A Tall Man with a Tall Hat

The next day they learn there are ferries to Bogenhafen from Bonn and book passage on one. It will depart around lunchtime.

While booking the ferry, Johanna spots the strange man who scratched his ear. Bart grabs a disguise and goes after him, watching him and sees him go back to his friend. The man then meets a Tall Man in a tall hat. (Future note: This is Adolphus).

The Tall Man and the other man go together to the house Bart had the begger watch. Bart continues to watch the house. Later the Tall Man meets up with more thug-like man, making three of them plus the Tall Man. Together they leave the house and move to watching the ferry.

At Johanna’s suggestion, the Adventurers go and confront the Tall Man. He is surprised but unco-operative and says he is watching them. He calls Bart Magister Impediment but does not explain what he means.

Bart bribes a beggar to tell the authorities that the people in Adolphus’s house are Catholic spies, in league with the Witches to destroy the town.
