Baldur's Gate : The Sword Coast Chronicles : NWN2 Persistent World

a scene just after the massacre.

Adventurers help to stop muggings, thefts and even volunteer to heal the sick and give people food. The mood is still foul. A street thug lair is assaulted by a huge adventuring party, temporarily halting the thug activities. A lone bandit stumbles outside of the hideout, the only survivor of the fierce struggle. The city is lucky to have people who volunteer their lives like that to save others.

During the day, several posters are put up in noticeable places throughout the city of Baldur's Gate by a priest of Lathander wearing a golden-trimmed white robe.

*A woman in grey, wearing a death mask is routinely seen in the docks gathering the bodies of the dead in one of the warehouses left empty due to the blockade. Uttering soft prayers to consecrate the grounds and warding them from rising as the undead.

Some are left in the pyres blazing, which are keept stoked through divine fires. Though instead of casting them carelessly they are laid down with as much dignity as can be managed.

Before dragging away each body she can be seen planting two white gloved fingers to the lips of her mask and then down on their foreheads. Whispering a soft litany to each of the dead before carrying their earthly remains away.*

A call for aid of able hands

Volunteers are needed for an intrusion into the docks in attempts to suppress the spread of the disease. Those able to administer to the diseased, and those with able strength to move large weights and ensure peace is maintain are necessary for any success to be wrought.

You will be subject to conditions where you will be in contact with those inflicted with the disease, and where humanity is faced with depravity. Provisions will be ensured that volunteers do not fall victim to the disease. I ask only of those of the strong gutted, faltering in commands will undermined any success.
22:00 on the 14th of Alturiak
We gather at the Temple of Ilmater hour 21:30 on the 28th of Hammer. It is requested that volunteers dress in nothing heavier than leathers. Manual labour will be expected, and it is not war we bring to the docks.

A man dressed in bardic fashion, wielding a drum...wielding a beat that vibrates the core of those caught in its undulating rhythm, walks the line of quarantine, half-singing a spoken word of resistance....:

• Again and again
  Those will a mind of only themselves, proving to themselves their own worth....
  Do as only they please...intrude!
  And as they say in writing....INTRUSION!
  
  And so it is, they enter our home district
  Not honoring the House that exists there...
  The House that has given cure and shelter to those that give Tribute!
  
  The Docks are of the people that reside there...
  Meddling do-goeders...those that BROUGHT the disease to you
  Now walk into our home...
  
  And they do so without Tribute...to the Queen...
  
  But is not only this tribute do they fail to give...
  It is failure to ALL the other houses that live from the harbor
  Those known...and those that go unknown....
  
  Words have power, citizens...
  Regard the word INTRUSION with suspect!
  
  Seek the House that has served you weeks now, the Queen that rewards Tribute
  For this House will remain...when these sycophants fade away...
  Once they have fulfilled their selfish needs...
  
  Mark my words! It WILL happen!
  
  

*entry in Sani's journal, probably OOC to most*
2015-02-13:
After many plague rats emerged on the streets again, I went into the sewers again with a party along with Terri, Cela, and some guy I forgot the name of.

Anyway, we once again found the rats fleeing progressively more dangerious undead rats, terminating in a massive undead rat who seemed to be spreading the plague.

When we killed that massive rat the air did seem to clear up again.

However, the maggots showed up again. I think the maggots are somehow contributing to the larger and more disfigured rats. There presence in the massive rat makes me wonder if there is some final, epic monster lurking somewhere below the city.

While most of the attention is given to the city of Baldurs Gate, Mendel is seen travelling to the North. His only company his animal companion following on his tracks. The stops for rest are short, aiming to reach his destination as soon as possible...

An orc leaving the blushing mermaid inn was assaulted by flaming fist then was quietly removed from the city after the orc bribe the guards for his life

Several people of various faiths and backgrounds were seen gathering at the Temple of Ilmater to prepare to venture into the Docks again in a larger number than the last effort made to aid the sick. Supplies were brought by many and then distributed among each other, so everyone was able to either cure disease with spells, healing kits, potions or wands. A mysterious woman joined the group, bringing in a rather large quantity of supplies as well. A Flaming Fist escort was also provided and the group were able to freely move through the Docks, displaying several banners of Ilmater.
They moved to a warehouse, setting down supplies inside and built make-shift altars with signs outside and then relying on the word of those cured to bring news to other citizen. The stream of the sick who needed to be cured was much more controlled at the entrance and with Flaming Fist standing guards. Several cats served as helpers too, in taking care of rats which carried the sickness.
After a long day with many sick, the group managed to cure most but at the end, some had to be turned away as all supplies the group had come with were on end. Donations given to the Temple of Ilmater had been used to gather many of those supplied used. It was estimated that at least 1000 people were cured in the warehouse. A few people who looked as if they were starving, were given an amount of grain - a small relief to get through the day.
