Scribe Notes

Not having an adventure, those of us remaining went our separate ways although most of us gravitated to the Guild Pub. A few days later, I along with the few who were still there, were dragged out of the pub and deposited in Meeting Room 1. Seems there was a late coming employer.

The employer was a young lady with a black pointy hat, She told us her name was Heggity and there was a problem at the village of Sheppard on Ashwick, People were getting sick of some strange disease. She provided us with some amulets which it was hoped would protect us: Luck; Bloodstone; and Elderflowers.

My companions were: Reinhart Frosthammer – dwarven earthmage Foss Mathan – Orc from Big Smoke who makes strange things Marcus – Human Namer who was also a Centurion from the Lunar Empire

Marcus became the Party Leader and Military Scientist while I got the job of Scribe.

It was a really early start the next morning with porridge for breakfast before dawn, then we headed for the docks where our ship was waiting. I waved to Sol when She appeared. I then got pushed off the docks by Marcus. Dunno why but it was a good dip. Our ship was the ‘Cry of the Serpent’ commanded by Captain Ramsey. During the trip our Orc was appointed the purser and party accountant.

It took us all day to get to Dar, which had a triple port; big ships, fishing boats; and canal barges. After watching cargos being transferred from ship to barge – and vice versa, we headed for the Barge Inn. Arranging for our barge trip the next morning wasn’t too hard, after we detoxed the harbour master.

The barge we ended up going on was the ‘Rosebud’ which was easily recognizable by all the rosebuds painted on it. This was to be a two day trip to Silverstream and we stopped at an inn at the halfway point. Breakfast the next day was porridge and apples.

Finally reached Silverstream at a fork where the Blue Water flowed into it. The town of Silverstream was between the two. Here we got off and met the other three witches: Margurite; Fanny; and Granny. Granny was obviously in charge as she had a commanding presence which entered the room before she did.

We were told that the disease was most prevalent in humans but that might be because that there were lots for humans. The village was sixty miles further up the Silverstream and we spent the night at the ‘Pig and Whistle’.

Breakfast was porridge. (Amyone see a trend developing?). Horses and donkeys were provided for us to ride.
