27th Ascending Air
The mismatched Circle decides to go back to the "Roll of the Dead", and a few short hours later they once again enter through the creaky doors. The Man (Who's name I have forgotten), tells them that he has uncovered seven potential "Su-Chi" candidates. Somewhat crestfallen, the Circle asks for the scroll of information and tomb co-ordinates. After having a brief look, they realise that the tomb locations are hidden by a Sijanese Morticioans Guild cipher of pictographs, so they need to hire a guide. Conveniently, the old man is still standing there. Upon being asked for a guide, he smiles and suggests Master Wu as an excellent choice at a reasonable price. They agree and are soon met by a perfunctory old man in dark robes who takes their map and leads them through the twisted streets.
It takes over an hour to get to the first tomb, and on the way Jade Wisdom once again starts up a conversation about Sijanese Art and Architecture. This time, though, there is Master Wu to discuss the topic with, much to the enjoyment of both.
Upon arrival they see that it is the Tomb of Heset Su Chi. It is a modest Tomb, by Sijanese standards, and Jade Wisdom deduces that it is not old enough, only dating back to the Late Shogunate period, give or take. Frustrated, they then continue on to the next tomb.
On the way, the Jadeborn is hugged by the naughty Solar who makes him do bad things...
A couple of hours later and Savvy and the girls are cold, as the sun has a hard time penetrating the maze of alleyways. But the Tomb of Garm Su Chi stands before them. This tomb is bigger and more of a mausoleum, with many entombed family members and associated entourages. Again, they conclude it is the wrong tomb. It seems that Garm was a Shogunate ruler from the Hundred Kingdoms region.
They consider hurrying to the next tomb, but decide it is getting too close to nightfall to make it there and then back to the hotel in time. So agreeing to start afresh the next day they head back to the hotel.
