The Twenty-Third day of Thrice-Milce, in the year 400 BY
The Company of Odd Fellows
The company was able to limp back to the Odd Fellows Hall a few days later. The trip to the Insect Warren was a success and they sent Andy and Domino to sell the items they found in Edgemont. They returned a few days later and Andy split the proceeds of the sale among the team. While they out adventuring, Alaktyrr had finished up brewing up his first batch of healing potions. He had created 3 of them and offered them to the party for 200 gp each. Knowing that potions had been the difference between life and death in the past, they purchased them.
Their rest was to be short. Later that evening their old friend Elias teleported in with some dire news. Something had happened at the Iron Fortress in Freestead. Recently a large emerald had been found by Dwarven miners, they called it Freestead’s Glory and presented it to the Duke. He was so pleased that he was going to throw a celebration at the end of this month. Not long after a woman arrived in his kingdom on the back of a white dragon. Her name was Kylenne and Vadarin was immediately smitten. So this celebration was also to be the day he married her. Unfortunately it never happened. A huge explosion ripped through the keep and when the local militia reached it, they found the keep enveloped in a glowing green that burned when they touched it. Before nightfall monsters of all types began moving into the valley. The militia and Duke’s forces outside the keep tried to hold them back but were driven east away from the keep. Duke Halvdann has sent some of his men from Newton to help out. However Elias knew of a backdoor into the Keep’s lower level and he wanted to send the party in to investigate what was going on. When they questioned him on the speed they would have travel, he pulled out a scroll and tapped it against is other hand. ‘Get your gear and let me know when you are ready’
