Session 10: The Toll

The party plans to leave town, but first a crow perches on Einar's head. After casting speak with animals the crow informs him that several large boats have arrived and that it wants bread. The party travels to the docks where they meet the admiral, Mora Treachia'lambur. 
She explains that they found remnants of a ship, with some bodies floating that were likely part of Penelope Drishoowl's party, but not Penelope herself. Aeoldere then found a 14-year-old black horse and named him Hazuu -horse-, while Einar refound Fable.
The party then set out for the Halgus Forest. Two weeks into their journey they were attacked by a group of highwaymen, two of whom managed to escape after paying their own toll. The rest were killed.
The party later arrived in the small village of Cromer, where Einar learned that a druid has been harrassing lumberjacks recently, and Sebastian found the group lodging with an elderly dwarve named Petrov and his wife Alma. Their grandson had moved out recently.
