The Mission

Aniella has been captured by the Vulture clan, About 8 people attacked killing 5 of her companions, no obvious magic (ambush). We are to rescue her as due to politics the tribe would not send its own braves out to get her back but would hire us. Visions see spirits of night and gems

• 19th April leave for city to the south at the river mouth where orcs of Jadak Mak have taken her for sale. She was sold for a few pots and pans etc as Vulture thought she had too much mouth on her and didn’t wan’t to keep her for himself. She was ambushed by accident - there is no involvement of rival political factions within the children of the traveller.

• 19th to the 24th Travel south along the river the wall is on the east side of the river about 5 miles away and is a dirt rampart with a 1 story stone wall on top.

We spoke to the Mayor brothers ( Staer radek and Keltor ) who told us they sold her to a group to Taiko slavers the last Saturday, about 2 days ago. These slavers are the Hung Chow consortium and are taking her to Taiko where they think they can get a better price for her ( 60,000 SP ( virgin, herbalist, cook ) ). They were staying at the Red Dragon inn where we had lunch and enquired as to their whereabouts , they had left. Fairweather could tell we were from Seagate from our coinage ( we will have to watch this in future ). We sold the 17 horses we got from the Vulture clan for 8464 Silver after a 6% commission.

• We then had Maracs trial were he took all responsibility and was banished, he is probably going to the barbarian horde to the north to live with the members of his tribe there, my guess ( I could be wrong ). We then travelled back to the guild arriving 20 full days before the next meeting. Valerie stayed behind ( she intends to stay for up to 6 months with the tribe ). Hana came back with us and is currently living in Seagate.
