In which our heroes ...
Orhan 3 Day 10 TE 6064
After a while. VK shows up. In full dragon form. Then he walks in the
door. We ask him about a lot of things. His answers are pretty much universally
"No," "Don't worry about it," or "Sure, as long as you defeat Shreck."
Orhan 3 Day 12 TE 6064
Oathar goes to talk to Enik For. It's a bit depressing, but he does hear
that the Prince is in secret negotiations with mysterious thrid parties.
Oathar tries to figure out how to effectively hunt pirates.
Orhan 3 Day 14 TE 6064
Haeraan decides to try to help fund the Nuyani war effort so contemplates
giving them 7000 gp. A secre envoy from Ardania arrived a couple of days
ago in Ashenoq with demands from Ardania.
Orhan 3 Day 15 TE 6064
We go to Ashenoq to talk to the Hutarn. Outside the palace is a large
black carriage with the symbol of Ardania on the side.
We wait a few hours and then are let into see the Hutarn. We discuss with
him about Ardania. He asks if we can provide 15,000 troops by the end of
next week. We say we can't. The Ardanians want land on the Southern Coast,
5K tribute a year, and the right to move troops through Nuyani territory.
Looks like they're going to knuckle under.
We decide to set Shar up in Ashenoq. Shar needs 100gp startup funds, and
25g a month "contact money".
We go talk to Kedric Balaris, the Ashenoq loremaster, a cleric of Kour.
He weilds the Staff of Tog. Casts the six 50th level sorceror spells once
each full moon of Orhan. Also a x6 PPM Sorcerors/Cleric. He thinks Pocantos
or Selkai are the likely ultimate targets. He agrees that the deal is probably
the best Nuyam Kom is going to get.
We talk to the Hutarn and give him the bad news. The Hutarn gives us the
royal artwork etc. to smuggle out of the country on some of Oathar's boats.
Ardania gets what it wants. They immediately start setting up fortresses
and supply depots as well as cultivating the land the are given.
Orhan 3 Day 15 TE 6064
We tell James in Santa Vallandra to open diplomatic contact with Stoane.
Nimle and Whisper report that trade caravans with Ardania picked up considerably
in Stroane. Danarchis pulls a lot of trade out of Selkai and trades more
with Kaitaine and inland.
Kaitaine has another demand that it joins "the
alliance". They refuse again.
Orhan 3 Day 33 TE 6064
Kieronalia soon- Kyrik gets a letter
from his wife asking to be rescued from her father for Kieronalia. But
first he talks to the high priest of Valris looking for advice on the matter.
"The Emporer probably won't kill you outright." "Make sure your wife and
her mother are there when you tell him. If your wife can't prevent your
execution, it probably wouldn't have worked anyways."
Orhan 3 Day 34 TE 6064
Oathar helps Kyrik hunt a Phoenix. Oh look Wyverns. We leave away. Go
to another volcano. We track a phoenix to it's nest, sitting on a small
rock out in the middle of a lava pool. He decides to talk to it instead.
The phoenix promises him a kid in a year, but only if he promises to give
it a suitable place. He says he'll work on that.
