11.11 - Haddal's Gate
General Summary
[by mythicalmax]
After one of Kittarin's apprentices brought back news of a group of bandits holed up at Heddal's Gate, high in the pass on the way back to Falinor, Grunk, Elfriede and Matthias set out to route the bandits from their fastness and re-open the way for supplies to enter the Reach.
That night they crept their way up the pass to the gate, brutally dispatching the bandit's sentry before he could sound the alarm. Elfriede discovered from the sentry's attire that these bandits were not mere cutthroats, but in fact a group of deserters from the Falinor military, preying on the very people they were sworn to protect during the war. The party snuck their way into the gatehouse by a high ledge on the cliffside, and after some baby-throwing shenanigans, attacked the leader of the group at the western side of the fort. Elfriede burned the man's face off (which Shloopurr is very sorry to have missed), and Grunk proceeded to work his way through the rest of the force holed up at Heddal's Gate. In less than a minute, the deserters were annihilated, and the adventurers from Last Rest victorious. They returned to the burgeoning village with the two hostages the deserters had been holding, as well as news of the pass' re-opening, their only worry the pleading last words' of the deserters' leader.
Songs of Glory: Grunk (+1), Elfried (+1), Matthias (+1)
