The Entrance to Bloodstone

by Haldrac Hammerhanded

It has been a few weeks of travel since I left Thar. I've been travelling with some caravans, taking jobs to continue to the Halls. I'm excited that they have allowed us to come back, and look forward to trying to regain the glory of the stories that my family told me... Before Father went on his sabbatical... Travel through the Galenas was a little bit tricky. It started raining after 3 days into the mountains. The storms did not let up, and the further we trekked the worse it got.

This Gent didn't even have a cloak with a hood. What was he thinking! The Rains in Vaasa aren't as bad as along the coast in Thar but it can get pretty mucky down on the Steppes I've heard.
