The Four Lands - The Great North Part 2

[J. Alexander]

Journey

"Why yes of course, please help yourself" When Anniston retuns and begins to lay out his pallet, deSion looks a little perplexed "There are beds in the next two rooms if you think you would be more comfortable in one of them" he says.

 

[Canaan]

Jaroth

Jaroth, too, will bathe himself and get some sleep.

 

[Rath Lorien]

Anniston looks a bit perplexed as well, "Ah, yes, of course. Beds. What a novel concept. I suppose that would be just the thing to do. Thank you, DeSion, you are a gracious host."

 

[Rath Lorien]

Anniston will go to sleep. But he will casually arrange it so that if possible, he sleeps in the same room as Jaroth.

Journey

sleep comes quickly to the party and the wake up call all to soon. After what just seems minutes the party is awakned by the blowing of horns signalling the time to depart in close. As they stumble from their beds the party is shocked to find out that only 6 hours have past and once again you are setting out hours before sunset with the intentions of riding thru the night once again. this pattern repeats itself for the next ten days at which time the lack of sleep and hard exertion is beginng to take it's toll on the most hardy of folk.

The Journey only stops on the night of the ten after a full day on the march alternating bewteen riding for an hour and walking for two hours. Having been on the move for the last 42 hours the party is bone weary.

Actions

 

[Scotley]

Bertrand

Used to hard travel even Bertrand is shocked at the way these people can move. Stiff and sore he is pleased when a halt to the journey is finally called. He looks around to see what sort of place they have come to.

 

[Neurotic]

Vorian Tolgar

Vorian is used to hard traveling, but he cannot help but admire the pace kept by these people. Since Delilah can easily keep pace she would be somewhat spared of hardship except Vorian runs ahead with barbarian scouts listening to their language, remembering sign language, exploring the terrain and watching the land for any sign of corruption.

After ten days of hard marsh he is still very grateful for a chance to rest.


OOC:I'm back to full posting next week. Thank you all for your patience

 

[Rath Lorien]

Anniston looks around carefully. His normally bright eyes and high spirits are dulled due to the stress of the journey.

He will do some quick calculations and try to determine the number of miles travelled and in what general direction.

 

[Rhun]

Vadric too is sore and exhausted. While he remembered the long marches of his younger years prior to becoming military attaché to the Patriarch of Eastland, it had been a very long time since he had had to endure a march such as this.

Dismounting, the knight-priest looks around him to see what sort of place it is that they have come to.

Journey

The group is encamped in a small valley with sentries posted on the surronding hills. The land itself is tundra with long dried grass still standing. The plainsmen seem to be as exhausted as the party and soon after making camp them retire for the night leaving a moderate guard.
