Hotel du Sud).

Madame Patenaude greets us at the hotel. Her glasses are missing lenses, clearly worn for fashion only.

We noticed a prolific writer in the Cairo Bulletin, Nigel Wasif, who may know something or two about the Carlyle expedition. Perhaps he wrote about it?

The party starts looking for clues to locate the street of jackals.

Browsing the archives reveals a photo of the expedition members and other information. One photo of Hypatia shows a calendar in the background indicating it was taken in May, yet the article says July. According to the paper, Carlyle got sick when they departed from Mombasa, Kenya. We also found an article that Najjar's place was burned down 6 years prior (mentioned that a mysterious spirit may have been responsible).

The party learned of Jan Willem van Heuvellen, dutch archeologist, fired from the Clive Expedition. Currently in Cairo. May be of some assistance.

Nigel Wasif reveals himself to be an agent of the crown and offers his help. He tells us to visit the museum and speak to Ali Kafur.

In the night a couple shadowy figures break into our rooms and steal some money and Miles' knife. We find hidden compartments leading deeper into some tunnel system. Miles and Jurgen follow the figures into the tunnels and discover that the figures were children. They watch as the children are killed by hooded men with swords in the alley by the hotel. The party wins the fight, but just barely.
