The Black Steel

The two men were sitting at the short table in the old man's room, Erenkhad was sitting upright with his hands on his knees, in an angle. The older man was grinning wickedly as he was pouring some of the red liquid for both, the scarce light makes it seem darker in the glass when they lift the glasses and drink. They remain silent for some moments, having been talking for most of the time so far, they just drink, one enjoys what he sees as victory, and the other, Erenkhad, waits patiently to be sent to ride out and bring glory.

Some days after the Slaughter of the Northcotton Farm

The Gates of the Tower opened and the man with the grey robes walked through, enraged. Behind him limped a man dressed in a ripped black cloak with a chain mail underneath, he was stil holding his weapons, a scimitar in his right hand and a longsword in his left. Once inside the walls he left them drop on the floor, limping behind the first man, leaving a trail of blood behind him. The sound of the dropping weapons made the first man turned around abruptly, as if he had forgotten what he had to say and shout aloud!

It was an early afternoon when Freyntar walked into the Prancing Pony to have some meal and ale, he ordered some meat and ale and to his surprise he found another Dwarf in the inn, who ordered the same after him. He didn't expect it and after his first surprise and some anger, the two greeted each other and sat to eat and exchange news, of the Blue Mountains one and of the World the other.

Sigfread says, 'Stand up...'
Sigfread shifts in his emotion. He appears to be somewhat angry perhaps. It is not quite sure
Hithfaerwen did so, letting out a small sigh. She turned to face him, showing the familar face, the green-grey eye, and the scar on the right side of her face. It ran from her hairline to her jaw, covering her eye, which was a pale white. She forgoes the eyepatch.
Sigfread says, 'So... What game is this? Whom sends you?'

The Black Steel company's vigil in the peaceful town of Oatbarton continues. As the company continues to explore the region looking for cues that might help them unravel the mystery before them, they could not have expected the horrors that were to unfold...

Honory is walking towards the camp. She peers to see if anyone is present there.

After staying some time at the camp near Oatbarton, the members of the Black Steel Company begin to grow antsy. Little did they know that an unforeseen visitor was lingering just outside the glow of the firelight...

Having been rested for so long had been fruitful, Fiontann was now in condition to walk without the cane, since the wound had healed completely. He took his longsword and went up to the Fighting Hall to practise some against the dummies that stood there for training.

After a long day and after managing to solve an issue with Gaeded and Athlenah Fiontann managed to invade the Barracks, after having them give hands or kiss or whatever they do when people make up.
