Kenny - Syrus:@Simon - not looking for buyer this week - our next rest period I will do it via Forum as not to take up game time :)
Simon N. (GM):ok
Strohm of Leth (Muiz):Arriving in D'Ashe Manor "friends on my way back from dropping Lady Beverly at Master Tul. Lady Daetha wife of a local lord inform me that young children were kidnap by a troll in a dead of night and her husband left to rescue them. She request our help to rescue the missing children and lord please i need all your help to slay this troll"
Muiz:Hi Kenny
Malied:Yo
Kenny - Syrus:Hi Muiz! :)
Qiviel:Q sits up, "We cannot leave children in the hands of trolls."
Barbara D'Ashe:"How awful! We should help her." nods to Qiviel.
Geoff:Norrin nod. "Agreed. Neighbours must stick together."
Barbara D'Ashe:Hi James! Kenny maybe try a different browser?
Muiz:Hi James
Simon N. (GM):that was OOC :)
Qiviel:(Barbara was having a religious experience on a different plane of existence :D)
Muiz:Kenny maybe using a different browser microsoft edge works fine for me
Simon N. (GM):GM: Are you mounting up and heading for Egilmont? It's already 4pm so 2 hours to dusk.
Qiviel:Q is prepared to leave at once
Simon N. (GM):It's 16 miles, if you ride fast can be there a bit after 5pm - the horses will then need to rest.
Erasmus:Hi all. Sorry I'm late, PC was updating.
Kenny - Syrus:"Let's Troll some Trolls, Friends!!!"
Simon N. (GM):Hi Tim!
Strohm of Leth (Muiz):Hello Tim
Qiviel:(anyone not prepared to leave immediately to go fight a troll in the evening, call out, otherwise we'll take it as ok to go)
Geoff:Okay, let's bush through and get there before dark.
Barbara D'Ashe:"Norrin, take the Companions (that's the PCs) :) and see what can be done."
Malied:"Malied closes his book, ready when you are"
Geoff:"I will, my dear. Wish us luck."
Chris T.:back
Strohm of Leth (Muiz):"lets hurry before its too late"
Simon N. (GM):Barnara gives Norrin a goodbye kiss. "Come back to me." GM: You ride fast on the east road - this time of year the ground is still firm, a month or so before the autumn rains.
Erasmus:"Agreed, we need to do this before it gets too dark."
Kenny - Syrus:Syrus is looking forward to getting on his new horse "Erasni" - hoping it will go as fast as the old monk himself while in Way of the Wind mode
Geoff:*Norrin is riding his "new" warhorse, formerly belonging to Gurzun.
Malied:Malied rents a riding horse
Chris T.:Fraener has his sturdy pony
Strohm of Leth (Muiz):Strohm ride one of his Draft horse
Simon N. (GM):You are a dramatic sight as you gallop & canter across woods and heath, reaching Egilmont manot within the hour. Servants come to take your steeds and a teary Lady Daetha welcomes you, pointing the way to the troll trackson the edge of the village...
Qiviel:Q dismounts and leaves Rocco in their care and casts channel divinity sacred weapon to light up her sword like a torch.
Chris T.:"Best leave our mounts here?"
Malied:"indeed"
Qiviel:"Yes, they are tired and will not be happy near a troll lair."
Strohm of Leth (Muiz):"Friends should i cast light or are we sneaking to the trolls nest?"
Qiviel:"Light until we are near, so we can follow the tracks, that is my thought," Q says.
Simon N. (GM):GM: The manor stablehands will take good care of your hard-ridden steeds. You should have a nominated lead Tracker - ideally someone with a good Survival bonus.
Chris T.:"With a bit of luck the Troll will see the light and come to us. My legs aren't long enough for swamp work."
Strohm of Leth (Muiz):"i will follow youre suggestion Qeelia"
Kenny - Syrus:OOC Syrus has +2 Survival)
Erasmus:"I will lead, if that will suit."
Kenny - Syrus:Probs not enough!
Qiviel:(that's better than Q - she's only +1)
Chris T.:"Aye."
Malied:same
Qiviel:Q nods to Erasmus, "Lead on, friend."
Strohm of Leth (Muiz):Qiviel*
Simon N. (GM):OK, to follow tracks through woods is a DC 10. A second PC w Survival trained can Help, and other PCs could provide Guidance and/or Bardic Inspiration etc
Erasmus:"I am proficient, but any assistance is always appreciated."
Kenny - Syrus:Syrus will "help" his pal Erasmus
Strohm of Leth (Muiz):ooc (i dont have guidance or proficient in survival)
Chris T.:Fraener offers the Guoidance of Moradin to your ytask. +1d4
Simon N. (GM):If Syrus is Proficient in Survival he can Help giving Erasmus advtg
Kenny - Syrus:Saving Bardic Inspo for later me thinks
Erasmus:

Survival(+4)
Erasmus Bos (Tim)
Kenny - Syrus:Am proficient, in Survival
Strohm of Leth (Muiz):occ Phew
Kenny - Syrus:And Frae offered Guidance to add +4 to your roll
Erasmus:OOC Thanks for the guidance - only rolled a 4 on the die!!
Simon N. (GM):Cool. :) OK Erasmus at the front you follow the tracks through oak woods, close to the marsh stepping over carpets of acorns, for both peasants and wildlife have begun avoiding these parts.
Erasmus:Whispering "Keep your eyes and ears peeled, everyone."
Simon N. (GM):The sun is slipping behind the western mountains when you reach the edge of a dismal mire. This time of year the ground is fairly solid & Fraener probably need not fear sinking, though you'll certainly be getting muddy.
Strohm of Leth (Muiz):"Alright the Sun is set Eramus can i cast light now?"
Qiviel:Q can't help the moue of disgust behind her helmet at the muck sticking to her armour and that she'll have to clean it off later.
Simon N. (GM):Qiviel needs a squire!
Geoff:"Should we wait until morning? I don't relish the thought of blundering about in a swamp in the dark."
Malied:Malied casts Mage hand and has it hold his Robe above the marsh
Erasmus:(totally read that as 'squirrel'!!
Malied:"hmm, yes, it maybe wizer to wait"
Erasmus:"Sir Carlin may be breakfast."
Chris T.:"Wait? Here in the swamp, close to the Troll's lair?"
Qiviel:"We should push on."
Chris T.:"In this muck?"
Strohm of Leth (Muiz):"but then its too late the lord has just left if we can find we can leave and fight the troll tommorow"
Qiviel:"The tracks are clear enough and we have light enough to follow them."
Malied:"let us move quickly then, I do not relish the thought of remaining in the swamp any longer than needed
Chris T.:"I agree with Qiviel. Let's get this done."
Erasmus:"Indeed, let's press on. If we need light to fight, we have the means."
Geoff:"Alright. Let's go."
Simon N. (GM):GM: It's dim light now so Erasmus would have disad tracking unless you have Bright light. Syrus could track normally but it would need somene with darkvision & Survival to Help him.
Kenny - Syrus:"Who's helping meeeee!!"
Qiviel:Q's got channel divinity
Simon N. (GM):Base DC is now 12, usually higher but the swamp conditions are unusually good for tracking right now.
Qiviel:
Channel Divinity: Sacred Weapon
Class: Oath of Devotion
When you take this oath at 3rd level, you gain the following two Channel Divinity options.
As an action, you can imbue one weapon that you are holding with positive energy, using your Channel Divinity. For 1 minute, you add your Charisma modifier to attack rolls made with that weapon (with a minimum bonus of +1). The weapon also emits bright light in a 20-foot radius and dim light 20 feet beyond that. If the weapon is not already magical, it becomes magical for the duration.
You can end this effect on your turn as part of any other action. If you are no longer holding or carrying this weapon, or if you fall unconscious, this effect ends.

Erasmus:"I'm happy to have light, I don't know what benefit we gain from stumbling around in the dark. Just keep your heads on the swivel so we don't get ambushed."
Simon N. (GM):That only lasts a minute Q

Simon N. (GM):You are only 4 miles from Egilmont

Geoff:Norrin will keep the gold bracelet to give to Barbara. After washing the troll goop from it first.
Simon N. (GM):no sign of dwarf bones
Chris T.:thanks
Strohm of Leth (Muiz):it will take two hours to arrive the late lord Radney manor so we better hurry if we want sleep
Malied:"might be a different Mirna?"
Chris T.:"Worth asking her, don't you think?"
Malied:"ofc
Chris T.:"There is trouble at the mithril mine, south of her steading. Perhaps we could kill two birds with one stone?"
Erasmus:"We should check with Lady Daetha if she knows a Mirna, too."
Chris T.:"Good idea."
Strohm of Leth (Muiz):"you okay we help her Fraener i thought you would want to raid the dawrf forges again?"
Malied:OOC Unless it something magical I'm mostly need coin for the ungodly expensive spell scribing -.-
Simon N. (GM):That night you return to Egilmont Manor, where Lady Daetha is saddened but unsurprised to learn of her husband's death. "sob Y-your swift action and courage avenged him, and ensured no more will perish to the troll. I am grateful."
Strohm of Leth (Muiz):"it is unfortunate we couldnt save the children as well"
Kenny - Syrus:(OOC I need to go now, and Tim has control over Syrus again - looking forward to next week when I can hopefully stay the whole session! 'Night!)
Geoff:"I mourn your loss, my lady, but please rest assured you always have friends at D'Ashe Manor."

Malied:Night mate
Geoff:Good night, Kenny!
Erasmus:Nite bud.
Chris T.:G'night Kenny! Watch the vampires don't bite!
Malied:Malied will carefully ask about a woman named Mirna
Simon N. (GM):Daetha: "There was a knight of Ostel, Sir Hugo, who led his men into the marsh two months ago in search of the troll. He did not return - he wore a locket like that."
Strohm of Leth (Muiz):"oSTEL WHERE IS THAT?"
Simon N. (GM):Daetha smiles at Norrin. "Thank you, and please convey my warm regards to Lady Barbara. We may have different Dukes, but we are all Damaran and should be friends."
Geoff:"Thank you, my lady. I will do that."
Simon N. (GM):Ostel is the Barony east of Carmathan Duchy where you are right now
Malied:"hmm, that helps a great deal, atleast we know where to look for her now, atleast it might give her some peace knowing what happened"
Chris T.:(Notsure Muiz)
Malied:"atleast she'll know why he has not returned"
Strohm of Leth (Muiz):"so near grimstead?"
Chris T.:(I found the mithril mine having the trouble though)
Simon N. (GM):You are currently in Egilmont, in the Barony of Grimstead in the Duchy of Carmathan in the kingdom of Damara :)
Strohm of Leth (Muiz):"oh Ostel is very far away multiple days maybe weeks for us to get their"
Simon N. (GM):about 60-70 miles to Ostel from here
Erasmus:"I thought you were looking to settle down, Strohm?"
Simon N. (GM):Daetha: "I believe Sir Hugo came from a manor near Karvolia, near the Ostel border with Carmathan - you could enquire there?"
Strohm of Leth (Muiz):"of course but to return this locket to a fair maiden i will go to any lenghts"
Simon N. (GM):Karvolia is a small market town or large village in Ostel.
Strohm of Leth (Muiz):ooc noted
Erasmus:"Of that, there is no doubt, Strohm. I feel we should return to Khundrakar so that Fraener may complete his current quest. We can deal with mines later."
Simon N. (GM):many legends of vampires, werewolves, ghosts & such
Chris T.:"I fear I have another favour toaskof you my friends. But one that may pay dividends..."
Strohm of Leth (Muiz):"Lady Daetha can we stay at your home for tonight let us rest and ecuperate before we at dawn tommorow"
Simon N. (GM):GM: You rest comfortably overnight at the manor. Daetha has a servant bring Norrin (assumed to be your leader) the advertised reward of 300gp for slaying the Troll.
Erasmus:"What is it, Fraener?"
Strohm of Leth (Muiz):Strohm spends a short rest
Chris T.:"Flint Rockwood. the mithril miner is under attack from Orcs and a demon... Ifwe can save him and his mine we may be rewarded in Mithril, which, when we recapture the Halls,I can forge into magicalitems forus.."
Strohm of Leth (Muiz):

HIT DICE (D10+2)
Geoff:Norrin will add the 300 gp reward to the loot found in the troll's nest, to be split evenly later on.
Chris T.:"It is only a day or two out of our way.."
Strohm of Leth (Muiz):"im oksy in getting rid of Orcs and Demons"
Erasmus:"I'm always happy to deal with orcs. Demons, on the other hand..."
Qiviel:(I may wander off before we get into the next bit - so I don't end up staying up super late)
Malied:"I'm in"
Chris T.:"A demon, some minor fiend..." He adds hopefully
Geoff:Norrin nods to Fraener. "I'm in."
Chris T.:"Rockwood would be a fine ally to have."
Strohm of Leth (Muiz):"where is thisRockwood?"
Chris T.:"We could break the journey at Dwafstead?" Fraener is a bit smitten by the lovely Lady Mirna
Qiviel:"I am happy to assist where we are of most help," Q says. "Orcs, demons, or otherwise."
Chris T.:about 2 days travel/60 miles
Strohm of Leth (Muiz):"oh i see another dwarf settlement at least we dont have an half orc preventing us from staying in town"
Simon N. (GM):LOL
Chris T.::D
Geoff:lol
Erasmus:Erasmus frowns at the mention of Ted.
Chris T.:(Of courseif you have something else linned up for us, Simon...)
Simon N. (GM):This is a sandbox game :)
Chris T.::)
Strohm of Leth (Muiz):"many treasure have we lost to that rougish half orc"
Erasmus:"Indeed."
Geoff:"I'm still considering putting out a warrant for his arrest," Norrin says sourly.
Simon N. (GM):Let me know what you're doing - of course there are folk in D'Ashe Manor worriedly awaiting your return.
Geoff:We could to to Dwarfstead and have them take word to D'Ashe about what we're doing.
Strohm of Leth (Muiz):"so to Rock wood or we report back to Lady D'Ashe?"
Simon N. (GM):If you are still below full hp you can have back 1 hp/level for overnight rest Strohm
Chris T.:Fraener agrees with Norrin.
Erasmus:"Trvel will be quicker by road. We could go back to the manor today, then to Dwarfstead on the morrow."
Malied:"Makes sense]
Chris T.:ooc-or doit over three days, sure.
Simon N. (GM):You could be at D'Ashe for lunch & Dwarfstead for dinner easily :)
Chris T.::)
Geoff:Yes, let's do that.
Chris T.:Soundsgood
Strohm of Leth (Muiz):its okay i recovered from the short rest
Simon N. (GM):rem those are 2 mile hexes & you have horses
Chris T.:(ah!I wascounting as5milke hexes)
Simon N. (GM):GM: You bid farewell to Lady Daetha after breakfast & head west...
Chris T.:"Lady Mirna is a gem among women. A river to her people and a great beauty too!"
Erasmus:"Let's do that. We will have to rely on your relationship with the leader of Dwarfstead to allow us to rest overnight there. Do you think she would be amenable?"
Chris T.:"I am sure youwill all like her."
Geoff:"Methinks the dwarf is in love..."
Simon N. (GM):The road is empty - few travellers these days, esp w a dragon about - and you reach the Manor before noon.
Chris T.:"Bah! Norrin, you jest?! Why the likes of Lady Mirna would not look at an old anvil like me!" He blushes below his beard
Simon N. (GM):Akemi & Geradile are v happy to see Strohm :) - Barbara smiles with relief as Norrin rides in through the front gate
Barbara D'Ashe:"Welcome back, everyone! You must tell me what happened!"
Erasmus:Erasmus nudges Fraener and gestures toward Jyrdani. He shrugs.
Geoff:Norrin will tell Barbara about the events in the swamp and the unfortunate passing of Sir Rodney. He will give her the gold bracelet as a gift.
Barbara D'Ashe:looks at it "It's beautiful!" kisses Norrin
Malied:A gift from a troll nest that belonged to a now dead person...
Geoff:"Hey! I fought hard for that!"
Barbara D'Ashe:"That is sad, Sir Rodney's death. He was a great warrior once. Now Lady Daetha rules alone - I think Baron Solkar will soon rule there, for he is married to her last daughter."
Geoff:"I have pledged our friendship to her," Norrin says. "There may be times that we may need to rely upon each other."
Barbara D'Ashe:Barbara nods. "That was the right thing to do. We must make the best of things."
Erasmus:Erasmus shares out the coin, leaving the remaining trinkets in a pouch in his room to be dealt with once there is time.
Chris T.:"Thank you, Erasmus"
Strohm of Leth (Muiz):"Thank you Eramus"
Geoff:OOC: Did you include the 300 gp reward from Daetha?
Erasmus:Yup. 520/8
Barbara D'Ashe:After lunch (& for Strohm a quick visit to his ladies) you can head south to Dwarfstead.
Qiviel:Q nods her thanks to Erasmus for sharing it out
Chris T.:"We should ask Lady Mirna about the locket, perhaps?"
Simon N. (GM):The sun still shines bright but a cold wind is blowing down from the snowcapped slopes of Fang Mountain to the west, a presage of the winter to come.
Malied:"Indeed"
Erasmus:Erasmus shivers in the cold wind. "I wonder if that dragon has anything to do with the chill."
Chris T.:"Fang Mountain... I fear we will be there before too long.."
Strohm of Leth (Muiz):"again i doubt Lady Mirna the 'Dwarf' would know Mirna the 'Human' who lives somewhere in further north"
Simon N. (GM):Even giving your mounts an easy time, the 8 miles south to Dwarfstead across heath & woodlands passes swiftly enough and you reach Dwarfstead that afternoon, a fortified hamlet of some 200 or so dwarf farmers, shepherds - and warriors.
Chris T.:F shrugs. (It is a good reason to visit, along with news that we go to rescue Flint.)
Simon N. (GM):Dwarves tilling the wheat fields by the steading pause to watch your approach. A horn blows and the gates swing open, giving you admittance.
Geoff:"We'll follow your lead, Fraener."
Simon N. (GM):Mirna is on the village green, training a squadron of younger warriors, of both sexes.
Chris T.:Fraener is delighted to seeher again so soon. He will introduce the brave band of which they talked on his last visit. He will also tell of making good on the promise that he would help, Flint. Then at a convenient time mention the locket
Malied:Malied shows her the locket
Chris T.:Her hairlike burnished copper bright!
Malied:Her hair IS Copper :P
Chris T.:"I would ask foryour hospitality once more before we leave in the morning for Flint's mine."
Simon N. (GM):The two Mirnas do seem to have similar hair.
Malied:will be AFK in a few to gtake in tak away
Chris T.:"And of course will be happy to pay for any out of pocket expenses this may cost you."
Chris T.:Fraener beams widely at this generous gesture. He so wants his friends to like her.
Strohm of Leth (Muiz):"well were here to help Rockwood getting rid of orcs and demosn"
Erasmus:"Your hospitality is most gracious, Lady Mirna."
Chris T.:and for her to like them..
Simon N. (GM):You are ushered to guest quarters (1 male room 1 female) to freshen up before dinner.
Chris T.:"The lamb here is divine!"
Jyrdani of Jiyyd:to Qiviel: "Tomorrow we go hunt a demon - that's your thing, right?"
Erasmus:Erasmus gets cleaned up, then waits near thewomen's room for Jyrdani. When she emerges, he gives her a kiss and they walk to the hall arm in arm.
Chris T.:Fraener polishes his ancestral armour until it gleams.
Qiviel:"Anything not aligned with the holy aspects should be dealt with if it causes harm to the innocent, but you would say undead is more my thing, although I am still improving my skills," she grins to Jyrdani
Chris T.:Combing and platting his beard and sparse hair. Arranging them to best effect. Though this is something akin to polishing a turd, he reflects sadly.
Qiviel:"I am finding that anything that harms those under my protection that my sword can bite falls under my purview."
Simon N. (GM):Jyrdani grins back at Qiviel. "May be time to expand your repertoire, milady." Over a good dinner in the great hall of Mirna's longhouse you eat well and listen to the dwarves talk of sheep, sowing & planting, building in wood and stone - and of the darkness that threatens these lands.
Jyrdani of Jiyyd:"That sounds fair. I guess you could say anything I can hack the arms off is 'my thing'!"
Geoff:As a representative of D'Ashe Manor, Norrin will make a point of speaking with Mirna, as a way of opening up a dialogue between Dwarfstead and D'Ashe regarding trade, etc. He will likewise pledge their friendship to the dwarves.
Qiviel:Q laughs softly. "Indeed. A glorious sight we make on a battlefield then."
Strohm of Leth (Muiz):Strohm looks for any human maids that has caught his attention
Qiviel:(sorry guys, I'm going to wrap up here since, please move Q around as you need her :) )
Malied:I'll drive her!
Jyrdani of Jiyyd:Night Keelia
Geoff:"You honour me, Lady Mirna," Norrin replies, bowing.
Chris T.:G'night Keelia, stay safe :)
Qiviel:(have a great rest of the game - night!)
Strohm of Leth (Muiz):see ya Next week Keelia
Geoff:Good night, Keelia!
Simon N. (GM):Dwarfstead appears to be 100% dwarf, sadly for Strohm.
Strohm of Leth (Muiz):sigh
Malied:I though you said that Mirna was training a mixed group?
Jyrdani of Jiyyd:Male/female
Strohm of Leth (Muiz):sippin on his Dwarven drink
Simon N. (GM):yup
Malied:Oooo, right
Simon N. (GM):male dwarves & female dwarves
Chris T.:And this is a most wholesome steading. Not some knocking shop! :D
Strohm of Leth (Muiz):what time is it now?
Simon N. (GM):Mirna is too diplomatic to say anything about what D'Ashe Manor has become, but Fraener & others w passive Insight 13+ can tell she's not wholly approving.
Chris T.:"But you mentioned he was beset by a demon and it's Orc thralls?"
Strohm of Leth (Muiz):Strohm will quietly eat his dinner
Jyrdani of Jiyyd:Erasmus pauses at the mention of his old home.
Chris T.:"My friends and I will rid the Rockwoodmine of this menace."
Strohm of Leth (Muiz):looking at the map "do we have to pass Argus and Talhanen?"
Chris T.:""Will we be able to cross the river at Silver Vale?"
Strohm of Leth (Muiz):"oh never mind see the road now"
Strohm of Leth (Muiz):"just notice the thin road
Chris T.:"I could not do this alone. Once more the brave and good souls that I call friends have agreed toi help."
Chris T.:Fraener tries not to blush under her fair gaze.
Erasmus:"If I may? Perhaps we should all get an early night. We can set off at first light."
Chris T.:(OOC the river flowing through Silver Vale will be a super highway to the south for goods manufactured Khundraker...)
Simon N. (GM):GM: You retire for the night. Most of you spend a rather uncomfortable night on hard dwarf beds, though Fraener has the best sleep in ages & it reminds Erasmus of the Monastery floor he slept on as a Novice, not that long ago.
Chris T.:(Indeed the whole area betwixt the White Worm and the Silver Vale willneed attention if it is to come under the protection of Khundrakar. :) )
Erasmus:Erasmus is surprisingly comfortable, even if he does miss the soft down of his bed at the manor.
Simon N. (GM):Next morning you rise, dine on heavy dwarf porridge.
Strohm of Leth (Muiz):this might be the last night Strohm stays in Dwarfsead XD
Geoff:Norrin curses the bed; he was used to such accommodatons when he was a caravan guard, but spending his nights in a soft bed beside Barbara has made him soft.
Jyrdani of Jiyyd:kisses Erasmus "I think those dwarf beds are harder than the stony ground itself!"
Chris T.:Fraener is all smiles.A comfortable bed and heartybreakfast. "Porridge with rocks in, just likemother used to make."
Erasmus:"When we get back to the manor, remind me to give you a nice massage. It does wonders for morning aches!"
Strohm of Leth (Muiz):ooc are the shepperds dwarves too?
Simon N. (GM):After breakfast you prepare to leave - you should be ok to take the horses, indeed they should get you across Silver Stream without getting your bottom halves (Fraener bottom 3/4s) wet.
Strohm of Leth (Muiz):ooc where is beverly and geradile from?
Chris T.:"Isn't she wonderful? Virtue and beauty in equal measure. Fierce as a lioness too, I'll warrant."
Simon N. (GM):Geradile & Beverly are from a human farmstead NW of Dwarfstead
Strohm of Leth (Muiz):"this dwarf settlement is really quaint not like the songs or tales i heard"
Erasmus:"Haha. It is one thing to be smitten, my pious friend, but be sure to keep your head in the game during combat." Erasmus looks over at Jyrdani. "I can't recall the number of times I've nearly died because I was distracted."
Jyrdani of Jiyyd:smiles at Fraener "She certainly swings a maul well!"
Chris T.:Jyrdani understands!
Geoff:"She has the best interests of her people in mind, that's for sure. And that's admirable," Norrin says, not sure what to make of her.
Jyrdani of Jiyyd:"She must have a hundred warriors here - they could do a lot... not just farm sheep."
Chris T.:"Now lets kill some Orcs and their pet ape"
Strohm of Leth (Muiz):"here here"
Erasmus:"I fear it may be the other way around."
Simon N. (GM):GM: You bid farewell to Dwarfstead. Riding south you soon reach the western trail.
Chris T.:Check out the trees for lurking Ape-Demons
Simon N. (GM):Do you follow Mirna's advice re crossing to the west bank then south?
Erasmus:Follow the directions we were given.
Strohm of Leth (Muiz)::"better follow the madm dwarf advice"
Chris T.:Follow Mirna's advice.. yes,yes..
Geoff:Yes
Simon N. (GM):GM: Your horses & pony ford the stream to the far bank. There is a faint trail, but the land here is clearly wild and unsettled even by the standards of the borderlands.
Chris T.:"We should call upon Rockwood, see how the land lays."
Simon N. (GM):You travel 4 miles south, at a slower pace as the faint track winds along the riverbank.
Chris T.:"Flint Rockwood's mine must be close."
Erasmus:Aye.
Strohm of Leth (Muiz):"lead the way"
Chris T.:F does so. Probably better the miners see a dwarf first than a heavilyarmed group of humans etc?
Geoff:"Yes. And a human would still be better than a half-orc."
Chris T.:F makes sure the Hammer and Anvil sybolof Moradin is clearlyvisible on his shield
Simon N. (GM):You head up the trail...
Jyrdani of Jiyyd:"It's quiet... too quiet."
Erasmus:OOC Aww! Look at the squirrels and birds!!
Jyrdani of Jiyyd:Can you place your tokens on the trail below the little stream thanks :)
Strohm of Leth (Muiz):ooc indeed
Chris T.:"FLINT! FLINT ROCKWOOD?!"
Jyrdani of Jiyyd:horses are in your Journal
Simon N. (GM):most of you are on riding horses BTW :) - Norrin has Gurzun's warhorse
Malied:Q has a speacial one i think but its not on my list
