If all goes well during the night, I will head to the church first thing and see what is needed and of course, get some breakfast.

In the morning, I ask the barkeep if he would know anything about an order of monks on the island.

As if you all expect the night to go uneventfully. :D

To Mithos:

You are jolted from sleep by a thundering crack and a blinding flash. You find your window is open, to the night air, but that does little to cover the stench of charred flesh. The sword case is open on the floor, a smoldering corpse beside of it. Two other smallish forms are staggering to their feet near the open window.

If all goes well, ask the barmaids and innkeeper about Karthadon. Location, and anything else they may know.

Things didn't go well. :D

Your sleep is interrupted by a thunderclap, just when you are about to convince yourself that is merely a storm, you hear a comotion in the hallway (running feet, a womens scream, cursing etc.) Then the smell of charred flesh reaches your nose.

Gather my wits and step out to see what is going on. Dagger in hand.

I let out a cry for help, gather my weapons and attempt to engage the figures by the window.
Any obvious signs of the sword nearby or on their possession, or, even still IN the case?

Mithos:

The case is open, sword is spilled onto the floor, near the smoldering husk.

As you gather your weapons the creatures gather their wits, and leap to attack. Moonlight glimmers off small blades the creatures have drawn.

As they close in, you get your first good look at your foes. They stand around 4' tall and are very rat-like in appearance.

The first creature swings wildly and misses, but the second manages a glancing blow (3 damage).

As you enter the hallway, you are nearly run over by a shrieking barmaid (Becca) who rushes by screaming "Monsters!".

A door is partially opened at the end of the hall, the sound of battle comes from within, along with the overpowering smell of burnt flesh and hair.
