Well these posts are going to have a bit of a different feel from now on since I've switched from being a player to being a dungeon master. I guess I wrote things more as a overall story instead of from my characters point of view. It might be a bit weird but I'm gonna do my best.


So we last left our four heroes they were in a bit of a pickle. They had been arrested for a bunch of murder and arson (maybe our heroes aren't all that heroic afterall...).

It's the middle of the night and our heroes are asleep in their jail cells. A mysterious man has snuck into the jail to break out Shylok and the gang. He silently goes from cell to cell and breaks our Shylok, Serke, S'ith and Uugway. The mysterious man leads the group to the back of the jail where he casts a spell to create an opening in the stone wall. After everyone is through the wall, he conceals them in magical darkness and they begin to meander through the city away from the prison.

Eventually they arrive at a small sparse house. Once inside the mysterious man lowers his hood, he is a middle aged Dwarf with a short well kept beard and hair cut. The Dwarf doesn't have much to say to the group as he begins preparing them each a small pack and map. He tells the group about a ship arriving from Myrunki most likely after the Prince of Myrunki, Serke, who is on the run from his new mother-in-law who is power hungry and on the hunt for his head in order to secure the throne for her children. He also tells them that they won't have long to get out of the city before the guards notice that they've escaped. He suggests that they head to the Dwarven city of Torjmuld where they can seek refuge.

The group quickly packs up everything and heads for the city gates. Shylok and Uugway know the city quite well and easily navigate the group towards the city gates. Once out of the city the group decides to casually walk down the major road. Shockingly a short time after they leave the city a group of guards comes riding after them on the same major road. Hearing the horses riding down the road Shylok charges towards the trees, the rest of the group follows suit but not before the guards spotted them. Without weapons or armor the group had no choice but to run. The horses couldn't chase far into the dense forest and the group was able to lose the guards.

After running for a while they had successfully evaded capture and escaped.
