General Summary
Accepted quest to find Kenshin's grandmother
Headed to Kitaun to find the dojo
Met some slacking guards who gave directions
Arrived at the dojo to hear the sound of a bell gonging somewhere in town
Young man runs out of the dojo, heading towards the sound - group pick him up in their cart and go
2 Hill Giants are attacking the guards at the western gate
The party and the young man, Kenshin, help defeat the giants, who manage to kill one of the guards
More Knights of the Shield arrive to clean up, and the group head back to the dojo
Apparently the giants have been coming down from the hills recently and attacking, but it is unclear why
The party explain that they have come to help find Kenshin's grandmother, who turns out to actually be a great-grandmother
The missing person in question is Marty, and famed adventurer from the past, who apparently brought the gods back to Ekina
Marty was on her way to the Temple of Mortona in the Phoenix Forest, but never made it
Cissara, the head of the church, has been unsuccessful in her attempts to find Marty through Magic
Kenshin asks if the group can bring a magical dagger to Cissara to aid in her magical search. The dagger used to belong to Marty, and is the only possession of hers that he has with him. The dagger is apparently dangerous though, and should not be used for anything other than the search
The party take the western road to Kureta City
During one evening's rest, they are attacked by strange creatures which are later identified as Meazels
These creatures of the Shadowfell prove to be dangerous beasts, using Shadow Magic to separate the party in their attempts to murder them
The Meazels are defeated, and the rest of the journey proves uneventful - aside from comments from other travellers about reports of undead in the area
The party arrives at Kureta City, with their next destination of the Phoenix Forest close by
