[QUOTE="silentspace, post: 1780060, member: 14316"] The next few days in Carodan are filled with the sounds of soldiers drilling and patrolling and of workers strengthening the fortifications. In the evenings the taverns are filled with rumor and gossip. It is said that a Vizelan elf patrol has gone missing. The Vizelan elves, from the Severin forest to the east, have been long-time allies of Shillen, and have been scouting and surveying the region from the air. They fly high and fast, and its hard to imagine anyone taking them down. Even the terrifying Gorukan wardrakes cannot catch them. There are conflicting rumors of Gorukan troops advancing through the borderlands. Some accounts claim large permanent encampments have been created. There are rumors that a hidden Gorukan stronghold and supply base was discovered quite close to Carodan, led by priests of Hextor, but that it was raided and destroyed by Warden Ricsten's men. Meanwhile Warden Ricsten's troops and mercenaries continue to engage the humanoid and giant tribes of the borderlands. The dwarves of the Diamond Mountains to the west report increased amounts of undead, especially ghouls. Banditry and attacks by hobgoblins and orcs continue to increase within the Kingdom of Shillen. There are disquieting stories of zombies and skeletons spotted at night, also within Shillen. Carodan dreams of battle, of heroism, and of death. * * * Summoned to Warden Ricsten's offices at night, you are led by an aide into a large room lit by torches. A table of meat, bread, cheese, fruit and ale has been prepared. The aide tells you to make yourself at home, Warden Ricsten will be here shortly. Looking around, you see several others waiting as well. [Please introduce your characters.] [/QUOTE]
