News from Triel remains buoyant as Guild supported scouting and patrols indicate the threat reduced to local raiders and much of normality. Nonetheless on the back of two hand in of mandibles, the second by the Rising Flame, accompanied by a donation of goods and gold, Captain Vanders declared she would begin the third mission and opened war bonds towards the goal of increasing the magic defences, and supporting the learning of skills for defensive spells and items.

Spider attacks locally were confirmed as a small threat now that the traitor had moved further afield. The potential for normality seemed to be in the hands of Hellrider and guild allies.

An update is provided from the hub at Triel reflecting the current situation as the Captain worries the area has been overshadowed by other important developments. The incomplete nature of their position threatens a resurgence of troubles. Some good news with the widespread destruction of of spider gatherings along the coast has not entirely dealt with the risks posed by incomplete magic defences and the training and arming of the hell rider militia.

Scouting continues at a reduced level by many guilds and reports suggest a slight rise in activity among the goblin and orc tribes in the area, but no spiders.


Triel War bonds

Each bond is 100 bags

First 10 bonds collected to support the spider campaign.
second 10 bonds collected to support upgrading the Triel Militia to Hellrider Militia.

collections and donating Guild

3 bonds House Aldren.
5 bonds Everwatch.
2 bonds from BG
(Spider Mission complete, funds have been raised and are now being used to support spider hunting)

50 additional bags to support the Arts at the Fort. and a further 25 bags for the fort arts.

Upgrading Triel Militia Mission to Hellrider Militia has started (bonds are being sought) - Mission completed.

2 bonds ORH
2 bonds Song of the Morning
2 bonds from BG (as before donation remained secret)
2 more bonds ORH (created from a large collection of mandibles, thus reassuring locals)
2 more bonds ORH - completes the mission, 10 bags left over added to the arts fund.


Third Mission - Magical defences and magical training

Mission completed, counting some early donations from a mixed team thta provided magic support nad teaching, augmented by a donation from Keillen and Phoenix the matter is resolved.

This has left the area stable and enhanced trade through a once dangerous area of the Coast. Continued vigilance and support from Guilds may from time to time be required. But Triel is thriving.

A small unit of ORH called at Triel with a collection of mandibles seized in the field of the dead during one of their patrols recently. The substantial funds raised were immediately returned to complete a second bond towards the Hellrider Mission.

No sooner was this done than another group of ORH were called forward to present a donation of gold, 200 bags, another 2 training missions complete. The Hellrider Militia fully operational and properly funded to provide the regulars with a strong back up and security in the field.

All thta was needed now was proper funding of magic defences inspired and supported by various Coast Guilds but needing a long term Mission.

With all trade missions completed.

News from Triel, adding previously donated power, and wealth, and a recent donation the Captain there declares they are in a better place. Magic defences and training have been established scouting with guild aid an ongoing concern. A militia reserve for the Hellriders all bring anew stablity to the region and the surrounding trade routes. Nearby traders starting a new era of bold trade to far parts.

Stability here is promoting Triel and the surrounding area.

an elven scout dressed in green walks about the forests and woodlands near Triel, staying in the shadows and attempting to track hidden foes that may be using the apparent quiet to their advantage.


The ranger would try to not engage the hellriders in converdation and would try to remain out of sight, preferring to be an anonymous helper and friend, rather than looking for any glory.

Somewhere east, along the river Chionthar, along a worn rutted wagon trail, the weather turned form winter winds, to heavy rain, and then a thick fog.

But where a simple wagon laden down with riders went in, pure chaos came out.

Crossbow bolts, arrows, and knives turned to horns blowing in the fog. Soldiers clashed in the field, and magic sizzling or burning through the fog.

Things only escalated from there, and soon explosions, fire, and smoke went up through the air. And in those moments, in that hilly field, the world turned to hell for the aggressors and defenders alike. Blood was spilled on both sides though it looked like the aggressors were losing the day.

But peace only came by way of cavalry. When the dust of hooves kicked through and lances laid low what remained of the defenders. The wounded were recovered and hauled back to a fort in a cursed ruin.

The Whitewood Vanguard was back in the game of blood, sweat, and coin.
