Escort quest: escort Iremë of the house of Gil-Galad(elf from the first era) to Rivendell.
-Attacked at hillfort.
-Saved by eagles, and brought to Eagles Eyrie
-Gaerthor (chieftain eagle) got hurt in the process.
-We are taken back down the mountain by the eagles.
-Iremë was taken in the night, as darkness overtook us in de ruins of Haycombe.
-We awake in the now not so ruins of Haycombe, surrounded by the smiles and laughter of children playing.
-We found out we are in a connected dream, whilst Iremë is being harassed by shadows.
-I found myself a little boy (Haleth) wanting to be my squire.
He said his father is captain of the monster guard and will tell me how brave he is.
-We are told the only elf nearby is called Rodwen, and we make haste to find them.
-The monster guard come back into town and the boy runs through the crowd to see his father.
-But it is a ruse, they give a speech and there are undead and stuff and they killing people.
-We barricaded the inn, and we are to enter combat with the undead filth!
-All of us are knocked out in the ocurring frenzy, all but Bodo the hobbit, who runs to the second floor in search of safety!
-Captured by the easternlings, we are taken towards Dol GUldur in a giant slavecaravan.
-Locked in a cell in the deep cairns of Dol Guldur (sorcerers hill) we try to keep our sanity as we crumble day by day.
-It's been days, weeks even,and i was thrown into the arena against a hill troll.
-Next day Haleth gets thrown in, and he dies.
-NEVER SURRENDER, NEVER GIVE UP. KEEP FIGHTING FOR THE GOOD OF ALL.
-Shadows tempt us into surrender, we spit at them at their foul offer.
-We awaken seeing Iremë awake and well, a group of elves ride upon us on horses.
-Iremë speaks well of us to the elves, saying: There truly still burns fire in the hearts of the people of middle earth.
-We return to Woodmen town where we settle in for the winter, and prepare for our meeting with Radigast.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We have celebrated the birthday of Bodo the hobbit, our dear friend.
-
We make our way to Rosgobel.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Spontaneous encounter: We find Beran the watchful (friend of Radagast) covered in spiderwebs as he collapses to the ground
-He has a coded note on him, which Bodo manages to translate.
-It tells of orcs in Fenbridge castle near Dol Guldur, and another one manned by humans.
-We quickly make our way to Rosgobel once more, now with the unconscious Beran by our sides.
-Amon Bauglyr appears to be the old name of the human-manned tower.
-Chased by hounds of Mirkwood we hide in an ambush stance.
-I and the Lenient are discovered and try to bluff our way out of the problem.
-The leading woman calls herself Daghmar.
-We are met by fellow "woodsmen" who say that Beran has stolen a map from their lord (which I think is Sauron in some form).
-They call their lord Mogdred of Tyrants Hill *shrug*, doesn't ring a bell.
-We merge groups and make our way towards Rosgobel, where we hope to find solace in the arms of Radagast.
-I string up a conversation with the lass as we walk, and she tells me about her experiences with Mogdred
(she nearly seems to have a crush on him)
-She speaks of threats in the south: spiders, orcs and other humans.
-One night at the campfire i spot their hounds lugging off with Beran.
-I shoo them off, and put Beran in front of me where i can keep an eye on him.
-I am suddenly attacked from the hind by their filthy mutts!
-Their filthy rabbies ridden teeth sink into my shoulder.
-We annihilate the phonies and Daghmar runs for her life.
-I blindly run into the forest to chase her, all the while Ingold finds her trail and tracks it.
-Upon my return i am pointed in the right direction by The Lenient, after which is chase Ingold as if my life depends on it.
-We all return to the camp where we quickly pack up our stuff and travel further.
-We arive at Rosgobel, and hurry along to Radagast's hut.
-Meeting Radagast he heals Beran and reads the note that spells trouble.
-We discuss the goings on in Mirkwood, and figure out Saruman has made an appearance recently.
-Radagast proposes we make our way to Mountain Hall, to discuss with them the recent troubles in Mirkwood.
(discussing Dol Guldur)
-We are told to speak with Hartfast at Mountain Hall, to discuss the trouble we're in.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We take a little rest at Radagast's cabin, where I try to talk/listen to the trees like the great master himself.
-
Radagast's points us to a chest, which contains a piece of paper, natural amulet's, a strange small walking cane, a bag that feels weirdly strange, and a bottle with an amber hue about it.
-
We meet Bana, a cheery, upbeat woman (a childhood friend of mine) who was asked by Radagast to escort us to Anduin.
-
A folkmoot ensues, there is talk of trade with a settlement to the east, Dwarves wish to trade dwarven made weaponry for wealth, and Mogdred arrives with Daghmar wishing to make a deal.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Message quest from Radagast:
-We are to head to Mountain Hall, to speak with Hartfast about the recent problems within the Mirkwood.
-Along our journey, we spot a shadow moving to the mountains in the west.
-We arrive at a secret dock, where several boats linger in wait for us, which we will use to head further east.
-Around gladden fields, we float into a misty, swampy area.
Bodo remembers stories about the old hobbits that used to live around this area.
-We arrive at Mountain Hall and are stripped of all of our weaponry.
-We talk with Hartfast and he seems to like us.
-We go to sleep, and in the middle of the night, we awake to a goblin raid.
-We go to sleep once more, and awake to find Hartfast who tells us of a hunter/guide at breakfast.
-We are taken further into the long hall, into a closed-off room.
-He shows us a big horn and tells us about its ceremonial uses: If outsiders are grown accustomed to by Mountain Hall citizens.
-Meaning Mountain Hall is a sanctuary, and Hartfast is our new Patron.
-We are introduced to the Hunter/Guide Magric, he seems to be well-spoken for a woodsman.
-We go on our way toward the Gladden Fields.
-We see a wild hobbit spying on us, and as we quickly go to inspect, we find out their name is Marsha,
and that they hate everyone besides other hobbits.
-Bodo crawls into their "Hobbit Hole" and gets grabbed and pulled in deeper by Marsha.
