The Black Seal Sabotage

The ruined supply wagon held less cargo than it should have, because the Obsidian Tribunal Acolytes had already begun diverting the provisions and destroying the route records. Their coin pouch, marked dagger, and volcanic-glass holy symbol point to a small but organized operation. The Bound Spirit Scribe left behind unstable magical paperwork, a trapped shard of spectral energy, and a sealed record that may identify the next wagon targeted. Most of the recovered goods are practical supplies and low-value equipment, but the Spirit-Binding Seal and Ghost Route Tally suggest this ambush was part of a wider scheme.
