Bolo is already planning to give two of the rose-colored healing potions to Friedrich. Or all three if Friedrich wants them.
In general, I don't really care who carries the healing liquids. Whoever needs healing first will get to use them, whoever happens to be carrying them at the time. And Bolo certainly doesn't need the extra encumbrance. He only has them because he didn't want to leave them behind in Sherlane's basement spare bedroom.
Same goes for the holy salts.
Is there a reason why Fin shouldn't have the ring of swimming?

If nothing else, it is good to split up multiple potions, healing waters, protective salts, holy waters and bind wound treatments to avoid all of them being destroyed at the same time. Also sometimes a healer can't get to you in the middle of a fight, so it is good to have a back up.
No reason Fin can't have the ring of swimming. But I think it ended up with him by default (since he was previously carrying it) rather than it being awarded to him. Paavo or Dan would like it just in case - they wear armor and have low strength and constitution. If we end up in the water accidentally they will go down quickly.

Paavo begins We are on a quest to reunite our companion with his shadow. Have you not heard the story of the dwarf with no shadow? It is a tale of daring and noble deeds. It includes the rescuing of elves from vampires in the Blightwood, the slaying of Sylaire's bane, the freeing of the Silver Princess and a harrowing run to escape from the armies of Denagoth. Unfortunately it has not had a happy ending yet. For while Friedrich has striven to help the denizens of the forest, he has had to walk a lonely path without his shadow. And now he seeks to be reunited once more with his shadow. Which even now must wanders the faery road in search of Friedrich. He will pause at this point to see if the story is having a positive impact on the Fae. Paavo holds their attention for a brief span, and there are some muffled whispers at the name Sylaire, but he knows he's lost them when a bunch of dancing lights form around his head. How about we shoot a few arrows at a target, and then we'll be on our way." The visible fairy asks "why so hasty?" which causes the invisible pixies to erupt in laughter. Do I recall correctly that one of us has a bottle of brandy? Would that person be willing to offer it as a prize for the archery? If Bolo wins, he will be happy to return it, once we're away from the pixies, if you want it back. Ingrid was saving it for a rainy day but she'll volunteer it. The pixies seem interested in the brandy and ante up some fey-wine of their own. They'll shoot with Bolo but they don't think the contest is fair because Danakes is so tall... unless he wouldn't mind being shrunk to their size?

I am pretty sure that Danakes does not wish to be shrunk. Bolo says, "Let's have a contest for just us little guys, then. But to make it fair, everyone who's shooting needs to be visible. Are you all going to shoot, or just one of you?"

Nothing about Colby's mention of She Who Sings at the Vernal House?

Did you scribe Wall of Bone before you cast it from that scroll?
Are you rolling that system shock or drinking the poison or what?

Bolo has a tallow candle in his backpack. He'll use it like a crayon to draw a target on a suitable tree. And he'll jam his wooden stake in the ground to mark a place to stand. How about a dozen shots each, and whoever scores the most wins the liquor?
I'll leave the range and the details of the target to the DM's discretion, unless you want me to specify them. And Bolo politely says he's open to suggestions if the pixies have another way they want to work this.
Let's shoot. Bolo isn't waiting for the resolution of the hasted dancing thing. Part of the point of this is to distract the attention of the pixies from whatever weirdness Colby and Fin are getting up to with poisons, etc.

And trying another if that fails. We only have 3 units of spell ink left, so I can't have written it. I guess that means it's just gone.

If we're going to play out the archery contest in person, at this point, then ignore this message. If we're still going to do it on the board, then when it's over, whoever wins, Bolo will ask the pixie archer if he'd like to trade one of his arrows for one of Bolo's. Bolo would like a souvenir of today's enjoyable and memorable contest. (I'm hoping for one of the sleep-inducing ones, though that's probably far too optimistic.)
