Recent EventsRecently a raid by a band of orcs and goblins left one guard killed, and injured Sheriff Stone when they tried to steal several cattle from the village.  In recent months sightings of humanoids has been more frequent and has sparked rumors of another horde assembling in the south.  Though reports point to a band of humanoids that may have descended into the Valley to raid and get needed goods by means of force.  The guards are nervous though because the fear lingers, and the village is more tense then usual as villagers begin to make preparations for more attacks.To this end, Mayor Thorns has put out a call to find a group of people brave enough to travel south, and search out any sign of an amassing humanoid force.  Thus far the past few weeks no one has answered believing the village to just be paranoid, and the pay does not seem all that commensurate to the danger that may be involved.   The Green Cloaks would gladly help but they are spread too thin.  But thankfully some young adventurers have come to answer the call, and earn a stout 170 gold reward for them to split.  And anything they can find is theirs to keep, for the danger they may place themselves in.</blockquote>
