STE Session 1 Recap
What Happened
- Leaving the Berg Abis, Galvas, and Siegfried met Amreth in the ruins of Old Town. They formed a party, which they have not named, and ventured into what was left of the once proud Bergstadt.
- Our heroes first came across some wild boars rampaging down the street and quickly dispatched them.
- Larry the street urchin came running down the street afraid but determined to find help for his family. The party then took pity on him and resolved his dispute with Bare Knuckles Bandits. Larry awarded them with a map of Low Town indicating a great treasure.
- Larry, Lucy, and Lex in tow the party headed for Upper Berg Market and the small village of New Burgy to find out what they could. Along the way they rescued Michael Verloren, a not unknown adventurer, from certain death at the hands of a stone sentinel in the Museum of Antiquities. Instead of working with this accomplished rogue, Galvas threatened him with death for even attempting to steal the Berg's treasures. The party was unable to penetrate the museum's impressive security and moved on.
- Our band of heroes then wisely looked on as The Prophet of Joy worked his wonders of song and prayer upon a group of goblins and bugbears. When the bugbears began to awake from their charm, the Prophet disappeared into the Grove.
- As the sun set red with blood, our party arrived at New Burgy and came to the aid of Nielson as he guarded the village from giant rats and kobolds. Once inside the former University, they met Headman Hank and learned about the travails of this small and seemingly inept group. Galvas learned from Michael the Wise that some books in the attic survived the fate of kindling. Our party has rested the night and prepare for the second day on the surface.
