Session Summary
Around Town
The session begins on the evening of January 23rd and finds Daeron searching for Perc Graysky, the captain of the militia. He spends the entire evening searching for him and finally happens upon him in a grove where he is kneeling, apparently crying. He recovers and Daeron has a conversation with him that touches upon the following points:
- Scaun was a long-deserted fortress dedicated to Gruumsh until recently when the Spikeshroud Orc Clans started cooperating and began rebuilding Scaun and bolstering their numbers.
- Shorn was a neighbor-town that was totally obliterated by the orcs. Survivors settled in both Dormantown and Roriport. An orc encampment is currently within the ruins of Shorn, thought to be the staging point of the orcs' forays further south.
- There are three primary orc clans in the Spikeshroud Mountains, the Rockgut, Bloodskin, and Shatterbone, and they have primary outposts aside from the unified Scaun.
The next day, a memorial service was held for those that died during the orc attack. A number of people spoke during the service, including Rosa De'Elemon, Nicoli Aserteak, and Perc Graysky. The service included prayer, remembrances of the lost, and strategies to keep Dormantown safe.
- Perc Graysky revealed that both his wife and son were killed in the attack. He left the service after speaking of his love for them.
- Rosa De'Elemon spoke of her love for Dormantown and how it would continue to endure despite the challenges that it faces.
- Nicoli Aserteak detailed plans for fortifying Dormantown, hiring mercenaries, and seeking aid from neighboring towns and countries. Delegations set off to both Elvareen and Kandor.
After the service, Fagan von Feld had a conversation with Rosa De'Elemon touching on the following:
- Rosa De'Elemon is willing to ship the Forshantir off to the main temple to Pelor in Kandor for destruction.
- She is also willing to allow it to stay at The Shining Light to be guarded by Rufus, a clay golem.
- She states that she has requested aid from the Church of Pelor (via Sending); she expects nothing less than swift military assistance.
- She spoke of how the Forshantir had been used against the town before, causing accidents, unusual happenings, and a minor demonic invasion.
- She stated that a blackguard named Eavrish was the one who stole the Forshantir from her while the undead had taken over Dormantown; her description matches that of the man who was in Kirnuk's cellar.
Meanwhile, Mazer went in search of the best historian in the area. He was directed to Iladan Crestwillow, ranger, expert mountaineer, and council member. While burying the dead, their conversation centered on the Marco Wars and mentioned the following:
- Patrick Stempilos was an advenuring companion of Mygrandin Antaloose, who traveled much of Rhino Island and Euramer together. He was an extremely strong and well-skilled fighter that also led many battles of the Marco Wars.
- The Seven Pendants of Dira were magical items wielded by Mygrandin, but Iladan stated that Mazer would have to find someone knowledgeable in Arcana to learn more.
- He stated that Mygrandin traveled with a varying number of two dozen different people before the outbreak of the Marco Wars. These people included all manner of wizards, fighters, clerics, rogues, etc.
- Mazer asked a question about the Mark of Stempilos, but was again directed to find someone knowledgable in Arcana.
The party decides that they will go on a week-long patrol in the area northwest of town to find any remnants of orc activity.
Out on Patrol
Day 1
The party came across many farms that had been unmolested by orcs; in fact, the farmers weren't even aware that orcs had been in the area.
Towards the approach of evening, the party came upon a large pile of bones at the bottom of a hill. They spotted that there was some movement in the mass and slowly approached on their horses before the bones became animated and attacked the player characters. After defeating them, the party was able to determine that the skeletons were dwarven in origin but not how long they had been undead.
Day 2
This day saw more farms and no signs of orcish activity. Early afternoon saw the last of the farms and the beginnings of the rocky foothills of the Spikeshroud Mountains.
In the evening, the party was attacked by two dire wolves, who were put down with moderate amount of effort.
Day 3
The party reaches the Spikeshroud Mountains proper and turned to north to reach the Wolf Claw River. Before doing so, the party came upon a path leading into the mountains that was littered with numerous dwarven bones. The party holed up in a cave for the night.
Day 4
The party decided to follow bone-laden path and went up into the Spik
