Between the dinosaur and the ½ giant of the group, they can not possibly blend in.  They stay in the small villages only long enough to get food and a few supplies.  They also verify the directions to Glen Stone where they are too meet with the next House Cannith member.On the third day four centaurs stop them.  The centaurs are concerned about the group.  They do not belong to the Reaches.  The leader, dressed in studded leather, asks many questions of them.  They answer the questions carefully and sigh in relief when the four woodland defenders leave.  They are looking for the cause of the fires to the east towards Niern.On the fourth day they arrive in Glen Stone.  Little is here.  It is a House Vadalis breeding area.  There are many magebred horses here also.  The party searches for the Cannith contact within the only tavern here.  The Ripe Melon.  Here they find Vale d’Cannith.Vale is a Cannith family member whom follows the god Onatar.  An elf with a well made longbow is with him.  Introductions are made and updates required.  Keltis was last seen in Varna repairing his ship from extensive fire damage.  The druids that reside there seemed to have many issues with his mistress – a powerful necromancer and summoner of undead.House Cannith South is roughly one day ahead of them currently.  They stopped by a tradehouse within five miles of Glen Stone.  The race is still on and very even at this point.Vale buys magebred fast heavy horses for everyone.  Though Black sands doesn’t like it, he agrees to be reduced in size to allow better means of travel to be done.  He only agrees when Vale convinces him that the spell can be turned off instantly.  Even with this, they will take a long time to reach the Dark Hills where Drogan’s Trap is believed to exist.On the third day since leaving Glen Stone, the group is stopped by a group of Shifters.  The shifters try to deter the group from pressing on.  They fear the group will cause a great deal of harm to the forest and nearby areas if they continue.  The shifters know where they are going.  Another group has already passed by here trying to reach the area near The Gloaming.  The group is careful describing what their intent is.  Though the leader of the shifter tribe doesn’t believe them, he listens to them.  They try to convince the tribe they are here to stop the other Cannith house.  They speak of their actions in the past and hope to sway any distrust to the Cannith House South only.The last words make Sharshek worry a great deal.  “Beware of the Giants of Dark Hill.”</blockquote>
