Nightshade Seizure

The following is to report that whilst collecting census forms for the Mayor, we discovered a note indicating that there might be suspicious doings at the farms near Shame pass.

With the Mayor in tow I led a patrol to the farms. A search of the west farm proved clear, but in the east farm Corporal James found a bundle of nightshade stuffed in an armoire. The Mayor seemed highly interested (a little too interested) and speculated upon where the nightshade might have come from.

With that in mind and having ordered Rookie Tamm Sharpe to confiscate the nightshade, we moved off to check the surroundings and the coastline and came upon an entire field of the shade. It seems they'd been growing it right in the heart of Yew. We immediately cleared the field and set up a pyre, which myself and Brother Tripps ignited with bombs.

At this time I checked the Mayor's person for any stray nightshade buds and we returned to Stonekeep.
