Hengistbury is abuzz with activity—the weekend long Summer Festival is in a mere three days! The annual pie eating contest with Thornbury is one of the most anticipated events, and the smell of berry pies fills the marketplace. There are also a number of other competitions all of which the PCs are encouraged to take part in for a small entry fee.

The adventurers will need to travel from Northminster to the Weirwood, where they will meet with Granny Appleseed. They will be pursued by Tariq Crestveil, who still believes that the adventurers kills dhis sister Annika.

The last memories the party has from before the cult are from Hengistbury, but just being in the town isn't quite enough to bring anything back. The PCs must dig a little deeper and become more familiar with this place and its citizens to get the whole picture. Each adventurer must trigger at least 3 mundane memories to remember what brought them to the cult in the first place: being abducted by a mysterious figure into a covered wagon either by drugs, trickery, or violence.

Having now received the "lock and key" from Granny Appleseed, the party must travel to Hengistbury in hopes of turning over their minds until they find their missing memories. Belton will accompany them there, but afterwards he insists on getting back to Northminster and business as usual. For the return trip, use the same journey rules for their initial trip to the Weirwood.

If the party fails at an encounter on their way to Halfpoint, Tariq is their next encounter. Otherwise, he's the first encounter after they leave Halfpoint.
