== Description ==
This village is located about a day’s travel north. It’s not up inside of the mountain range but located in a valley farther into the mountains. It is not an official settlement of Gadena and though it has a mayor, they are under the control of Illeridge.

== Persons of Interest ==
Kara Firenni - mayor and gardener

Yaeda Firenni - Kara's sister and victim of The Rote Communion and Viallis Fane

Old Fargo - owner of The Bulging Cauldron

Young Fargo - Old Fargo's son and victim of The Rote Communion and Viallis Fane

Jomo - a messenger sent to Illeridge who hasn't returned

== 839 AT ==
After The Fortune Bringers interrupted Viallis Fane's ritual, changes in the town can be seen.
Faerl has disappeared from Greenfast, his house sitting empty. Same with Lord Fane's house. Yaeda Firenni returned to live with her sister. Young Fargo returned to live with his father, Fargo, and is a commensurately chastened individual. He loves horses and the mayor gave him the go ahead to work on transforming Viallis' homestead into a paddock and stables to train horses.

Sir Vecken returned the captives to Greenfast safely, and then he himself, returned to [[Illeridge]].

The town is currently dealing an influx of aberrations in the area around it.

His hair, what once seems to have been black, has started to gray and lose it's luster, hanging limply down.

== Description ==
Londeithel, located in the [[Middledark]], in a cavern that the drow refer to as [[Dromchla]] ("refuge"), exists far from the secluded city of [[Aixlintar]] within a cluster of drow, dueregar cities, and more small civilizations within the [[The Underdark|Underdark]], located beneath the [[Varrenmar Mountains]] and spreading out in all direction from that center point. Many of the civilizations that were part of this section of [[The Underdark]], existed within and under the domain of the beholder, Renekor, whom was dubbed The Watcher, which was a tame name for what he was. He allowed them to exist as long as they gave him whatever he wanted, whenever he asked for it. Due to the existence of [[Chanth Arint]], the temperature in Dromchla is much higher than most places in the [[The Underdark|Underdark]].

The city of Londeithel sits on the ground of a massive cavern with ceilings so many miles high that they're out of view. Where stalagmites and stalactites meet within this cavern, throughout this city, a means of travel has been built. Small shops and cafes exist within the interior of the meeting joint of these massive rock growth and connecting them all, is a rope and wire bridge. It can't be used to transport large or heavy things, but foot traffic can easily cross. It allows quicker passage to certain districts of the city. It is called [[The Hangwire]]. The city is lighted with purple, green and white lights every so often though the majority of it is not lit because its denizens are not in need of light to see. [[The Vermillion Tributary]] runs through the city, called so because of the tint of red that it has. It's hot and smokes and any boats that glide down it have to be lined with metal.

==== '''''Upper Houses''''' ====
House Duskvigor

House Halloween

House Daevion’lyr

House T’abar

House Mlezzal

=== '''''Lower Houses''''' ===
House Ravenspark

House Telazza

House Ilallar

==Government==
The society was still built in a structure of hierarchy, but it was slightly different. The upper houses were in charge while the lower houses served them. They are not a religious functioning society, many of the drow here are atheists. Their history was [[The Shadoweaver]] but their purpose was not to serve her. They have a [[High Council]], leftover from their history with [[The Shadoweaver]] but not gendered and with no connection. They are currently mostly concerned with making sure that they give enough to Renekor and to Vylastras so that their continued existence is secure. Londeithel used to be ruled by a dragon queen who's bones can be seen lying in a constant vigil, curled around the city. She was killed by Vylastras when Vylastras was sent into hiding after The War of the Last Dragon.

There is conflict amongst the houses as there always is with nobility. The lower houses vying for higher positions, the upper houses steadfastly holding onto their wealth and status. Many of them use [[The Infinite Children]] for political functions but they are a city that is overtly welcoming to refugees.

==== '''''Laws''''' ====
''Any individual discovered and/or convicted of crimes under local government jurisdiction are''

''subject to punishments meted out by the standards set for Londeithel by the High Council.''<blockquote>'''Theft:''' 25 - 30 days incarceration and/or fine of thrice the worth of the stolen goods

'''Forced Labor:''' 5-10 years of incarceration and a fine of 5,000gp

'''Ownership of another intelligent humanoid:''' 20-30 years incarceration and a fine of 7500 gp and/or execution

'''Trespassing:''' a fine of 235gp

'''Failure to pay taxes:''' 5 days incarceration and repossession of property equal to the amount owed

'''Damage to private property:''' 5-15 days incarceration or a fine of twice the worth of property destroyed.

'''Kidnapping:''' 90 days incarceration and/or a fine of 2,000gp

'''Arson:''' 10 days incarceration and fines covering the cost of repairs plus 375gp

'''Assault with intent to injure:''' 20-30 days incarceration and/or a fine of 340gp

'''Worship of The Shadoweaver:''' lifetime imprisonment and/or execution

'''Murder''': 6-20 years and/or a fine of 6,000gp, or execution</blockquote>

== Commerce ==
The slave trade has been abandoned here. There is free trade from the drow Londetheil to the surrounding communities such as the dueregar city of [[Giroluhm]] and [[Dar'salon]], a city of githyankis. They have an amicable relationship with the myconids of [[Psiolofyr]] as well.

=== [[Willen Wanderfoot]] ===
Badly injured when the villagers sent a posse to hunt down the wolves, Wanderfoot has been left badly damaged by his experiences – both mentally and physically. He is currently laid up in a room across from the Shepherd’s Hook, where he is regularly attended by a cleric.

The room is small and sparse though there are fresh flowers on a table by the window. The halfling lies in the bed, white-faced and soaked in his own sweat. His left arm is bandaged and his right leg.
He explains that when the posse was attacked, he was bitten badly and was trampled as the other men fled. His memories are hazy as he drifted in and out of consciousness, but he remembers gruff voices arguing in the darkness and a powerful grip on his ankle.
He hesitantly confesses that the wolves were talking, arguing fiercely over whether they should eat him or not. Wanderfoot then breaks down in tears and refuses to say anything more.

=== The Meeting ===
Exiting Wanderfoot’s room, the party can see that the bar has quieted down. You see the people you met the day before, Yana, Rumen, Gilette is by the door. There are a couple figures standing up amidst the crowd. There is a soldier, 3 humans, and a halfling.
[[Tyson Clanton]]. First and foremost, his job is to protect the people of [[Olnfield]]. Though he had commands to follow from the capital city of [[Gadena]], there isn’t much that needs focused on in the small village. He has the freedom to work with [[Saima Kuusk]] and the other heads to create peace.**

Justicar [[Saima Kuusk]] is well respected by the village. She works closely with the faction of [[The Reserves|The Peace Reserve]] stationed in [[Olnfield]] to uphold the laws of [[The Kingdom of Gadena]] while also making sure that her citizens are taken care of.

[[Hugo Axelstrom]], [[Iris Bourne]], [[Tobias Renwald]]

As the party re-enters, they can hear raised voices, and when they enter, the halfling is arguing with one of the human women about whether the village should stop exporting its grain and other food while the crisis with the wolves remains unresolved.

Hugo reacts angrily to any interruption but warms to the party if they identify themselves. If the party has not come to the village to help with the wolves, Saima will try to persuade them to take the job, offering 500gp reward, free lodgings and other small favors.

The small group can provide detailed information about the wolf attacks, as well as the rumors known to the common folk.** The wolves have been driving people out of farms and outlying hamlets, taking entire herds of sheep as well as cattle, pigs and chickens. They have been acting in a way that is unusually effective, such as ambushing shepherds as they move their flocks, and opening gates and pulling down fences. They only seem to be after the sheep. Cattle, horses, and chickens have so far been safe and left unharmed and untouched.

There have always been wolves in the woods, but in the space of three months they have gone from a nuisance to a major threat. People are abandoning farms out of ear, leaving the village to either stop exporting the crops that have already been harvested and risk bankruptcy, or go hungry.

A posse of people was organized to hunt down the wolves, but they were attacked in the woods and driven back. Tobias will speak up, mentioning that his twin brother who was dabbling with sorcery, Alexi, went missing around the same time the attacks began, forcing them to turn to professional adventurers for aid.

They believe that the wolves live in the woods to the west of town but are not sure. Hugo introduces himself officially and say that he has been working here for the best part of forty years and is happy to answer questions on the local government and provide general support for the party.

Iris steps forward and explains that the wolves haven’t been a direct problem to any of the fishermen, but hurting the shepherds, hurts them in turn.

Tyson guided you all to Tobias’ house where you found notebooks filled with arcane scribblings and experimentations. Felrick transferred the scent of one of the books to a rock, which Anise then used to help track.

=== [[Barnall Woods]] ===
Eventually, the party should end up making a trek into the woods, which are thick and clogged with undergrowth. The smell of earth and moss fills the air and the passage of small animals creates a constant hustle in the bushes. Occasionally, the howl of a lone wolf echoes eerily from the north.

Finding the parting in the woods takes approximately two hours at a walking pace.

After an hour or so of travel through the dense undergrowth of the southernmost reaches of the Barnall Woods, the party begins to see sprinkles of blood as if an injured animal had traveled through here or was dragged through.

Traveling through the forest the party wandered across the path of a Giant Snake and swiftly killed it. They avoided a rampaging and hurt owlbear, and found their way to a clearing, through which you could see wolves, doing strangely human activities, outside of a cave.

From the treeline, it is possible to see a cave entrance roughly 10ft wide and 10ft tall at its highest point, set into a low cliff of grey stone. A thin plume of smoke appears to be coming from a point on the hill above the cliff, maybe 30 ft back from the cave entrance.

=== Alexi's Wolves' Cave ===
Milling around the area are six wolves. Some are sat around the fire, some are seemingly working on improving the fence, and some are in the process of tearing a sheep carcass apart. Many of the wolves appear to be wearing strips of brightly-colored cloth or other decorations tied about limbs or their necks.

The entire scene seems remarkably peaceful and organized for a wolf den. The plume of smoke is coming from a hole in the cave ceiling. It is roughly 30 ft back from the cave entrance and is just about big enough for a small creature to squeeze through.

The hole opens into the far-right cave chamber and is 15ft off the ground, directly above the fire. You can hear two wolves having an argument over the future of the pack. Both wolves are dark grey. One’s eyes glow with a constant orange flame and thin stripes of deep red run across her body. The other’s eyes pulse with a blue crackling light.

One (Smoke), is angrily ranting about the appearance of the adventuring party and that it proves they need to be more aggressive. She believes they should start killing more humans, halflings, and dwarves in a bid to speed up their retreat from the area.

The other (Beacon) however, argues in extremely soft tones that it means they should do the exact opposite. He wants to conduct a few more small-scale raids and then disappear from the area, moving further into the wilderness.

The argument will last for some time before the pair move out of the main cave complex.

The least stealthy of the party stayed back, but unfortunately, Brenri, not paying close enough attention, tripped a wire at the edge of the forest, sending alarms clanking and alerting the wolves to their presence. Battle ensued. At one point, one of the alphas wanted a ceasefire to talk and discuss. The other was not as on board and halfway through the discussion, turned on her partner, badly injuring him. The party took up the fight once more, slaying her.

The alpha was left to speak with the adventurers, unsatisfied that they had killed those of his pack, but understanding. A deal was struck, persuading them that their secret of gained intelligence would be kept if they were to pack up and leave that place. He directed the group to Alexi’s grave and promised to be gone within the day.

=== Back in Olnfield ===
The party returned to [[Olnfield]], told [[Saima Kuusk|Saima]] that all the wolves were disposed of and informed her that Alexi was dead.

After a long day, many of the party grabbed some of homemade cider from Leanor and started in on a night’s revelry. Gaotha, Felrick, and Caukdim left to go outside and sit with Anise, genially pouring one out in remembrance of Alexi.

But, the possibly calm night was ruined by a loud banging as a door to one of the buildings down the path was violently shoved open and you saw a robed figured pushed out, tumbling to the ground. After him walked, Brienne, holding a sword to the figure’s throat. “I thought I told you to leave this place.”

==Events==

=== [[Olnfield]] ===
A small team is sent by [[Saima Kuusk]] to track down the wolves because she did not believe the party's claims.. They follow their trail and find them. [[Gilette Selander]] comes back, the entire side of her face burned from getting hit with lightning breath. There are a couple others who are battered and bruised but they managed to avoid the worst of it. There were only three full grown wolves left and the pups. They did not kill the pups but brought them back to town.

A group of knights and a messenger arrive on horseback from [[Gadena]]. They announce that the royal wedding will be happening and that they are going to need a large output from [[The Triangle]]. There is an outcry: they barely have enough to feed themselves. The messenger supplants that if they don’t have the stores by the time its sent for, taxes will be raised instead to help pay for it.

[[Saima Kuusk]] tries to explain the situation; they asked for aid from the capital and none was sent. The messenger explains that he doesn’t have any say in the matter, was only meant to deliver the message.

=== [[Landow]] ===
[[Juniper Harvey]]'s family are farm hands on the Russo farm in [[Landow]]. It is mostly a grain farm but does have a few chickens. They live in [[Landow]]. His sister, [[Meraud Harvey|Meraud]] is a town guard.

He is only about seven now, but when he was younger, his magic had a mind of its own. He burnt down a barn and a swath of planted land in about a 30ft radius circle crumbled and died, and not so extreme but to everyone’s dismay, for two days, everyone he talked to turned violet. The effect dissipated on its own.

When the healers weren’t much help, Alexi, being the only other magic user known in [[The Triangle]] came to aid. He seemed to be the only one who was able to calm the child and help Juniper gain control over these outbursts of the arcane.

His family does not know that Alexi had moved forward and was starting to actually teach [[Juniper Harvey|Juniper]].

For years the boy had been misunderstood and no one knew how to help him; learning to use his magic could have bad results. So, Alexi misled him slightly. [[Juniper Harvey|Juniper]] believes that his magic only works when he has those slips of paper. Giving that one up to Alexi, means that he doesn’t think he can do the flame anymore.

=== [[Tobias Renwald]]'s House ===
Tobias opens the door just a crack. His hair is tousled, and he looks like he hasn’t gotten much sleep. Through the crack you can see that the place looks like a mess.

Inside, papers are strewn all over, notebooks lying open, displayed for all. Tobias has been going through Alexi’s notes, realizing his shorthand is the language in which they communicated when they were younger. It’s harder to translate because twin speak never had an actual correlation to everything and they never wrote it down.

''“It took me a while to realize what this was because I’ve never seen a language like this, but then I started noticing a pattern. It think it’s the language we came up with as kids but we never wrote it down. And even if we had, it was barely translatable to halfling let alone common.”''

Tobias is creating a key to the cipher but its slow going because he’s forgotten much of it as they hadn’t talked this way for years. He translates what he can remember into halfling. Much of it, though able to be immediately transcribed into another language doesn’t make much sense. It is past Tobias’ knowledge and doesn’t look like any spells he’s come upon before. These are Alexi’s inventions.

While Tobias was trained in the healing arts, Alexi was born with an innate magic and it had been clear to them both that Juniper had been as well. Alexi was not experimenting on the boy, but he was moving very slowly in his teaching.

With some persuading, Tobias will tell the party that Juniper is not the only child. There are many. There is something in the land that affects them at birth.

=== Night of Prophecy ===
The sun sets and the night darkens. There’s a sense of anticipation flowing through the group as you wait. And wait and wait. The night sky is completely void of clouds, the stars dazzling. [[Ustruel]] is bright in the sky, its mirror, [[Lunis]], dimmer.

There is a loud roar, not a sound anyone has ever heard before. You glance up and there a silhouette in the sky, something large and dark. It disappears into the night and then returns. It makes the rounds a few times. And then it dips into a dive over [[Woolhope]], the moonlight glinting off its back reflects glistening purple scales. It roars again and out of its mouth shoots a blistering stream of fire. The grass catches, flames roaring up as it soars up again. It dips again, this time catching the thatched tops of houses. It lets out another terrifying roar and disappears into the night.

In the wake the villagers are trying to stop the blaze. Its made difficult by the fact that there are 3 fire elementals in the shape of small dragons… playing??? They seem almost childish in how they act, but they are still doing a lot of damage.

=== The Triangle ===
Gaotha finishes healing JoJo under bridge, the magic flowing from them stops. And all of a sudden it feels like their entire chest has been ripped asunder. Just a line from Gaotha's chest to shoulder feels like the skin has been violently torn.

The cultist campsite is mostly hidden. There are the remains of a fire, smoldering slightly. There are three figures, all sleeping and the party learns they are the lowest ranking member of [[The Cult of the Dragon|The Cult]].

=== Olnfield ===
[[Saima Kuusk]] gathers a group the next day to send into the forest to find Alexi’s body. It is field guards of the Peace Reserve and Tobias will want to go. They will find the dead bodies of the wolves but when they search the inside of the cave and find it stripped bear, that will raise questions.

[[Tobias Renwald]] will hold a funeral for his brother. There is a fenced in area used as a cemetery for all of the towns. It is in the centermost section so that every can reach it. Saima, Tyson, Hugo, and Iris attend in support. There’s a smattering of people but its not a huge crowd.

=== The Cemetary ===
There is a young boy there, alone, [[Juniper Harvey]]. He has short, cropped black hair. He’s wearing an unassuming pair of pants and a shirt; he fits in with everyone else. He looks like a simple farm boy. Narrow eyes are blinking back tears but a few escape, running down his cheek.
[[Tobias Renwald]]: ''"I know what many of you and the others think about Alexi, and I don’t begrudge you that. He was strange and weird and all of those things you say he was, but it was never a bad man. He might’ve got carried away at times, but it was all in the passion of his work. I’m starting to realize that even I wasn’t privy to that work, whether that was because he didn’t think I would understand, which I probably wouldn’t, or because I never bothered to show interest… But, he was still my brother. And losing someone that you have spent the entirety of your life with, side by side. From childhood to adulthood. Through everything. Maybe it would be easier if I gave up hope these last few months. I think there was a part of be that had given up. But I didn’t really know he was gone until everyone knew he was gone. So, it does feel sudden. And it feels unfair. And it feels unkind. Unkind because had had so much left to accomplish. Even though I don’t know what his work was for, I know he would’ve succeeded. He would’ve found the answers he’s been looking for. And the world would’ve been better for it. But now… well now, all I know if I loved him and I will miss him for the rest of my years."''

=== Olnfield ===
[[The Cult of the Dragon|The Cult]] have captured Jonesey to initiate into their fold. It was because he was of [[The Fellowship of Righteous Arms|The Fellowship]] and they thought it would be even more honoring to turn an enemy. He was completely whisked away in the night and is no longer in town.

Brienne thinks it was [[Voss Gabor]] since he seems to be a leader of at least a few of the other cult members. Inside the building is two others. One is tied to a chair, the other has been knocked unconscious.

The guards have just been trying to throw the ones making issues out of the town. But they haven’t forcibly removed the ones who have done nothing wrong.

[[Voss Gabor]] told them he didn’t take Jonesey but that they are waiting for something to occur.

[[Menora Boffin]] says that [[Brienne Fayleaf]] and Jonesey should not have been working together, [[Caukdim Aralan|Caukdim]] says they are family

* she stresses to [[Joren Jolandel|Jojo]] not to work with family and follow ''that'' [[The Fellowship of Righteous Arms|Fellowship]] guideline if he were to follow any

[[Saima Kuusk]] tells them that [[Voss Gabor|Voss]] was trying to make a deal offering protection for payment

The party attends [[Tobias Renwald]]'s brother's funeral

On the road to [[Woolhope]] the party runs into cultists and they mention a bone dragon. A fight ensues.

There have always been wolves in the woods, but in the space of three months they have gone from a nuisance to a major threat. People are abandoning farms out of ear, leaving the village to either stop exporting the crops that have already been harvested and risk bankruptcy, or go hungry.

A posse of people was organized to hunt down the wolves, but they were attacked in the woods and driven back. Tobias will speak up, mentioning that his twin brother who was dabbling with sorcery, Alexi, went missing around the same time the attacks began, forcing them to turn to professional adventurers for aid.

They believe that the wolves live in the woods to the west of town but are not sure. Hugo introduces himself officially and say that he has been working here for the best part of forty years and is happy to answer questions on the local government and provide general support for the party.

Iris steps forward and explains that the wolves haven’t been a direct problem to any of the fishermen, but hurting the shepherds, hurts them in turn.

Tyson guided you all to Tobias’ house where you found notebooks filled with arcane scribblings and experimentations. Felrick transferred the scent of one of the books to a rock, which Anise then used to help track.

=== [[Barnall Woods]] ===
Eventually, the party should end up making a trek into the woods, which are thick and clogged with undergrowth. The smell of earth and moss fills the air and the passage of small animals creates a constant hustle in the bushes. Occasionally, the howl of a lone wolf echoes eerily from the north.

Finding the parting in the woods takes approximately two hours at a walking pace.

After an hour or so of travel through the dense undergrowth of the southernmost reaches of the Barnall Woods, the party begins to see sprinkles of blood as if an injured animal had traveled through here or was dragged through.

Traveling through the forest the party wandered across the path of a Giant Snake and swiftly killed it. They avoided a rampaging and hurt owlbear, and found their way to a clearing, through which you could see wolves, doing strangely human activities, outside of a cave.

From the treeline, it is possible to see a cave entrance roughly 10ft wide and 10ft tall at its highest point, set into a low cliff of grey stone. A thin plume of smoke appears to be coming from a point on the hill above the cliff, maybe 30 ft back from the cave entrance.

=== Alexi's Wolves' Cave ===
Milling around the area are six wolves. Some are sat around the fire, some are seemingly working on improving the fence, and some are in the process of tearing a sheep carcass apart. Many of the wolves appear to be wearing strips of brightly-colored cloth or other decorations tied about limbs or their necks.

The entire scene seems remarkably peaceful and organized for a wolf den. The plume of smoke is coming from a hole in the cave ceiling. It is roughly 30 ft back from the cave entrance and is just about big enough for a small creature to squeeze through.

The hole opens into the far-right cave chamber and is 15ft off the ground, directly above the fire. You can hear two wolves having an argument over the future of the pack. Both wolves are dark grey. One’s eyes glow with a constant orange flame and thin stripes of deep red run across her body. The other’s eyes pulse with a blue crackling light.

One (Smoke), is angrily ranting about the appearance of the adventuring party and that it proves they need to be more aggressive. She believes they should start killing more humans, halflings, and dwarves in a bid to speed up their retreat from the area.

The other (Beacon) however, argues in extremely soft tones that it means they should do the exact opposite. He wants to conduct a few more small-scale raids and then disappear from the area, moving further into the wilderness.

The argument will last for some time before the pair move out of the main cave complex.

The least stealthy of the party stayed back, but unfortunately, Brenri, not paying close enough attention, tripped a wire at the edge of the forest, sending alarms clanking and alerting the wolves to their presence. Battle ensued At one point, one of the alphas wanted a ceasefire to talk and discuss. The other was not as on board and halfway through the discussion, turned on her partner, badly injuring him. The party took up the fight once more, slaying her.

The alpha was left to speak with the adventurers, unsatisfied that they had killed those of his pack, but understanding. A deal was struck, persuading them that their secret of gained intelligence would be kept if they were to pack up and leave that place. He directed the group to Alexi’s grave and promised to be gone within the day.

=== Back in Olnfield ===
The party returned to [[Olnfield]], told [[Saima Kuusk|Saima]] that all the wolves were disposed of and informed her that Alexi was dead.

After a long day, many of the party grabbed some of homemade cider from Leanor and started in on a night’s revelry. Gaotha, Felrick, and Caukdim left to go outside and sit with Anise, genially pouring one out in remembrance of Alexi.

But, the possibly calm night was ruined by a loud banging as a door to one of the buildings down the path was violently shoved open and you saw a robed figured pushed out, tumbling to the ground. After him walked, Brienne, holding a sword to the figure’s throat. “I thought I told you to leave this place.”

Gihisas 11 839 AT

== Intro ==
Welcome to [[Wruitros]]. The year is 839 AT, or After-Totality. Once a land full of dragons and their riders, mighty heroes that changed the course of history, and a seemingly endless duel between two powers, [[Wruitros]] has existed in relative peace for two centuries.

This continent is divided by high mountains, wide-stretching plains and a history of conflict from which tensions still simmer. The [[Crosthold Shoreline]], a collection of port cities under [[The Martinus Alliance]] occupies the western shore of [[Wruitros]] as well as vast cursed land scarred by [[The Totality]] as from the more recent [[War of the Last Dragons]] that has been left abandoned for centuries. On the opposing coast juts a peninsula known as [[Arncorn Run]] which flourishes with diverse cultures and an atmosphere of freedom. To the north of the continent lies the largest portion of the continent, grander in scale than even that of [[The Kingdom of Gadena]] in the southern half of Wruitros. The [[Fallpond Highlands]] is a place of solace and safety for the elven people fleeing from the war of another land. In the centermost stretch of land you find The Broken Plains, a scattering of communities and nomadic tribes with no central ruler. In the southern portion of the continent lies the massive [[The Kingdom of Gadena|Kingdom of Gadena]], bisected into two valleys by the [[Varrenmar Mountains]]. Both [[Splissus Valley]] to the west and [[Glasgcost Valley]] to the east are ruled by the monarchy which is centered in the largest city, at the northernmost point of the [[Varrenmar Mountains]], called [[Gadena]].

It is here, well just outside of [[The Kingdom of Gadena]] that we begin our journey. Under the rule of King [[Eduoard Virag]], each city has grown and defined itself. The crown takes a piece of what you produce an earn as a tax and are expected to follow its rules and listen to the advisement of its appointed leadership. In return, the crown provides protection where needed.

We find ourselves in a town in the The Broken Plains at eastern edge of The [[Barnall Woods]]. This town is known as [[Woburn]]. It’s a bit of an odd place run by a strange man but the town itself seems to work as all other towns do.
== Session 0.1 Overview ==
Brenri hires Elora to guide her to The Triangle from where she can find a ship to cross The Abneau Gulf to continue the search for her brother. They fine their path blocked by cultists and join up with Gaotha, who has been living in the woods for a while, traveling alone. They help a few shepherds who's flocks are being accosted by wolves and in doing so find out that flocks were being stolen by wolves.

== Events ==

=== In Woburn ===
[[The Last Stop]] is the tavern on the far west side of the city. It’s the last tavern/inn before exiting into the Barnall Woods. It is run by [[Rufidna Keepcase]]. Elora knows her well and the tavern is often where she picks up travelers to guide as well as where she goes to drink the time away.

* Benri is staying here, she is sitting at the bar. There’s a commotion outside and someone yells about a bear and in the door walks Elora and Anise.
* Rufidna will try to set them up as travel companions. Benri is looking to go to [[Crosthold Shoreline]] by boat and needs a guide into the kingdom and to [[Olnfield]]’s port. She is searching for the dwarven settlement along the coast; thinks her lost brother might be there.

There is a commotion out the front gates and there are three axebeaks outside the front gates being held off by one orc who is the guard of the gate.

=== On the [[Crownroad]] ===
There is a shrine to [[The Pathmaker]] on the side of the road. It is a tower of flat rocks about a foot in width and four feet high. There are five of these plinths in a circle. A small pixie attack occurs.

=== [[Fort Ansmond]] ===
Supplies from The Triangle are not making it to the fort. It’s been many weeks now. They recently sent a small group of three soldiers to the farming towns. The soldiers went by way of the [[Crownroad]]

- The soldier have been killed.

Barry, a soldier who man’s the northern gates of the fort.

* Knows Elora on sight as she usually passes by on her way to [[The Triangle]]. He has opened his home to her before when she was alone, but with travelers, they stay at [[The Forest Post Inn]].

The soldiers here look beleaguered, their supplies running low. It also seems like their own storages have been being swiped from.

[[The Forest Post Inn]] is not much of a bar, the pickings slim, especially now, but there are a few nondescript, simple rooms that he rents out. It really seems like it’s just his house. This is a fort for soldiers, not a city to be lived in or traveled through. But it provides a way stop for any who might come by.

'''What the Fort knows about their missing goods:'''

* They didn’t jump on it right away because of their stores and also because sometimes things happened on the road but when it kept happening, they looked into it.
* They have found tracks, but they’ve been confusing.
* Four pawed creatures, two pawed creatures, maybe human. Animals couldn’t have gotten into the storehouses without opposable thumbs
* The soldiers they sent haven’t returned.
* Commandant [[Aranth Boovarsson]] was just brought word that [[The Triangle]] doesn’t have anything to spare if they want to keep themselves alive. It’s concerning. The thousands of soldiers at the garrison aren’t going to be able to train properly if they aren’t fed properly.

=== On the [[Crownsroad]] ===
'''''To The Triangle...'''''

Introduce [[Goatha]] who has taken up residence in the woods outside [[The Triangle]]. They have been in the area for a while and have seen a lot of signs of a strangely high number of wolves around. They are unaware of the larger trouble within [[The Triangle]].

=== [[The Triangle]] ===
As you follow the edge of the forest, [[Silvercreek]] on your left, you can see the that faint visage of a village in the distance. This is very familiar to Elora who has made many treks from [[Woburn]] to [[The Triangle]]. You pass by the village to your left, across the river, which is [[Woolhope]] and continue on your way to [[Olnfield]].

About 150 ft ahead of you, you see a pair of men driving a small flock of sheep back toward the village with the help of four sheepdogs. All of a sudden, the dogs stop in their tracks, their ears pricking up. They start barking erratically. In response to this, the men pull long wooden clubs from their belts and begin looking around.

In the blink of an eye, lean grey shapes burst out from the wood, launching themselves at the sheep, and flanking them on both sides. You can see there are 8 wolves in total.

The group engages in a fight to save the sheep and shepherds and are successful.

The shepherds introduce themselves as Yana and Rumen. They are grateful for the help (if given) and ask for aid returning to Olnfield in case the wolves return. They share local gossip but cannot offer any real rewards.

'''Yana:''' All this started when that kid playing at sorcery, Tobias’ brother, upped and disappeared. Not that I’d hear a word against him, ‘course, but it makes you think, don’t it…”

'''Rumen:''' Nah, first sign of something out the usual was goin’ on came when the Jacobsen’s farm had a dozen sheep snatched from inside their barn._ _Their boy got thrashed somethin’ awful for failing to close it, but a week later, the exact same thing happened even though old Jacobsen had locked up hisself!

'''Yana:''' Myllhet, who comes through and sells wares here about was chased off her cart by a pack of wolves. Says they appeared from the trees as if by magic. When she went back with some village lads, the horses were gone, and so were three sacks a ‘thick leather she was planning to trade.

'''Rumen:''' Yana here was watching over his flock when he heard callin’ from the trees, begging for help. Well, he runs off to check what was wrong, but he couldn’t find so much as a mouse out there. While he was away, guess what? Dozen sheep o’his just upped and disappeared!

'''Yana:''' Month or so ago a band of blokes from the village went out to hunt the wolves; track ‘em back to their den. But soon as they were in the darkest part of the woods they were ambushed. Wasn’t there myself, but some of ‘em tell of booming thunder, others of bursts of fire. Sounded like an unholy mess. Anyway, a halfling named Wanderfoot – decent shepherd – was hurt real bad in the fight. All the others thought he was dead. But next morning he’s found dumped on Taly’s doorstep, near the woods.

'''Rumen:''' Poor man ain’t been the same since. Tells wild tales of voices in the night. Cracked in the head, they say.

=== In Olnfield ===
The two dip off to their farms as you enter [[Olnfield]]. [[Olnfield]] is situated on a grassy plain between the [[Silvercreek]] River and the [[Abneau Gulf]], fenced in from the north by the [[Barnall Forest]]. This is prime real estate for the joint farming and fishing village.

The houses and shops are generally made of wood and are rather plain; it seems that everything is well taken care of but it’s simply old. These people don’t seem to be living in poverty, but they are not wealthy by any means, part of a lower class.

There’s not much in this village. You can see a small general store, [[The Humble Basket]], a few other buildings that look like shops though you can’t tell what type. The rest seem to be lodgings for the people who live in the village. There is one stand out building, larger than the rest though no more glamorous. There’s a swinging sign out from that reads The Shepherd's Hook.

Going inside, you enter a large common room with a bar running along the back wall. There’s a door that goes back into the kitchen. It seems like a regular village bar. But, to your left is a rather grand staircase that leads to an upper floor. To the left of that, on the far wall are private rooms. All of the doors are shut so you can’t see inside. There is a halfling woman behind the bar.

== Session 0.2 Overview ==

== Events ==

=== In [[Fallevin]] ===
We begin in a room of the hall of the [[Avolire Keep]], which is the headquarters of [[The Fellowship of Righteous Arms]] in the [[Highsword Borough]] of [[Fallevin]]. We are in the private quarters of a young man, just awakening from slumber.

[[Joren Jolandel]], as you awake and go about your morning routine, you remember that you have been assigned a job for which you are supposed to be leaving that day. It’s in [[The Triangle]], which you’ve never been to but know is a triad of farming villages on the other side of the [[Varrenmar Mountains]]. [[Joren Jolandel|Joren]] and [[Caukdim Aralan]] are being sent to back up a previously sent group who according to the word that was sent back to [[The Fellowship of Righteous Arms|The Fellowship]], were not quite up to the task.

A messenger stops [[Joren Jolandel|JoJo]] before he leaves the building, giving him two messages. The first is that [[Denna Djarin]] expects him back for training as soon as the job is done. And the second is that the Guildmaster [[Lorsan Ayred]] wants to see him.

Inside the office are [[Lorsan Ayred]], Reed, and [[Caukdim Aralan]].

[[Lorsan Ayred|Lorsan]] explains that [[The Crescent Rising]], an academic group, has used [[The Fellowship of Righteous Arms]] for many years to guide them through the mountains. They made plans in advance. Since, [[Joren Jolandel|Jojo]] is already going that way, he will need to take their emissary all the way to [[Landow]].

They leave the city by the western gates that leads directly into the mountain pass. There are posted [[The Fellowship of Righteous Arms|Fellowship]] guards on either side of the road. Two of the soldiers are talking to a figure they have never met before.

=== Through the [[Varrenmar Mountains]] ===
Through the mountains is about a day and a half trek. To [[Landow]] is three days.

Nothing much happens through the mountains. [[The Fellowship of Righteous Arms|The Fellowship]] has posts every so often and they patrol to keep the pass as free from danger as they can.

Late in the night or early in the morning, either they are alerted by movement within the post thaty they stayed there, and are alerted by a pulse in the air followed by roars, grunts, and snarls. A little way away in the trees, where there are many cave openings into the mountainside, a gnome, [[Felrick Claysteel]], is being attacked by a pack of jackals.

They succeed over the what has appeared to be were-jackals.

Coming out of the mountains, [[Joren Jolandel|JoJo]] would know the way to the road. On normal crossings, the guides drop their travelers off in the [[Illeridge]] but that would be out of your way on your current trajectory to [[The Triangle]].

They find the road easily enough. It is well traveled, marked out of the land and the safest route through the kingdom as its can be highly populated with traffic.

=== In [[Bardford Quarry]] ===
The land of the [[Splissus Valley]] is scarred. There are large swaths of land that are abandoned. It is a complete opposite from the [[Glasgcost Valley]] on the opposite sides of the mountains. This place has seen battle and destruction that has left remnants years later. Some of its coming back, but there are scores of long dead trees falling to ash and places where the ground seems infertile.

They arrive upon a ramshackle town about dusk. The sun shining purples and blues over wide open plains. It looks like at one point this place was a tent city that over the years developed into something of permanence. There is absolutely no organization to this place. The building popped up wherever someone managed to find space.

There doesn’t seem to be a central inn necessarily but there is a rather rowdy building, that seems like a tavern of sorts.

They enter the tavern, and it is jam packed. Full of people full of dirt and dust and soot like they just finished a long day of work and this is everyone’s go-to meeting place to end the day. It is loud, boisterous, and many people are already tanked.

They hear one voice over the din, a scraggly slurring voice yelling, “You don’t believe, you never believe me. But I found it. The halls of Kendorahl are right beneath us and you all are going to miss out.”

It’s coming from this old, dwarf who has imbibed far too much

“Shut up, Skirvir! You didn’t find the lost halls of Kendorahl, you just found an old, empty mine.”

'''Skirvir:''' You’ll regret not believing me.

He points aggressively into the man’s face. They completely ignore him. It seems like this guy is always drunk, always going on about this thing he’s found and no one takes him seriously.

He tells them to meet him outside the tavern at dawn to find the mines, but won't go down with them.

A small stone shed stood where the entrance to the mines used to be. The shed is now nothing but ruins, and just a faint trace of the foundations remain. The entrance itself is a gaping hole in the hillside leading down into the earth.

=== [[Bardford Quarry]] Mine ===
The big takeaway is that they treated the mine like a dungeon, [[Caukdim Aralan|Caukdim]] viciously killed a group of kobolds, and they left without finding the secret place [[Felrick Claysteel|Felrick]] had been looking for.

=== Entering [[Landow]] ===
[[The Cult of the Dragon]] cultists try to stop them from entering the town and they fight

Anyone is willing to answer their questions about the state of the towns. They are informed that there will be a meeting the next day in [[Olnfield]]. They are given a room at an unnamed inn, or can travel to [[Olnfield]] where they can get a room in [[The Shepherd's Hook]] and attend the meeting on the morrow.

Inside the office are [[Lorsan Ayred]], Reed, and [[Caukdim Aralan]].

[[Lorsan Ayred|Lorsan]] explains that [[The Crescent Rising]], an academic group, has used [[The Fellowship of Righteous Arms]] for many years to guide them through the mountains. They made plans in advance. Since, [[Joren Jolandel|Jojo]] is already going that way, he will need to take their emissary all the way to [[Landow]].

They leave the city by the western gates that leads directly into the mountain pass. There are posted [[The Fellowship of Righteous Arms|Fellowship]] guards on either side of the road. Two of the soldiers are talking to a figure they have never met before.

=== Through the [[Varrenmar Mountains]] ===
Through the mountains is about a day and a half trek. To [[Landow]] is three days.

Nothing much happens through the mountains. [[The Fellowship of Righteous Arms|The Fellowship]] has posts every so often and they patrol to keep the pass as free from danger as they can.

Late in the night or early in the morning, either they are alerted by movement within the post thaty they stayed there, and are alerted by a pulse in the air followed by roars, grunts, and snarls. A little way away in the trees, where there are many cave openings into the mountainside, a gnome, [[Felrick Claysteel]], is being attacked by a pack of jackals.

They succeed over the what has appeared to be were-jackals.

Coming out of the mountains, [[Joren Jolandel|JoJo]] would know the way to the road. On normal crossings, the guides drop their travelers off in the [[Illeridge]] but that would be out of your way on your current trajectory to [[The Triangle]].

They find the road easily enough. It is well traveled, marked out of the land and the safest route through the kingdom as its can be highly populated with traffic.

=== In [[Bardford Quarry]] ===
The land of the [[Splissus Valley]] is scarred. There are large swaths of land that are abandoned. It is a complete opposite from the [[Glasgcost Valley]] on the opposite sides of the mountains. This place has seen battle and destruction that has left remnants years later. Some of its coming back, but there are scores of long dead trees falling to ash and places where the ground seems infertile.

They arrive upon a ramshackle town about dusk. The sun shining purples and blues over wide open plains. It looks like at one point this place was a tent city that over the years developed into something of permanence. There is absolutely no organization to this place. The building popped up wherever someone managed to find space.

There doesn’t seem to be a central inn necessarily but there is a rather rowdy building, that seems like a tavern of sorts.

They enter the tavern, and it is jam packed. Full of people full of dirt and dust and soot like they just finished a long day of work and this is everyone’s go-to meeting place to end the day. It is loud, boisterous, and many people are already tanked.

They hear one voice over the din, a scraggly slurring voice yelling, “You don’t believe, you never believe me. But I found it. The halls of Kendorahl are right beneath us and you all are going to miss out.”

It’s coming from this old, dwarf who has imbibed far too much

“Shut up, Skirvir! You didn’t find the lost halls of Kendorahl, you just found an old, empty mine.”

'''Skirvir:''' You’ll regret not believing me.

He points aggressively into the man’s face. They completely ignore him. It seems like this guy is always drunk, always going on about this thing he’s found and no one takes him seriously.

He tells them to meet him outside the tavern at dawn to find the mines, but won't go down with them.

A small stone shed stood where the entrance to the mines used to be. The shed is now nothing but ruins, and just a faint trace of the foundations remain. The entrance itself is a gaping hole in the hillside leading down into the earth.

=== [[Bardford Quarry]] Mine ===
The big takeaway is that they treated the mine like a dungeon, [[Caukdim Aralan|Caukdim]] viciously killed a group of kobolds, and they left without finding the secret place [[Felrick Claysteel|Felrick]] had been looking for.

=== Entering [[Landow]] ===
[[The Cult of the Dragon]] cultists try to stop them from entering the town and they fight

Anyone is willing to answer their questions about the state of the towns. They are informed that there will be a meeting the next day in [[Olnfield]]. They are given a room at an unnamed inn, or can travel to [[Olnfield]] where they can get a room in [[The Shepherd's Hook]] and attend the meeting on the morrow.

==Description==
Two large mountain ranges separate a vast land of plains to which humans flocked centuries ago. It is surrounded by the [[Abneau Gulf]] in the west and by [[Bracemy Bay]] in the east. The southernmost edge of the country if bordered by the [[Thesson Tips]], a large and intimidating mountain range that has well protected them from invasion. Originally home to mostly humans and some half-elves, [[Gadena]] is now rich with the likes of halflings, dwarves and the occasional elf and genasi. There are tieflings and half-orcs that reside within [[Gadena]], but they are few and far between.
