Thorg Beregrim's Events Log
lichtkang
Pre-logs: Hrothgar and his brother passed here in search of a ruined fort to the east. Austin knew the way and led them to it. I couldn't follow, for there was an auction I had to attend in Kal'Urguan :: An Orc warlord of Krugmar came in Terriko, Mogroka'Gorkil. He demanded to see the mayor, as he required tribute. Apparently, he thinks Terriko is too close to the Orc capitol of Krugmar. Even though we explained him this town had been here long, he insisted. Some later, Austin, me (Thorg) and Blade went to see him in Krugmar, bringing write gifts. He was not in town, but when I spoke to Austin later he told me the deal was made and we are under Krugmar's protection. :: Long before I settled even in Kal'Urguan, where I had a small home for a short while, I went North, past Orin, in the Snowy fields. Apparently it was Undead territory... I should've known better! There, I met a small party of travellers, keen on rebuilding a fortress. As an Architect, I offered them my services and built the large, strong stone keep. No art, but nevertheless a fine piece of craftsmanship. When I ran out of stone and went to see the overseer, I stumbled in some people. They were talking to some Edagor, and were convincing him he should join the Black Hand. When they noticed me in the vicinity, a friend of the Black Hand members, an Undead Mage named Fyrste, sent fireballs and zombies at me! I survived by closing the gates, which didn't last long under the fireball attacks, and using the magic of the soulstone... I reported the events to Kal'Urguan's General and King. :: :: When I met up with Blade, after finally getting settled in Terriko, we set out to explore the surrounding towns. One of them was a Guardian castle, of the community of Tinra. The damn bastards! There was one guard there, when after a while he asked us to leave, he trapped us between the two gates, claiming he'd first close the gate behind us and then open the gate in front so we could get out. I smelled something fishy, when I realised what was going to happen and got to the edge of the in-between, the scoundrel opened a bridge below us, dropping us into the 'Cage of Shame'! We'll get them back someday... :: Logs: Blade got a letter yesterday, apparently Scott will be visiting us in Terriko soon! :: Some Aedin fellow visited us today, he was poor and needs shelter and a job but didn't have money to pay for accomodation. I showed him the inn and will stay quiet to Frenchie, so he doesn't have to pay. Were he rich i'd have passed on the money, but he's just some unlucky chap. I hope Frenchei or Austin are back soon so they can employ him! He seems like a decent enough chap... more than the orc who passed by a few months ago! :: I've been robbed! They stole the anvil and damaged my property. This town isn't safe, not worth the money I paid for this property at all! Aside from that, I haven't been paid for the walls or plaza yet. The way this is going, I might leave this town...
