We arrive at Serpent’s tooth and Jardin circles a bit so we get the dragon’s eye view of the city of Port. Here I thought surface dwellers were imaginative… Port. Right.
The city isn’t a bustling metropolis.
We land out of sight of the turnpike without a gate and approach. The ‘guard’ shake us down for a toll, I happily relieve them of it as we pass.
The town is drying up, few businesses are open for lack of supplies. This town is a hub for adventurers heading into the mountains nearby for treasure hunting. We make our way toward the main building in town, the Smiling Snake owned by Sepal Gundula and meet a few old acquaintances of the previous incarnation of our group, the Starchy Boys and learn a few things:
There’s 2 ships at dock: Captain Nigel Arkstone of Feldmark with the Bronze Wizard and Captain Vishnik of Admiral Elchior from the Armada with the Jaunty Jade. They’re at a stalemate at the moment.
Mortimer Fennic, a dwarf. Cvelnid a large woman, and Capt. Nigel are at the bar. They’re looking for adventurers to come back to Feldmark and help get rid of a giant zombie. The DVL’s won’t go near Feldmark, but anyone living gets absorbed by the zombie. The surrounding lands of Feldmark are laying fallow and famine is likely.
Captain Sorcha is a pain and runs the City Guard.
Druul negotiates a deal with Captain Vishnik allowing the Bronze Wizard to go free and we’ll leave with the Jaunty Jade. Jardin as Boborc, the orc with the immaculate goatee.
We let Captain Nigel know who we are after he shares a good bottle of Midmark liquor as he talks of Em, her kid Aubrey (After her father). She’s with a group of Midmark refugees at Dun Khel with Aldus Runnelbrook and a few others. We give him a Warden letter to take with him.
