- 4th Fruit 822 WK (D4)
A cloudy, cooler Autumn morning, head towards Arn's Ferry (AF). Arrive AF. Cross the river with others inc a bunch of herd guards headed for The Sweet Riding. Head South and then turn East and after a while and we find ahead is a huge wall 30ft wall across the plain, this is The Darkwall. We pass through the gates and head eastwards onto the plain. Travel east a few miles and around 7pm we make camp like previously. 4 going for a quick hunt before full dark and bring back some fresh meat. Night Passes.
- 5th Fruit 822 WK
A cool, cloudy looking day with late showers likely. We travel along the trail which is raised above the ground through magical means. Travel is uneventful till midday. We come to a small light woodland with some woodcutter crofts and pass lunch there. Celeste and Kharmul are positioned some 50ft ahead of the wagon. We pass the edge of the woodland just before dusk and set camp just beyond the woods. Trap are set. Around midnight a boy comes to the camp and talks about his family being attacked by zombies and the party not on watch. We go to help and a protracted chase through the dark woods follows. After much running around we finally corner the last of the enemy which includes Tibac who was a traitor in our midst who is dealt with for his crimes. We recover some items from the bandits who had access to items necromantic in nature - truly evil - even more so than a mind mage! Night passes.
- 6th-9th Fruit 822 WK
Travel across the plains, where we get to Carlston's switch where we find a wagon blocking the pass and so we head southwards. Night passes.

THye leave to head to town and we ride ahead and get back to town to resume our roles. Night Passes!
