Day 1 12/4/13: Bree to the Fields of Fornost/North Downs
Attending: Flynagin, Bellaryn, Firen, Gilderick, Raelana, Mariwise, Threland, Nacrissa, Rensig (Blince), Torgrun, Tyrgrim and The Hermit.
Breakdown: Departed from Bree at Noon, bound for Trestlebridge originally. Firen brought news back that the road would be blocked by Orcs and we diverted our course to Nen Harn instead. We were followed by a small group of curious hobbits, all of which seemed to disappear once we had passed through the town's gates. After several complications with the wagon, we managed to reach the shores of the lake where we encountered a pack of wolves. Fighting them off, several of us sporting injuries, we pressed on after meeting 'The Hermit', who joined our company. Once we reached the river through the North Downs, the horses rested and drank from the stream and we ran into yet another familiar face; Torgrun as well as Tyrgrim who have both agreed to join our company. Heading North again, we crossed the river and set up camp on the edge of the Fields of Fornost.
Day 2, 13/4/13
Breakdown: Departed from our camp in the North Downs through the Fields of Fornost. Some of the group members were disturbed by the undead presence, causing some complications, including the escape of one of our horses. Once reaching Ost Forod, the company unloaded the wagon and moved the necessary equipment and supplies onto four packhorses which we exchanged for the wagon and the keeping of our horses while we would be away. Further along the road, the group set up camp along the borders of Forochel.
Day 3, 14/4/13
Breakdown: Dealt with a small group of brigands blocking the road, then made a late start into Forochel. Dealing with the perils along the road, the company remained uninjured aside from a broken leg. Rushing to the nearest village to seek refuge and aid, the company settled in at Kauppa Kohta, soon discovering the settlement to be barren, only a handful of Lossoth remaining at home as they prepare for the great hunt.
Day 4, 15/4/13
Rested at Kauppa Kohta
Day 5, 16/4/13
Attending: Flynagin, Drunn, Threland, Bellaryn, Sefa, Firen, Gilderick, Raelana and Rensig.
Breakdown: The group moved on through the rift of Ja-Kuru where they were separated by the winds. Half of them were trapped by an avalanche, and the others were forced on through the tunnel of ice. Eventually, they regrouped and camped by the hot-springs in the caverns, finding whatever warmth they could in the vicious atmosphere in Forochel.
Day 6, 17/4/13 (Final day)
Attending: Flynagin, Threland, Bellaryn, Sefa, Drunn, Raelana, Firen, Mariwise
Breakdown: Encountered two dagger-toothed tigers, Drunn taking the majority of the damage from them. By fate or by chance, a man,
Tamruben, had been following the group and took down the second tiger from a distance before it could do any damage to the group. The treasure was uncovered, only to reveal a pile of rocks, a dagger and a scroll, the entire journey revealed to be worthless.
