Afternoon time. We are glowing blue and we are running towards to big bad’s tent.

We get to the edge of the camp before we are spotted.

Battle begins.

Glaive runs by one orc, slices it open and it goes down.

Perrol fumbles his attack.

Kross will fire two Bolts of Blasting towards the feet of the two guards, knocking them down for a total of 20 orc. (Damage: 21 S 7 B and 15 S 5 B)
Ghoral ran by the orc and missed.
The orc looks around and runs away.

Two sets of two tent bodyguard move from the left and right of the tent.

Kross will fire off two arrows (that glow blue) at one of the orc tent bodyguard. I hit his hand turning it to ground beef and nailing him in the chest killing him.

Orc and goblin are coming around the tent from the left and right.

Kross will fire off the last Bolts of Blasting to a group off to the right of the tent. Knocking a group of 13 down. (Damage: 29 S 8 B) With a 2nd arrow hits one in the vitals, killing him.

With the group off to the right, the 7 orc/goblin run away.

Three shadow come out of the shield around the tent and come towards Perrol and Jarlyn.(Kross does not see this.)

(The blue glow gives us a 1d6 K added to the damage and 3 DCV to armor.)

Kross will notice the 5 orcs that were knocked out, look around and run away.

The tent flap will open and the biggest orc we have seen steps out and lets tent flap close. He is standing behind the shield. He says, “You will feel the wrath of Sungraig.”

Some skeletons are rising from the right.

Sungraig steps out from the shield. Kross will fire two arrows into the chest with max damage, killing him.

The necromancer steps out to show him to be the Lord Marshal.

We are able to get the shield down and killed Lord Marshal/necromance.
With displaying the heads of the Lord Marshal and Sungrai, the enemy desperses to the wind with out looking back.

We get the Stone and find it to be part of a alter.

We find 4 Gold 8 Silver

We eventually get the tablet out and call the ship back. We eventually get the tablet out and call the ship back. On the way back to Tietha we are intercepted by a warship that escorts us back. We are met by some Paladins from Favored of Kilbern and a couple Hellreavers. Aldus Manus and Julliene meet us. They take the stone to a temple. There is a discussion among the high priests in town. We find out that it was an alter from one of the red gods churches, Lord of the Graven Spears; extremely evil. Aldus Manus asks us what we need; we have time to think.

Lord Redwater ask for the group (Noon-ish).

Said they are burning the bodies, which could be used in making Ghost and/or Skeletons (Normal, with Claws, Hunter).

There is a knock on the door, says there is someone reproaching the keep. We get to the wall and they are already walking back towards their camp. They say Sunkrag is going to wait us out and have us starve.

Sunkrag is the orc leader.

2 hits in the stomach with some solid damage. Also goes down.

We go back to the Lord’s office.

A cat shows up in front of Kross and hisses at him. Perrols yells “Kross duck!”. Kross is slow to react (missed DEX by 3).
He next says there is a ghost behind Kross.

Glaive does a sweep behind Kross (hear some wailing), Kross then ducks and pulls his sword and then Perrol attacks (more wailing).

The ghost attacks Kross. With some presser on the his head, Kross hears whispers “Attack the Lord”. It did not affect Kross. Kross will dive out of the way and away from the ghost.

The horses are striped and tied down, so they do not wander off. At low tied Kross will head back over to get the boat. On our side, Kross will spot a patrol of orcs on the opposite side. Will wait till the orc pass and head across the river.

Got to the wall and called up (so he would not get shot), Jarlyn calls back and said its ok to come up. Informs of the plan to bring the others over to the keep.

Ask about the boat. Told where it is and they will send a guy with Kross and Jarlyn to help find the boat. We find the spot and set off to get the others. We get the others and come back towards the keep. Our cargo is off loaded near the keep and all but the private and Kross will get out. They will row back and hide the boat again.

Caption Ullerson meets up with us. He takes us to the young lord.

We get to the lord and Perrol says there is something there, pointing right past and behind Kross (and to grab the cat). Kross does not seeing anything there, but knows that with his visiojarlynn, there could be something there. Both Perrol and Ghoral both get a hit. It devolves and Kross knows it to be ghosts (and from Jarlyn, EVIL).

Burne is from Thordar and they subscribe to the High Church (they can do priest magic).

Find out that the high priest died two weeks ago, about four days before the orc attack.

We are looking around the keep and are starting with the priest’s room.

Ahead, will see Perrol and Jarlyn look into the chapel, Perrol and Jarlyn are zoned out suddenly (mental damage) , with Jarlyn also throwing up.

Jarlyn is making plans to improve his mental defenses.

We go into the chapel.

Jarlyn detect evil underneath the chapel.

A inscription is found on the podium/alter that is in the chapel. It reads:

“Once set in a wall of black, now behind walls of white, the alter stone lies buried. The sacred place built around it.”

We search the library and find one scroll in a chest that’s different. It’s a map of keep called Stonegard and it has a black square in it. Kross notices that almost half of the foundation could cover same foundation. Kross also notices there may be an entrance on the cliff face.

We explore for the tunnel on the cliff face and we find what might be a set of stairs and then above it is a place in the cliff wall that has a crack. There are fresh orc prints going into it, i.e. within the last 24 hours

We currently have 2 orc tied up unconscious. We wake him up for some questions.

This orc is from Thordar in Mitharia.

Kross will take off his armor and leave his sword. Will take knife, bow and a quiver of arrow.

Roll Stealth by 6 as we head to the river.

We make it to the edge where the humans in the fort spot us and fire on us (not hitting us). We get them to stop firing at us and we cross the river. We get to the wall’s edge, ask if it ok to come up and talk. Got ok. Kross will carry Jarlyn up the wall to their surprise. We ask to speak to their leader.

Taken to one of the Castle’s towers. A higher up leads us to Lord. The Lord knows of our Group 42. We inform him of things.

Kross will head back to meet up with the other.

Meet up with the others and inform of what we learned at thenCastle. We camp away and set up double watches.

Burne found us on the last watch with Kross/Perrol.

Burne says he rec a message from the High Church, saying the priest had a vision that if the Castle fell, they should find out what the other orc take from the Castle and follow them.

Sunkrag, said to be a Child of a God (one of their god). A larger than normal orc. Said to have a  Human Necromancer with them.
