Summary
He remembered feeling content, strangely…happy. That itself was a bit unsettling. A dream, but it felt more like a memory, or perhaps a hallucination. Maybe he was in the middle of a long-overdue nervous breakdown.

Summary
Essek's heart jumped. Making him a comforting meal was a sweet gesture, but having Molly bring it to him while he laid in bed like, a- a spoiled prince,....It would be terribly selfish of him to accept that, wouldn't it? Cheeks and ears burning, he tried to protest. But, Molly just shushed and tutted away his objections. In the blink of an eye, he found himself tucked into bed resting against a mound of pillows.
-----Essek comes down with a fever. He doesn't want to take too much, but Molly is having none of it.

Summary
The more Verin dug into it, the more convinced he became. Essek had spent an inordinate amount of time with the Mighty Nein when they came to Rosohna. Done all sorts of strange favors for them. Ferried them all over Wildemount. Arranged visits with prisoners in the Dungeon of Penance. Let them dig up his yard. Descended into Aeor with them, unaccompanied. Accepted invitations to dinner. Let one of them hug him. In public. More than once.
Mind control. It had to be.
Verin gets it into his head that Essek has been kidnapped by the Mighty Nein (specifically Caleb), and sets out on a solo rescue mission to Rexxentrum.
Hijinks ensue.
