Session 1: The Beginning Report

General Summary

10 FEB 2019   16 AUG 3024 Ǎ12 36288 Ê1   The party began by meeting each other at the Inn where they all were staying. They witnessed a group of Kalabashian rangers seize a man at the back of the dining room. They party intervenes and finds out that the stranger is accused of crossing Kalabash’s territory in order to get to Sardar. The soldiers then continued to take him into custody. The bartender protested the Kalabashians doing anything in Sardar territory. Meanwhile, the players foil the attempted kidnapping.   Sergeant Killian arrived and arrested the Kalabashians and freed their prisoner. Killian later asked the party to join her at the keep. There presents an offer to the party on behalf of King Melchanthion.   After a long line of kings, the current king, Sigemund, sitting on the throne of Alteria is weak. His father, King Lodric, was a mighty king and had taken several former Kalabashian outposts, and also had established footholds within the wild country. All these gains are falling apart. Kalabash has sent rover bands to disrupt trade and stability within these gains. A major orc and hobgoblin faction is rising, and is amassing an army to repel the Alterians from the wild country.   There is a current plot to kidnap the Alterian princess, Melisent, King Sigemund's only heir and hold her for ransom. She is currently pledged to marry king Melcanthion’s son, Dominic, to establish a loose alliance between Alteria and Sardar against Kalabash. 5 messengers have been sent by the Alterian king to seek out the Crimson Order, who are great warriors known for their prowess in battle and magic capabilities, to protect the princess from these threats. The Crimson Order had worked with King Lodric, and now Sigemund wants them for the protection detail of his daughter. They reside deep in the Wilds, in a secret location. The messengers have memorized the location, so they carry no map, and have sworn a death vow should they be captured. The king’s army is weak and is being supplemented with a high number of mercenaries throughout the realm. He needs those who can be trusted, and the Crimson Order have a reputation of high honor.   This stranger, whose name is Bucar, is one of those messengers. King Melcanthion wished that Bucar is escorted to the Citadel, the Crimson Orders keep, and was seeking to employ the party for this task. The offer is: All lodging/food will be provided, 25SP per day each (to be paid by Sigemund), and compensation for lost items during mission.   The party agreed to the terms, and will set out the next day for the first way station along the King's Highway.
