On Newcomers and Returners

by Avgift Kopparvingar Dharok

Romilius finally appeared again. Hard to believe its been nearly a year since we last saw each other. Well, heh, it might have been longer then that. We talked about the recent events with the mind flayers and the elves and all that fun stuff happening in the West, Romilius' business ventures into trade companies and worker unions, and of course, more Luminary rumors. The same as always basically. His ailment/curse does seem to have gotten better. The Bugbear seems more lean now. Less skeletal. Still slightly horrifying to see but it's not like a starved, depraved husk. Back to our topics though. His union is progressing. He gathers the workers near the port and gives grand speeches of a better life and better pay. Nothing too odd.
 
The same goes for the mind flayers. A few victories here, a crushing defeat there. Wardens in the background doing something. More of the new normal.
 
The odd part is the newer Luminaries. They are certainly interesting. The main character of our conversation was one of my kin. Ham, of my own clan, what used to be my clan anyway, worries me. She seems to prefer kitchen utensils to actual weapons. She has a bow and enough arrows but her main methods of harm are... well underwhelming. A meat mallet in place of a hammer and a lengthened kitchen knife as a replacement for a sword. Her armor is pots, pans, and other things that could not even protect against the most crudely made arrow. Perhaps that is a bit of an exaggeration but she is... worrying. Others included Calliope and Tyrannus. I can at least trust them to be competent from appearances alone though. I pray that Ham proves me wrong and shows her worth in mortal combat.
 
Oh, we also talked about the worst party that could have been assembled with the prompt being, self destructive party. We didn't come to a conclusion but those ideas remained pretty interesting if I do say so myself. I should think of another for our next meeting.
