Session 2: Defense of Castleton Report

General Summary

The team arrives in Castleton and meets with governor Aaron Boralis. He gets them set for duty, and that evening, they share dinner with Daze's family. They briefly encounter Decapitate, Daze's older brother, just as he is heading out for a scouting mission. During their stay, Ode makes friends with a bard in town, Sylva. Gloria makes a habit of assisting Lana, the town herbalist, with her shop. A little more than a week later, Decapitate returns, heavily injured and exhausted from days of relentless travel, to report that an orc warband is on its way. The town braces for attack, and the party joins the front lines to defend the city. The battle is long and bloody but ultimately the defenders of Castleton prevail and though many are injured, there are no deaths - a far better outcome than anyone could have hoped. They are rewarded with a pouch of gems found on the Orc Warchief's person. One of these gems was determined to be magical, and later identified as a gem of truesight.
