Pnp Update For Zachian
So we finally got to play.
Randall and Callitheus snuck into the elven compound using warp wood and silence spells. They dispatched (killed) two gaurds but we overheard--silence expired-- by to more who they killed as well, but not before much shouting ensued. Trailan and Marn stayed in the woods, and escaped.
The got into the main house, let in by Elbereth, but the alarm was clearly raised. They used invisibility poitions and managaed to the drop on the gaurd of the treasure chamber. Retriving thier items, they went down the secret passage to the large chamber and retrieved the meteor, but took their time doing it and were found out. Elbereth had left by this time.
Sentenced to die by being dropped from a hippogriff, they were instead rescued by the rogue Gelgeled, who had switched places with the hippogriff rider, and who had also managed to retrieve the backpack with the meteor. Marne, Trailen and Elbereth hitched a ride with a passing dwarven caravan and eventually the whole group got back together at the Lion and the Lamppost inn.
As the caravan got a day north of Bastion, they were ambushed by strange spiders, who had iron armor grafted onto their carapaces (sp?) during this attack, Knut, Marn & 4 dwarves died, many others were poisoned.
Returning to Salix, they were rewarded and sent to Antioch to be magicked home. Upon arriving home, they discovered a scroll sent to them 3000 years earlier by Marn as Patriarch, which you have seen (Modified slighty to include and new hook)
Now where does the party go from here? Tilmamir?/Tinuviel? input appreciated.

Groups next move
I thought of a couple of things for the group that I wished I could have been a part of.
One - Attack the Bugbears. I know, I know, people could get hurt. But if the group did enough damage all at once the Bugbears might disperse(sp) and then the town/keep/village wouldn't have to worry about it anymore.
Second - Find out if they are really the chosen ones sent to find the keep. Or is that what the going back in time was about. This would require more work on the DM, but what's he good for anyway. Haha.

for Gwaihir - an the rest
This was a bad weekend. After much reassurance of going through with the adoption, the birthmother decided to take the baby home and reconsider. We are on en emotional rollercoaster - the kind that makes you sick.
She still sends e-mails telling us the adoption will happen, but she is not sure when.
For the game: Why did se go back?
** Find the bones of Salix, Lost even 3000 years ago, and the sword.
- Marne, Archbishop of Selucia:
- Marne, Archbishop of Antioch:
- Patriarch Dion II in Malta (Malta? why there instead of Antioch?)
- Marne "put into place resources that may reinvigorate the church"..."remember this letter"
. . . . see if this letter has other secret messages. Search the keep again. Anything change?
. . . . The meteor was forged into a sword in Alderweg. Is their a remnant of it?
. . . . The picture in the keep (it is marne!) magicked somehow?
. . . . Go to Arras - see what the letters to his family say.
. . . . Go to Antioch - perhaps Marne left some sign of what he wanted us to do there. Resources too?
. . . . What greater legacy did Keth Anar betray? Was he a "Keeper" of the secrets?
. . . . Accord of Antioch must be repealed somehow. Again, what resources has Marne put into place for this?
** other ideas:
- Second crusade did not kill off the evil - Randall is determined to rid his homeland of the evil present there. Salix died in the "Far North" which may be his home. Go there.
- cleaning out the Bugbears is on Randalls list.
- Ally Alderweg with Antioch and the church, especially the secret "keeper" society.

Important stuff first
Sorry about the adoption thing, that sucks, I didn't think that was allowed? we will keep your situation in our prayers.
Game stuff
Decide what you would like to do next session, I can prep pretty much any of the ideas you list below.
Actually Dion II of Malta was a typo. I can probably explain it, but lets either
a. suspend disbelief and edit the document
b. attribute it to DIONS old age senility setting in.
I'm planning on playing on the 8th at S&S house
