Here are some notes i took on Season 2 Ep 1:

The Academy/ The Soltrice(?) Academy. Caleb: “Good luck at the academy it's rough I hear” “It's a very fancy place.””all I know is that it's a hard place to get into.” Rich people... Fjord has an interest in going.

Bookstore in Trostinwald: Hillsbrook Parchment and Binding Matthew Mercer: "Lots of books on farming technique. Lots of books on how to grow and care for different types of vegetation, plants, various beasts of burden." "You find books on the different seasons on what's best for different types of grain and wheats." "You manage to pull through and find a couple of books that deal with discussion on the Menagerie Coast(?), that talk about what's called the Clovus Concord(?), it's more of a discussion on the political structure that maintains the city states there." Liam: "The person who ran this place was an older man right?" Liam/Matthew Mercer: "Shebaiti(?)" Sheena

Haven't seen any other book sellers in town. No other book sellers in town. Closest Library is in Zadash(?) Up north. That is where the library of the Cobalt Soul(?) Resides. Bit pricey to peruse their selection

Caleb finds a book on Hoe Technique called Jamison's(?) Hoedown(?) It costs 2 silver pieces (2sp).

The shop is a boutique with a layout like a cross, with windows at the ends and 'a door at the back'(?).

Card Gambling Game: Crick(?) Queens Call Ante up Deal out 3 cards to each player (3d6) Hide hand from other players Winning hands: Best hand 3 of a kind High straight Low straight All evens or odds 2 of a kind High card Up the Ante Can switch out one of your cards/ rolls if you want Reroll that die Reveal hand

The Bombok has the blessing of the Starosta: Fredalunga the starosta is kind of tied to the Bombok family. “The title of starost or starosta (Cyrillic: старост/а, Latin: capitaneus, German: Starost) designates an official or unofficial leader, used in various contexts through most of Slavic history. One can translate it as "senior" or "elder". The word comes from the Slavic root star-, "old". In Poland, a starosta would administer a territory called a starostwo.

In the early Middle Ages, the starosta was the head of a Slavic community or of other communities so one finds designations such as church starosta, artel starosta, etc. The starosta also functioned as the master of ceremonies in traditional Carpatho-Rusyn, Ukrainian, and Polish weddings, similar to stari svat (стари сват) in Serbian weddings.” https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Starosta

Crowns Guard Hired and trained Malika that are sent throughout all the cites to keep the peace. Bronze and Vermillion uniforms They light the hanging lanterns on the streets at dusk. Guards: Sevemin(?) rushes to get other guards (brings in 10 crowns guard (watch master one that has his helmet off and kind of under his shoulder/ arm. maybe in his early 40s or so. Short brown hair with patches of grey. Sort of jaundiced skin. Sorter man than Gustav but looks upon him with a sense of status, disinterest and disrespect. Speak on the behalf of the Starosta in appreciation for party having dealt with the threat) Guards out of their depth never seen anything like this before (undead zombie monsters, contagious curse if killed by the entity, can have the full might of the Cerberus Assembly track you down)

Flinn One guy left, shaking almost. Never had to deal with anything like this before. He's been doing this for over 10 years. 10 years (2 months ago) sweating, scared Trying to use whatever train he was given to deal with a scenario he wasn't trained for. Equipment: sword(?) (/blade), helmet 5 guards left behind to watch the circus members

The (Carnival) procession curves through the center of the Lockward(?) To the edge of of the Ustilock(?) Itself through the Fishing Village.

Nestled nook inn Yorda, the 40 something woman barkeep, with the shoulder length blonde hair and weathered skin. Person rooms are rented from. Frantically darts behind the bar while the

Redhead barmaid rushes from table to table (seems that the clientele is a bit more than what they were expecting this morning). Yorda “Adelyn! Two more brights and a bit of mush to the corner table!” Adelyn “I'm working on it!” ...head back to the kitchen Job board: one sheet of someone in the Hills ward looking for folks to do an extermination run near the southern portion of the Ustilock. Looks like there seems to be a vole infestation.

Menu: Trosts (ale) (brights?), baked goods, potatoes, porridge (mush), eggs, various meats (bacon, pork belly, )

Trosts: Great insult when sampling ales at one one the breweries to refer to their ale by the generic name of Trost. The families correct you and say the family name very intent on getting rid of the name of Trost as an overall. Discussion of Trost brand brews trying to make their family name… there's almost an offense. Want their brand name to be used and spread. “It's pleasurable to have a Trost” -a popular saying Hussledorf family brewery, meet Voss and June who are the two very nice ladies who run the facility.

Fjord allergic to cats. Disguise magic? Academy is the place to be. Where they teach you magic. Rich people go there

In the southern more rural region of the Empire, especially near Felderwind(?), which is one of the largest, kind of, tilling and farming areas of the entire Empire there is a very heavy halfling population. And so while this city is not the core of it, ~I'd say~ you see a larger 20-25% of the population here in Trostinwald is halfling.

Bo the Breaker Gustav Toya Dwarven girl. Singing with the circus for over two years. Had no family. She was singing in the streets for change and there was an opportunity the they seized. Gave her a family she didn't have. Orna the fire fairy
