	The town of Brightwater was introduced. The party visited the Brightbeer Saloon and got some mission details from Brendan Fraser and Barbara. They beat up on some local ne'er-do-wells known as the Redbrands in the saloon before stocking up at [[Bart]]'s Provisions and Inn. The party also received a mysterious puzzle jar from Mr. Fraser which they were unable to open. Later, the party went down [[Ira's Bend]] in search of [[Rada]]'s brother Ira and the mage Sildar. They reached an outpost where they killed a few Kreen and found signs of a struggle from over a week ago. [[Gene]] shared the first of his many wonderful ballads and ditties with the group before calling it a night.		The town of Brightwater was introduced.

	Tina accepted Bart's offer to be deputy of Brightwater. The party set sail into the Kharmaja. They found the pylon, where the teleportation sigil had been originally found carved on a wall by Brendan Fraser. Tina recognized that it had been defaced by Mercan tools, and they found some sand of disappearance hidden in the structure. Heading northwest, Gene's climate-controlled tiny hut became a smash hit with the crew and Rada suggested Ira focus on light. Rada saw a shooting star crash into the dunes, yet Voss was indifferent. The party investigated the glassy crater with a 9-foot diameter moon crystal, Tina received visions of Selune and a mysterious male figure, and they brought the crystal on deck and covered it. The next day, Tily talked with Fang on their quest to uncover any doppelgangers among the ''Laughing Lady's'' crew. The ship reached an oasis, where the party fought some water elementals and made the acquaintance of a serpopard (or slerpant). Tily talked to a tree by the oasis and uncovered an airtight entrance, Rada spied empty tents and 2 gravestones ("RIP Porkmorkdorkmorkdorkmorkpork" and "RIP Xelsei [[Rose]]"), and the group swam into tunnels below the oasis. They found a sarcophagus and removed the lid. A mummified corpse and a [[ghost]] floated out of the [[vessel]].		Tina accepted Bart's offer to be deputy of Brightwater.

	Back on the sand again, a very homesick Gene exposes himself while his party is away in a cabin where he sing his original song "You'll be my Horse Cart". Unbeknownst Tily, who pops in at the end to give Gene a compliment on his wonderful music, Gene was for possibly the first time ever in his true form. Tina, while also with Tily outside the cabin, was not seen only heard sniffling from the beauty that is Gene's music. Meanwhile, Tily and Tina go back to the main deck where Tily is approached by Fang. After previous conversations, Fang gives Tily his bug notebook to give to Tina. Tily approaches Tina with the notebook to which Tina is fascinated by all the known and unknown critters Fang has been able to draw. Tina immediately begins to sync journals, making sure to add sticky notes into Fang's with entomology on whatever creatures she has encountered. She also notices that on the last few pages, Fang has drawn pictures of the party with small labels for names underneath. Seeing a opportunity for mischief, Tina labels "Party Pooper" under Rada's image.

	As night draws near and Rada takes first watch, a giant bug creature 20ft tall begins to assault the ''Laughing Lady''. Rada, Gene, and Voss do their best to alert the sleeping ship and party while fending off this giant monstrosity. After much effort from the group and many missed shots by Tina, Tily was able to smash the pinchers of the creature off the ship as it fell to the sandy floor below. Tina then casted ''web'' to entrap it while the crew fired the fatal blows from cannons. The creature was no more. Tina and Tily went down to inspect the body and salvage whatever could be taken. In the end, they got enough exoskeleton for a regular shield and a new hat for Tily. Tina spent the next 2hrs crafting a hat while Tily explained what "melee" combat was.

	That evening, while Gene stays up on deck to keep ''Tiny Hut'' up for Voss, he is awoken by what appeared to be our dear and departed friend, Brendan Fraser. Soon the figure changed form into Voss, then back into Ollie Barnet, and then once more into a new form that claimed to be Gene's father. It was soon learned that Voss this whole time was Gene's doppelganger father. After an exchange of passionate words, and a warning for the party, Gene's father hopped of the stern of the ship, along with the only known spyglass. Before departing, however, Gene's father did seem to come to a point of realization that his son is not like his father, and that Gene was of sound mind with determination to see the party's quest fulfilled. Gene's father departed with a warning "Nezza's eyes are red." That same night, Tily inquires after Ira to Rada. Tily also asks if Ira would be in a position to look into Tily's father, being that Nezza threatened their lives in a dream. Rada later tried to contact Ira who was drunk as a skunk in Brightbeer Saloon. Ira responded with what would be known as a drunk butt text. The message perplexed Rada greatly.
