They snuck in as pest control. Glithgeb reading minds learned of a shipment of weapons heading toward Iosal that was very dangerous. They confronted the summoner (Aeron Setterstet) and found a Cubic Gate which, among other things, had a portal that went to a missing prototype Air Sub. They knocked Aeron unconscious and took him by sneaking out of the area.

Session 2

The honey badger showed up. They welcomed him but explained that they would need time to find the man. They interrogated Aeron and learned that he was trapped. They disabled him further and then knocked him unconscious. They went to the Airsub and found it haunted. They summoned Timmy the Cabin boy who told them of the curse on the ship.
