Rumor has it that two dwarves are seen clearing the Pirate's lair in Ulgoth beard

just to met cultists and undeads working for Koraboros.

after waves of pirates with spells, waves of undeads and cultists throwing death spells at the dwarves, their leader Koraboros appeared from the summoning circle.

Victory was hard earned by those two dwarves. Once again striking down Devil, undeads and pirates from the land of innocent man. ///much appreciation to DM Ink for stopping by



Few weeks after, these two dwarves met Bhor Stonecutter leading them to another dwarven battle against the giants. It seems that these dwarf kin met more of their cousins these days.

A woman with strong golden red hair was seen jumping off a boat before the sailor in it had the time to reach shore, then whisk past Barnacle Bob, managing to knock at least two of his crates of fish over. Her clothes was all soaked halfway up to her torso, and sand stuck up to her knee from the awkward tumble. She responded to no one, and probably managed to push a bypassing villager or two aside. The curly haired female was seen disappearing swiftly into The Last Anchor. A gust of wind slammed the door shut behind her and she was not seen for a while.

The staff of the Anchor, familiar with this particular whirlwind of activity, answer her questions and do not impede her movements through the Inn.

On an oft used hill, that has at time seen weddings, deaths, celebrations, and doors, both opened and shut, and the ever keening whistle of a nearby shrine, a few folks gathered to lay one of their beloved allies, their friend, their comrade, to rest. On a hill over looking the township below, in that town that always seems to escape the worst of the ills that plague the region.

"May the departed know peace."

On the shores of Ulgoth's Beard, as Selune's light waxed above and waters met sandy shore, a gathering was had.

Bottles clinked, spirits were drank, lines were cast, and company was shared, on shore, and in the shallow waters. A gathering of Vanguard and at least one Squire of a Heart. But there was a ragged tone undercutting it all. Drunk revelry paused for a moment, as one stood in the waters, ignorant of the traitor-storm elf that had chanced upon them for a moment on the higher ground.

He spoke of the end of the road, to one in confidence, he spoke of the white-raven spirit that left his friend's body as she passed. He spoke of the passing of Aesa, whose eyes weren't right. Another eve of mourning was had.

Never you mind what dreams must follow at the end of such a road, and those that fall victim to the games of kings.

Disembarking after a peaceful sail down the river Chionthar, the southern merchant appeared all-business as he sought his client in the village of Ulgoth's Beard.

Finding her easily among a group fishing along the coast, there was a brief meeting, where great deference was shown by Jackard toward his client - several dips of the head and courteous posturing - a delivery made.

He left the village nearly as quick as he had arrived. His task complete.

A rumor may spread from nearby locals that a group of people were enjoying the beach when a mist rolled in off the water and onto the shore. A few voices could be heard on the beach, some calling to "cut the line!". Splashing could be heard about the shallow water with an occasional "hissing" sound as a heavy "CROAK" repeatedly permeated the air shortly afterwards, piercing the ambient noise of the waves and heard over the gathered voices. After a time, the mist receded and not a croak or hiss could be heard.

Some would claim they saw a dragon rise from the waters to protect its offspring, others may claim it was naught but illusion, another group might claim the first two groups are known heavy ale drinkers. A few however, claimed that a young dragon was reeled in by a man with a fishing pole. But that couldn't be true.

. . .Could it?

Several fishing boats were upturned and several men and women drowned in a large tidal wave. Rumor's spread of a foul mist hurling several skulls of what the locals reported as beautiful human women. The local watchmen speak of a woman holding the body of her fallen lover in her arms within a single breath of losing her life to save him. Several watchmen were teary-eyed at her desperation to save him. Many returned from their shifts early to spend time with their wives. Several of Ulgoth's Beard's shops shut early, and there is somber solidarity at the Bearded Mermaid tavern, many drinks are on the house.

Weak and weary the couple slowly made their way back to the beach after the waters calmed and the undead sea creatures returned to the sea. She watched as her mate gently returned a siren's body to the sea to be at rest. Her eyes filled with tears. For a short time afterwards, anyone passing by would have seen the two wrapped in each others arms, her face streaked with tears. They looked both relieved and upset. A bright light surrounded them, as if they'd been blessed by the sea itself.

Late in the evening on the 5th of Kythorn a slim brunette dressed in dark red could be seen searching for a spotted dog and young dragon in the cliffs and wilds of Ulgoth's Beard.

[JustAnotherGuy]

To those watching Ulgoth's Beach on the night of the 5th of Kythorn, they'd have seen a man dressed in green, with blonde green hair step into the water off the beach. He seemed to shift into a shark and then swim out to sea. If they stayed there, they'd not see him come back for several candlemarks.

[JustAnotherGirl]

Ashling could be seen speaking with the young dragon, perhaps looking a bit frustrated, but remaining calm. She can't understand the draconic he speaks, but knowing he can understand common, she tries to comfort him. She spends hours feeding him and calming him down, building up his enormous ego by telling him what a wonderful dragon he is to remain close to home and taking care of things. Before leaving, she promises to return with more food again soon.

She finds the spotted dog on the beach, far away from the settlement and houses dotting Ulgoth's. Her eyes got moist when she saw the girl looking deflated and forlorn, watching the ocean and waiting for her human. Ashling sat close, speaking words of comfort in low tones as she scritched ears. Tramp settled in nearby, doing his best to give comfort in his own way. She made sure fresh water was easily accessible and some meat too.




Ashling could be seen catching a nap there on the beach, after a very long night with no sleep. She was surrounded by familiar canines. When she rose to head out later that morning, Tramp was reluctant to leave Sorcha alone and remained with her. He could be seen bringing her food throughout the day and otherwise, just keeping watch with her.



Ashling would be seen hiking the cliffs and wilds and checking on both the young dragon and the canines often throughout the next days.

Of late there have been whispers around town regarding the Last Anchor.

It is known that the hostess Lannia Ranloss took her and Derik's young child to Waterdeep to visit grandparents and other family some time ago, but seems to be a bit overdue. The staff answer no direct questions about her absence but are unable to hide some of their concern.

Meanwhile, Derik Ranloss seems to be a bit more fidgety and reclusive than he normally is, not out and about in the town and with guests as often as he usually is.

A pair of humans has been seen in Ulgoth's Beard, storing a few tents and stalls in preparation for an upcoming farmer's market. A local pinned notice for said event bears a small symbol of Chauntea, suggesting the nature of the market's organizers, as well as a few points of contact: Rowan Quinn, Maelis Warren, or Sabon.
