[QUOTE="Rhenny, post: 6740403, member: 18333"] Session 12 – About 1 1/2 hours of play From the journal of Myles Stormgroom (Human 3rd level Tempest Cleric raised by Elves) We woke in the morning and started our journey toward Elturel. It took about 6 days, but we made it there without incident. As we rode toward the town, we could see a magical light above it. Rumor has it that that magical light keeps the town safe from undead. Well, it certainly was an impressive sight. Inside the town we found an Inn and bargained for some rooms. I paid for our rooms and made sure that Valleja got her own room. The first one the innkeeper gave her was not up to her standards, so she and I spoke with the innkeeper. When it seemed as if he was not going to listen to reason, Val made the tips of his ears burn a bit and Isaac, who was watching, let his pseudodragon out of the bag, literally. (It seems as if this Half-Elven, Warlock has a special familiar. I think he called him Lil John…but I’m not sure). After this, the innkeeper became more willing to find a better room for the lady. I settled our tab and we went to our rooms to clean and rest. Later that night a burley knight of Torm came into the inn looking for us. He introduced himself as Untharr Frume, dressed in armor emblazoned with the hand of Torm. He was rather loud and jovial. When he said that Leosin spoke highly about us, we started to get an uneasy feeling, but he seemed to be sincere. He didn’t want to speak about business, and after buying us drinks, he had a drinking contest with Brevick. Quickly, Brevick showed Untharr how the Dwarven constitution could hold drink far better than a human. Brevick also bested Untharr at arm wrestling. That’s when Untharr told us he’d return in the morning, and he threw a coin purse to the bartender to pay for the night’s revels. Isaac went to the militia barracks to stay the night while the rest of us stayed at the inn. We enjoyed a night’s sleep and in the morning, both Isaac and Untharr came back to the tap room of the inn. We spoke a little more; then Untharr asked if Grim would spar with him at the training field. Grim accepted the challenge so we all walked over with Untharr and Grim. Those two battled for a good minute…Grim slamming Untharr with his greataxe a number of times. Untharr landed some blows too, but Grim used his eldritch magic to block a few blows as well.
