Those days of downtime...what happened

A little DM Magic

The party ducked under cover for 3 days holding out while garrisons from the recent attacks moved about to prepare for their current operations. During that time, the party sat quietly in the destroyed tower, ducking one patrol spotted by Magic Zo's familiar and basically whittled away the droning hours in hiding.

Hador found it the most difficult to deal with by thankfully found mentorship from the dwarven cleric. Together they they explored the meaning of why Hador was chosen to bear the sword and talked through some deeply religious matters far confusing and boring to those not interested. By taking a closer look at the sword they discovered that the blade was forged in the distant passed and under the critical eye of a dwarf only was it noticed that the sword was forged far better than anything able to be done on Terris.

Yrin bored out of her mind set about pestering Hador at first but listening to the grand stories od Clangiden Silverbeard only made the boredom worse, and set her eyes on Gavin. After tormenting him about how she was going to pay back Edge, to the color of the sky, why water was wet, the internal workings of grass, and other what not she moved on to Zo, and pestered her about magic and how it works.

Zo managed to keep Yrin interested for several hours, better than having to reveal so much about a lady. Being in the woods with several men over night was dirty and improper, she felt a little releaved to be teaching again, and Yrin proved to be a natural with sputtering pops of magic. However Zo did manage to mend her close with her spells and clean up a bit.

Gavin after surviving Yrin's boredom, settled into long watch hours and monitoring radio chatter in the area. He discovered that the Red Legion was heading into two directions one west into the Black Desert, the other South to deal with a new threat to their plans. Also one garrison was remaining in the "occupied city" to await the arrival of a high level diplomat. To Gavin's suprise, he also discovered that beginnings of a radio media starting in Northgate, mainly to assist troops in the city with announcements, but used to announce news and propaganda. Once place mentioned that stood out to Gavin was a new tavern, that was able to pay for an actual radio advertisement.

The Drunken Dragon, a place built by a wealthy noble that utilizes all the new great conveniences of the new protectorate. The Drunken Dragon was the favorite Outland watering hole Edge and his mercs liked to frequent to recruit, wet down (get drunk), and let his troops spend all that hard earned cash. In fact Edge recruited Gavin at the same place.

By the evening of the third day the farmers son comes to you stating that his father was killed by a group of Hell Hounds and his mother and sister were taken into the city probably to be sent out into the black desert as payment to the Scorchers. He pleads for your help, to go into the city and get them out.

This begins at dawn of Day four...
