First Expedition into the New Land

This new land fills me with both unique fascination and cautious perturbation... Though parts of the Lunar Shores presents itself as beautiful, it is doubly deadly. The bloodhawks, though old news are still a threat to those untrained in the plains along the eastern road. However the only thing that brings my mind to wonder is what I learned from the statues that inhabit this land. Upon defeating one of these creatures, a black onyx skull was left behind. Upon picking it up I was able to tap into the essence of he who inhabited it. The answers I found are... enlightening.
 
The monk, Jamison is capable though. I do believe that he will prove a useful ally in the future. Anne held her own aswell, and was able to keep up our spirits as we went along with good food.
 
I am interested in the fellow wizard who recently came to town after Banbeck's death. His son seems an able-bodied caster, though shines with naivete. An ally mayhaps? Or competition... Only time will tell. I only hope that by the end of this I don't have to scratch too many more names on the table.
