Yep. Thanks for sorting this mess... Sha'al vaguely gestures in Austn's direction out in a reasonable manner. What sort of work are you in regularly; if it's all the same.

"Yes, thank you, Captain." - Kaelestia says, grateful that the man stepped in so they could be paid fairly. - "And of course if you are in need of any extra help, we will be at your disposal."

"Oh, I just run a simple merchant ship, nothing fancy," the captain answers. "But I know a lot of folks in the city, and can get word around pretty easily through them."

Parra snore.
"Well, at least you have a self preservation instict if nothing else." when she get the money.
"Actually, I didnt knew if we will leave on good terms,but since we did, I would like to take a whole corpse to study back to our ship."
(and to take the shatangs- I think I didbt mentioned recollecting them)

Despite being incredibly rude to the captain for no apparent reason, he graciously allows Parra to take one of the skulk corpses with her, as well as collect her shatangs.

The party returns to the ship, drawing a number of stares from onlookers as one carries a strange dead body, and another is escorted by a wild and dangerous looking animal.

"They wanted those gems, no?" - Kaelestia says, answering Parra. - "They did pretty valuable. And they did pay us richly for retrieving them."
The priestess pets Krenari from time to time, especially when she notices someone particularly impressionable.

Seems to have been their only goal, given the fire. Sha'al agrees. I wonder if any other vessels or buildjngs in port have suffered similar fates lately... he muses

Asking around, there doesn't seem to have been any similar incidents any time recently.
The party returns to their ship to get some rest and lick their wounds.
The following day is Pestilence 4th. After having breakfast in the mess, the party moves up to the upper deck when they notice a youth, a young human boy of perhaps 10 or 11 years old, approaching the gangplank. He holds up a scroll in the air. "You the crew of the Squall? Got a message for your captain!" he calls out.
==============
(OOC: Everyone regains 1 HP after spending the rest of the day resting. Casters may choose new spells for the day.)

"Um. I guess gems are valuable. It just felt a bit random."
At night beside preparing spells, she does autopsy and expriements on the body.
If anyone is curiouse they are invited to join and help.
She study the skulk's anatomy, writing it down, peeling few pieces of skin, and preseving theim in diverse conditions in diffrent jars.
Parra would try to study thr skulk"s blood.
Also, very focused on the skin and what underneath it. Mostly curiouse about their ability to dissapear, and looking in general if it has a biological explanation to it.
With the pieces of skin- maybe over the close days in her free, would try to trigger it with diffrent objects and material.
If it require buying stuff to make the research happen- she would.
-----
Parra prepare
level 1- audiable glamour, Magic Missile
level 2- Choke
---
Parra look around.
"Um. Who is even our Captain?"

OOC: All spells are the same except curse will become command.
"What do you mean who is our captain?" Sumina asks. "It's Sha'al."
