May 21, 2022 Recap
As a new season of adventure begins in Myth’gar, the returning Crystal Bearers find those who stayed behind did not fare so well. Those of New Townland who chose to winter in Myth’gar were found starving and in near incoherent condition. The returning and new Crystal Bearers chose to use magic and potions of healing to return their friends to full health.
Once everyone was healed in New Townland, the leader and second in command of the town, Azrael, and Oreillus abdicated. They then formed an adventuring group to head out on their own. They were responsible for opening the Crossroads Tavern to the public, so all of Myth’gar had access to healing potions.
New Townland, now under the leadership of Tyrrin, employed Knute to finish constructing the walls to protect the town from monsters. He did finish but not before the Monster attacked and made off with the outpost shield.
Meanwhile in Home, The Cult leader Mike “Jim Jones” Ratrider was the only one who chose to winter in Myth’gar. When Zander the Mad found him in a sick and weakened condition, he chose to dispatch him and send his soul back to the garden for healing. Once Mike returned from the garden, the people of Home made deals with the Monsters for peace in exchange for raw Mythrainum. Then they made a deal with Azrael’s group for flowers that McLaren had been hoarding. Finally, they started the first steps of trade by escorting a caravan through the Wood.
The Monsters of Myth’gar, now Crystal Bearers themselves, set about getting an outpost shield forged. With the raw mythrainum they got from the people of Home and the help of the Grand Forger of Champion’s Fall, they were able to do just that. With that completed they set up the new outpost of Golgatha on the ruin of old Hammer’s Hold. With that done they opened the public bank at the ruins of Fizbandurr, for everyone in Myth’gar to use.
The People of New Townland desperately needed their Outpost Shield back that Visuvious of the Monsters was carrying. To get it from him meant defeating him in combat. Instead of that, Tyrrin, the Arcane Blade, kept the monsters busy while Seymor, a new Crystal Bearer, ran to the outpost of Golgatha. Finding it undefended he liberated the monster’s outpost shield and returned it to the ruins of New Townland. In this way the outpost of Dark Shire was formed. The people of New Townland, were now the people of Dark Shire.
Dark Shire, now with protecting walls in place, had little fear of the monsters. To improve their Outpost they retrieved a Rune Forge and completed a smithy within their walls. With this complete the people of Dark Shire participated in many random quests.
The people of Home continued to facilitate trade by combining resources to create “jungle juice”, a special export from Home. Several of Home’s inhabitants ran afoul of Azrael’s group and were summarily hunted down and dispatched with extreme prejudice. Many of Home’s people also took part in random quests, some of which were responsible for them running afoul of Azrael.
The Monsters tried, in vain, to retrieve their outpost shield from Dark Shire. In the end they settled with using the New Townland’s shield for their outpost. Now naming their outpost Ramen. Some of the monsters now felt it was time for them to enjoy a random quest or two. In this way Virtuous became a purple bunny and wiped out all of Home. Visuvious passing by the carnage took possession of Home’s outpost shield.
At the end of the day the great Rune chest was opened. Inside was the crown of the Gray Elves. The character who has possession of the crown may enter Fen’Arwen.
