You can fill them out or start where I catch you up to, but I need this reference as much as the readers need material. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" />Summary of Events to Catch Greppa UpWith the Light of Luccas on our side, the battle with the enemy went far better. The battle field was no longer darkest night punctuated by flashes of lightning and summoning circles, and the enemy no longer amorphous shapes in the shadows.Still, it was hard to push Theralese soldiers back into that gap. Morale had been thoroughly broken, and it seemed unlikely that this battle would end well.Until the spiders came. True to his word, Hsethmah's legions of eight legged warriors poured from the cracks and dark places, and swarmed into the orc army. It ended swiftly after that, and the next morning was spent cutting orcs from webbing and putting them to work in Theralese grape fields.Although armed guards were present, it swiftly became apparent that orcs were accustomed to slavery - that they had, in fact, built their culture around it in some ways, and the heroes, no longer so young, confirmed this for the Council.With labor freed from the vine, the ranks of the military were swiftly swollen, and remaining orc invaders were harshly dealt with. Ravens would spy on the orcs at vast distances, spiders would creep into their camps in the night (leaving little but webbed slaves in the morning, save for a few dragged off for a snack), and the Theralese Shield Wall would beat the enemy into submission in the light of a ruddish sun.The heroes, meanwhile, had many things to take care of. Amalan came and provided land in their name, as promised, and granting land to newly formed families, wealthy merchants, vineyard investors and others took a great deal of the heroes' time. By the end of a whirlwind two years, there was a small but thriving community on the southwest slopes of Theralis that had previously been virgin forest, and the first grape vines were beginning to crawl their way along trellises.It was also the home to the first temples to Luccas and Corvidae, and Greppa and Merideth, in particular, found much of their time taken up by the routines of priesthood.More to come - gotta check some order-of-events with Greppa</blockquote>
