Synopsis
A Sarrubian asks the Investigators to accompany him on a quest to find his lost friends and return them to their home world.
This is a fairly linear adventure: the investigators either refuse to help the quest-giver and get no adventure, or they agree to help. Agreeing to help takes the investigators on a trip to the Dylath-Leen slave markets to look for information, then they buy a boat and take a trip into space to Sarrub to consult an Oracle Mirror, and from there a they take a trip to Yundu to rescue the lost friends.
Some variety is implied in random encounters during the voyages and in the various locations the investigators visit or pass on their journeys, though the keeper is left to invent the details.
Plot Hooks: The Wenelian pirates might become recurring villains; the investigators' voyage may take them past any number of strange and wondrous destinations the investigators won't be able to visit during this adventure but may be able to visit later; the Sarrubians may pay the investigators friendly visits in the future.

Player Handouts: (none)
Locations: Dreamlands
Creatures: Sarrubian, Dreamlands Cat, Larvae of the Outer Gods, Wendigo, Wenelian, Phosphorescent monster
Tomes and Artifacts: potentially an Oracle Mirror (the investigators probably wouldn't be able to get it intact without botching the adventure, though; further, it seems to have been corrupted into a gate for Wendigo demons); Space Mead (can be used to coat a boat's hull for travel in interplanetary space between dream worlds)
Campaigns / Scenarios: (stand-alone scenario)

Keeper Comments
This scenario will involve travel through the Dreamlands of Earth and the planets Sarrub and Yundu. Although the adventure has no connection to events in the Waking World, the keeper should feel free to incorporate it into an ongoing campaign as he sees fit. The adventure works equally well for investigators who are new to the dreamlands, or for those who are experienced dreamers.
Descriptions of Sarrubians and Fortune the Cat are provided in the adventure, Wenelians and Phosphorescent monsters are described in the Dreamlands Bestiary; by default, the other monsters barely make an appearance unless the investigators do something unexpected.
