The Adventure Begins- 4th of Vlez, Year 865

by Thymeros Grispira

We got kicked off the icebreaker we were serving on (and had been serving on for 10 months) after Harold got caught eating gunpowder.

She was obviously happy to see me, but she knew I needed some kind of income, and going to sea again would be impossible for the time being. She told me about a possible job working for Lady Kara Brimwater, the noble who rules over Zarel. Before the meeting, all I knew was that Zarel was a mining town to the northeast. Apparently, there are monsters coming from the depths of the mountain in hitherto unforeseen numbers and frequency. In any event we agreed to meet with Lady Brimwater at her home in Miran. The long and short of it is that if we agreed to journey to Zarel, kill the monsters coming out, and find a way to decrease the frequency with which these creatures emerge, Lady Brimwater would pay us 16,000 gold pieces, with an additional 1,000 gold each up front for expenses. After we left Lady Brimwater’s house, we went to the southern district of Upper Miran, shopping at a place known as Thornpoint Goods, run by Grimsby Thornpoint, a male half-orc. After all that, we headed back to my mother’s establishment to rest.
