We were invited to a fancy party in Waterdeep. Sadly, instead of a festive evening we got an abandoned house and some minor undead. The house was kind of cosy, but the lady of the house planned on sacrificing us and in our attempt to destroy them we were sucked back onto the material plane.
... When I'm good enough a wizard, I'm going to build my own mansion in the Border Ethereal...

After spending the week in town, a Emerald Enclave contact informed us, that the Paragon's husband wanted to meet us. He informed us, that he suspects something is wrong with this spouse, even though he can't quite put his finger on it.
Investigating the sewers, a young girl was attacked by a awful creature. We were able to save her, but not before she turned herself into a yeti. When she calmed down, she explained, that she's a were-yeti and her friend, a full-yeti got kidnapped by somebody resembling the paragon. She saw the man around the sewers more often lately and something seems to be off about him. She begged us to save her friend, and so we took up the chase.
After being caught in the same Monster, that we fought previously, we managed to cut our way out of its stomach, to find the Paragon and Theema, talking to the Paragon's twin, trying to convince him to leave his evil ways. A battle ensued in which the twin killed the yeti. It was tough, but in the end we were able to subdue him and Theema, with the help of a diamond the twin carried, could revive the yeti, leading to a happy reunion

Still in Phlan, the settlers were worried about the lighthouse's light, that had been extict for two days now. Guarded over by the lords of Sokol Keep and the guards of the Blackfist, it ensured safe travel in and out of the port. After asking around a bit, the Sokol's family spokesperson tasked us with finding out what has been going on in the island, where rumors of ghosts and ghost-ships ran rampant.
On the island we initially investigated the young master's rooms in the west tower. He seemed to have a fascination with Tyr (a god whose worship is currently out of fashion) and all things culty. When we found his secret shrine to Tyr and his diary, it became clear, that he and the head of the Blackfist, Krell, were looking into demon summoning, especially summoning Dagon, the Lord of the Depths.
We then entered the haunted east tower and descended into an underground cavern, where some armors greeted us as well as the recently resurrected corpses of Igan Sokol and a few other unlucky persons. A huge, threatening satute to Dagon was keeping watch over the scene. We were able to dispatch them and destroy the evil statue, when Krell and his Blackfists emerged. Turns out, Krell has been a Dagon-worshipper all along and killed Igan when he attempted to destroy the altar. We were able to take him prisoner and deliver him to the Blackfist as well as the Sokol-family and light up the lighthouse once again

Oh boy. The rumors of the Ghost Ship perveiled in Phlan and the local gravekeeper asked us to further investigate. A lot of settlements along the shoreline have been raided, burnt down and in its wake the attackers left peciuliarly goblin bones.
So we set out to a small island village that is suspected to be next in the raiders path while a storm cut off our way back to Phlan. The villagers were extremly cold toward us. Only one wanted to actually talk, and that man had clearly lost his mind when the ghost ship "Audacity" attacked his village and a dracolich burnt it down. I spent the night in his shack, since the only other possibility seemed to be the stable - where we uncovered planks from the original "Audacity", swept ashore years ago.
The next day we followed the warnings of the village's old crones and went to find the monsters in the forest. We found a hole in the ground and in it a turly terrifying altar. It was there when I left. The others later informed me that is was an altar to Tiamat and that someone within the village had forged a contract with her to protect her against the attacks of the ghost ship. Since my comrads quickly destroyed everything in there, the crones were not too happy. And sure enough - came nightfall the village was attacked. But peculiarly enough, not by ghosts and undead - there was way to much blood spilling when they were once again laid to rest.
When we rushed to the bay, we saw a ship by the name of "Audacity", ghostly yes, but not really otherworldy patrolling the shore. We jumped into a rowing boat and while we were on our way there, from the depths of the ocean came a truly ghostly sight: The apparition of a ship, long sunken, bearing the name "Audacity" and now engaging in combat with the other ship. When we rowed there, a healty brawl on deck had broken out. An intense battle later, all two crews lay dead. One part of them truly ghosts, the others mostly human, but covered in illusions to make them look like ghosts. Turns out the human pirate crew had borrowed the name "Audacity" and, with the help of a lot of illusions and goblin-bones, created these otherworldly raids. Yet when we broke the contract with Tiamat, the real Audacity sprung back to unlife and took revenge on the imposters
