New page

Around noon, we leave [[Restov]], buying ferry passage across the river and heading south. We run into a group of [[Nomen Centaur]]s at the burial mounds in [[C28]] led by [[Nara Fleetwind]]. The party negotiates with them, and we begin a trek back to their leaders' camp after the [[centaur]]s finish their rites at the burial mounds. We camp overnight in [[C28]].

Travel is slower than normal with the armored [[centaur]]s accompanying us. We continue to head south, and make camp in [[E28]] on 4/25.

On 4/26, a short travel south to [[F27]] finally brings us to the tribe's main camp. Their war priestess tells us that one of the [[centaur]] warriors wielding the legendary [[Skybolt]] was attacked by [[Spriggan]]s. If we return [[Skybolt]], they will help us. [[Spriggan]]s are known to frequent [[Culcheck Cavern]] in [[F25]]. [[Roland]] asks about the legend of [[Vordakai]], and we are immediately kicked out. It's clearly a touchy subject, and the [[Nomen Centaur|Nomen Centaurs']] relations with humanoids is strained at best.

With plenty of daylight left, We head to [[F25]], crossing [[F26]]. We make camp in [[F25]] that night near the cavern. We are attacked by [[Spriggan]]s in the night! Among their remains, we find [[Skybolt]], [[Maegar Varn|Varn's]] sword, and other assorted goodies.

The next morning, 4/27, we look for the [[Culcheck Cavern]]s. [[Roland]] finds a hidden entrance and we head in. We spend some time exploring the complex, but find no one and nothing of value. We head back to [[Varnhold]] and arrive in the evening, greeted by the retainers. They have been efficiently cleaning up and securing the buildings in town, and haven't had any trouble with more monsters moving in.

The following morning, 4/28, We head back to the [[Nomen Centaur]] Camp. We make it to the edge of [[F27]] and camp for the night.

As we cross into [[F27]] on the morning of 4/29, we are greeted by a dispatch of [[Nomen Centaur]]s led by [[Nara Fleetwind]], the Centaur that met us first at the burial mounds in [[C28]]. After seeing the bow, they take us to see the war priestess again. [[Nara Fleetwind|Nara]] tells us the war priestess's name is [[Aecora Silverfire]]. They're super happy to get [[Skybolt]] back and treat us well. [[Nara Fleetwind|Nara]] takes us to stable our mounts, and then we meet with [[Aecora Silverfire|Aecora]]. She explains the plight of the [[Nomen Centaur]]s. They feel they have been pushed to the brink of their ability to survive, and need to fight for lands to roam. She thought that the [[Culcheck Cavern]] [[Spriggan]]s had been responsible for [[Varnhold]] vanishing, but since we've recovered [[Skybolt]] from them without finding any of [[Varnhold|Varnhold's]] citizens, she feels now that they are unlikely the responsible party.

We discuss terms of peace between the [[Nomen Centaur]]s and Men: The [[Nomen Centaur]]s want 4 hexes turned back over to them ([[C27]], [[E27]], [[G27]], and [[H27]]) and agreement that humans will not encroach upon them again. We promise to get [[Maegar Varn]] to turn the hexes over, or, if we aren't able to recover him and his people, we will do it. The [[Nomen Centaur]] promise to not interfere with trade on the [[Shrike River]] (they weren't doing this anyway, but they promise they won't start) and that they will stay within their lands. They don't agree to act as a buffer zone right now. We agree that on the nights of the waxing moon we can exchange messages on the border of [[F26]] and [[F27]].

Feeling a bit bad about how she treated us before, [[Aecora Silverfire|Aecora]] offers more information on [[Vordakai]]. She says [[Vordakai]] was a slumbering warlord in the time of the mother tribes. There's a place we could go to learn more, [[Olah-Kakanket]] (Valley of the Dead), to the south, but it could be our doom. A [[centaur]] sighted a lumbering beast and think it may be related to the vanishing. [[Vordakai]] can be found by following a trail out of [[Olah-Kakanket]]. [[Aecora Silverfire|Aecora]] believes [[Olah-Kakanket]] is a graveyard and the trail leads to [[Vordakai|Vordakai's]] tomb. [[Xamanthe Silverfire]] is Aecora's daughter. It was [[Xamanthe Silverfire|Xamanthe]] that saw the lumbering thing. Disagreement with [[Aecora Silverfire|Aecora]] drove [[Xamanthe Silverfire|Xamanthe]] to leave and enter [[Olah-Kakanket]] herself. [[Aecora Silverfire|Aecora]] would be grateful for news of her daughter. She also mentions that the [[Nomen Centaur]] tribe used to have an agreement with a silver dragon that helped patrol the area, but it hasn't been seen for 10 years. They had previously seen it every 5-7 years, so they are at least 3 years past when they expected another encounter with the dragon. She speculates that it may have been the first victim of the vanishing.

We spend the remainder of the day partying with the [[Nomen Centaur]] tribe and decide to head to [[Olah-Kakanket]] next.
