The Company of the East Road

     He surveyed the town, a burnt shell of it’s former self, and he concluded that had it not been for the Company, Trestlebridge would have been all but destroyed entirely. He had stayed behind to ensure the security of the town until more forces from the Bree-town watch would arrive and he had the unenviable duty to bury the dead of his enemies.

We pulled up to the Forsaken Inn in record timing. I went inside first to make sure that Altheric and the others had left; I met them halfway out the door.

My time within this company grows with each day, and so do the relationships have forged with the members of the company. I am surprised by my own willingness to stay in the Bree lands and be in the company of such mixed races. The Ithilwe of ages past would have scoffed if asked to mingle with men, and most especially dwarves.

This grudge I have held for the mortal kind seems to be softening with age and experience. My readiness to keep their company is growing and I have found many good friends among the members.
