The Clan have adventured together before, to great success. Now their presence has been requested in the town of Luskan, a pirate port in the west. They meet in one of the local taverns at night and relax after their long and arduous journey and partake in dice games, storytelling and of course, ale. Unbeknownst to them someone is watching them, waiting. The mysterious traveler observes the group, assessing their strengths, weaknesses and the perfect way to infiltrate and destroy them. That is her mission after all.

In the morning they meet with Celaena, a pirate captain with questionable morals and apparently the only person willing to converse with the group as a whole, who provides them with their quest. She tells them that it is not uncommon for people to just vanish in a place like Luskan but some of the higher ups in the town think that the choice of people is rather concerning. 7 are missing; a priest who serves Amaunator and six students of magic. There have been whisperings about ancient masks of power falling into the wrong hands. Separately these masks would be easy to defeat, but if they are being gathered together, all could be lost.

Their mission is to find out who has taken these people and for what purpose. Then the party can choose to stop whoever took them or bring them back to town for justice.

Will they succeed? Will the mysterious traveler complete their task or will they defect?
