Pyriador

Expedition

Oakhurst party arrives in Pyriador.  The Chief  (Argul) is in the hills with many of the warriors looking for refugees from the neighbouring villages.  His daughter Belanthe is in command.   Belanthe, impressed, asks the adventurers to pick up a weapon shipment from Three Towers and return to her in Pyriador. The rendezvous is to take place on the night of the Flower Moon (7/3/2215) in the Shades Tavern.  She gives the party a token to identify them as her agents.   Later that evening Belanthe has the captured witch burnt alive in a wicker man ceremony dedicating the sacrifice to the adventures; the folk of Pyriador rejoice. Belanthe proclaims that she will double the bounty on live beastmen and giant captives for the wicker man to rapturous applause. During the festivities, a herder recommends asking the fisherman of Three Towers about the Blighted Swamp; she's heard a rumour they once found a golden goblet in a crab pot.
