City of Alltrade, 17 Summerblade 496
RY
The bold adventurers three:
Fletch, Gregicus and Grendig arrived by boat to the pearl of commerce, Alltrade. A missive, offering to hire them for
adventure, had been sent to them by the ancient sage Koar the Blind. Upon reaching Alltrade the three were
quickly directed to Koar’s estate and welcomed with great hospitatlity.City of Alltrade and surroundings |
Koar wanted to retrieve weapons meant to be used against the Ravening, weapons that lay unbloodied during the Exodus. Specifically, Koar was interested in the weaponworks of one Durgeddin the Black a dwarven smith, once seduced by the Ravening who later repented. Durgeddin’s penance was the fabrication of mystical blades meant to destroy the servants of the Ravening. In essence,
Koar wanted Fletch, Gregicus
and Grendig to explorer Durgeddin’s fallen mountain fortress, Khundrukar, the
Stonetooth over the ruins of Glinder.
The kindly sage dispatched them with a scrying crystal should they need
his assistance.
The
three spent the rest of the day securing provisions, mounts and magical
items. The local priest of Norbask’Kun,
Sister Alonsa, supplied them with several healing potions. They also visited Vistain’s Shoppe of
the Wonderous where they acquired a floating glow rod and a sentient silk
line. After finishing their
provisioning, they returned to Koar’s estate and spent the night.

The brave explorers rode
west in the pleasant summer morning.
The day was mostly uneventful except for a brief encounter with a green-eyed
tiger the size of a water buffalo.
Fletch managed to startle the tiger with a clever illusion. That would have been the end of it
except for the growl that sounded like “vvveeerrryyy fffuuunnnyy”. That night Grendig spotted two great green orbs—watching and
waiting in the rainy darkness.
