Altador asked if [[Jazan]] was there to free the faeries from the curse, to which hesitantly responded he was. Although Jazan did not trust him, Brynn reminded Altador that Hanso was their only lead, and they agreed to hear him out. | Altador asked if [[Jazan]] was there to free the faeries from the curse, to which hesitantly responded he was.

Hanso explained that he was on the way to the festival - "You mean you were going to steal from the faeries at their festival." - he saw [[Hubrid Nox]], who was holding a shiny artefact and chanting an incantation.

After a blinding flash of light, Nox had vanished and all the faeries were stone. Although Jazan and Altador doubted Hubrid Nox would be powerful enough to curse all the faeries, Brynn vouched that he would have no reason to lie, and that the artefact Hanso claimed to have seen may have something to do with it. | ||
The group headed in to Faerie City to see [[Xandra]], a [[Xweetok]] who too was investigating the curse. On seeing Hanso, however, she became enraged - he had stolen several valuable artefacts from her hut earlier. | The group headed in to Faerie City to see [[Xandra]], a [[Xweetok]] who too was investigating the curse.

As soon as Hanso snuck in through one of the castle windows, he was spotted by Nox. Hanso asked Nox about the artefact - but Nox didn't seem to know what he was talking about. At that moment, an alarm went off, and Nox saw through his crystal ball Altador and the others storming the gates. Nox opened a secret passageway, threw the crystal ball, and made good his escape. | As soon as Hanso snuck in through one of the castle windows, he was spotted by Nox.

Brynn rushed in and the door sealed behind her - through the crystal ball, Hanso and Brynn could see the others were sealed in as well. The pair followed the secret passageway Nox escaped through - Brynn all the while berating Hanso for letting Nox escape - and found a strange wooden control board. | Brynn rushed in and the door sealed behind her - through the crystal ball, Hanso and Brynn could see the others were sealed in as well.

Brynn and Hanso reminisced as to the first time they met, and after a while Xandra excused herself to go to her own books. When they reached Brightvale, they noticed the colour seemed to have gone from it. Brynn dutifully locked Hanso up, but promised she would return after going to the library. | Brynn and Hanso reminisced as to the first time they met, and after a while Xandra excused herself to go to her own books.

Brynn found a book with a picture of a larger artefact that resembled the one Hanso stole. She showed him the book in his jail sell when sounds of a battle reached them - Brightvale was under attack. She gave Hanso the book to look after as she rushed off to help. After she left, Hanso used his belt to grab his [[wikipedia:lock picking|lock picking]] equipment from outside the cell and broke out. He called for the guards, and as they rushed in, smacked their heads together | Brynn found a book with a picture of a larger artefact that resembled the one Hanso stole.

Outside the castle, Brynn and the Brightvale guards were fighting the Shadow Spectres in the streets. Hanso rushed to her aid, and tried to get her to leave with him, noting that without Altador, Jazan, and the others, they didn't stand a chance. Brynn told Hanso it wasn't his fight and that she didn't expect him to stay. Brynn lost her sword killing a Spectre and was carried off by them, Hanso was surrounded and escaped by using a [[wikipedia:catapult|catapult]] to throw him out of the city. | Outside the castle, Brynn and the Brightvale guards were fighting the Shadow Spectres in the streets.
