Start of a new journey

The players start of in the military trading town of Eshpurta. Since a 2 months prior a band of bandits of taken hold of the old outpost near the snakewoods to the North. At first the leaders of Eshpurta remained indifferent to the threat. But as time passed the bandits became bolder. 2 weeks ago they set up an ambush along the road from Eshpurta to the city of Keczulla to the west.  A noble and one of the leaders of the government named Lord Mikaal Dannihyr was on his way back from signing a business arrangement when he was taken. A couple of days later a note was delivered to the remaining members of the government with the demands. They wanted money, a lot of it or else they would kill the town official. Such a large sum was clearly ridicolous and although they cared for their colleague, they would not oblige.  They first send a small detachment of soldiers to save the official, but somehow the bandits knew their tactics and anticipated their every move. The attack failed and the bandits send their last warning.
Now the son of the noble, Lord Eshur Dannihyr captured, is looking for strong adventurers to take on this task of saving his father. He himself will accompany the party in their quest.
