The Mieres Chronicle
Chronicle of the Eastern Marches
1. Capital
Hunting2. Strange Homecomings
3. Hightower's Secret
Protagonists: Cashue Alore, Thraxius Todd, Match,
Con'Lane, Eve Greyheart.
Day
of the Dead, Cashue, Con & Thraxius enjoy the festivities as the
Elvish
deligation from Tuarhievel pulls into Ruorven. Eve sneeks off to watch
the
human celebration. Evening comes, and we find Match fleeing through the
alleys
from a band of mis-shapen thugs. Cornered, he turns to face them.
Cashue, Con
& Thrax happen to be coming out of a tavern while Eve appears from
an
alleyway, all in time to lend a hand. Dispatching the Beastmen quickly
they
take their prisoner Captian Fang (a Flind Gnoll) back to Mhedlore
Hansien. She
is taken aback at Match’s appearence, but after determining his lack of
evil
(as far as she can tell), she leads them to the Gallery, where she
shows him a
portrait of Darksong, and tells the story of Darksong’s many clones. It
is
decided Match will stay as Coerany’s guest, and Cashue will get to
watch over
him.
1st to 4th of Keltier
Lady Hansien,
concerned about Match (and in turn Cashue), sends the pair north
towards Mystvale,
where they are to lay low for a while. On the road through Duornil they
are
forced to seek cover in the ruined Tor known as Hightop as the mother
of all
storms beats on them with hail and lightning. Cashue & Match,
finding the
ancient halls intriguing explore, face rat hoards, a flying demonic
head, and a
pair of goblin interlopers before retreating to rest for the night.
5th of Keltier
Con
& Thrax arive at Hightower. Match persuade them to join in pluming
the
Tor’s secrets, and they (along with the ever adventuresome Chubo,
Thrax’s
partner in crime) find more than they’d bargand for in the undead
guardian, the
Dark Knight. His defeat awakens the land, and in a vision they find
that the
land has chosen them as it’s stewards...
