Session #76
​
8 H’rarmont (0930 am)
​
About 30 mins from Ice Mountain Bay, a damaged Ice Boat, with one of the skates has broken off. You find an Icefolk dead in the lower deck of the boat.
​
Tracks around the ship shows a combat was held, Thanoi and Humanoid, probably icefolk, also two tracks leading out north, humanoid. Tracks also show another iceboat that came close to the damaged boat.
​
Search the boat, nothing of value is found. Continue towards you destination.
Arrive at a Harbour. When arriving at the docks, 3 ships are there, 1 is tied up along the docks, two of the ships are clearly destroyed by some unknown force. The masts are broken in half and the hulls is crushed and partially sunk in the harbour.

​
One ship still looks see worthy, and there seems to be movement onboard. As you approach, you notice 2 Ice folk prepping for sail. (same IceFolk you rescued from the Lower reaches of Icewall castle.)
​
They recognize you and are very happy to see you. They welcome you onboard and tell there story.
​
Orn Heggsson, Jokul Orrisson from the Narwhal Tribe
Orn = wife and 2 daughters (missing, presumed dead)
Jokul = wife dies 5 years ago, he only had a son who dies last year by the Thanoi.
​
After being freed, Orn, Jokul and Olso made their way to their village, but it was destroyed and any attempts to contact the other tribes were unsuccessful. They decided to come here and escape to safety. Knowing that ships would be here.
​
They tell you that the reason they were at Icewall Castle was to find Orn's wife and 2 daughters, but there were no prisoners. And they were captured by the Thanoi. You rescued them.
​
On route from there Tribe, they were ambushed by a group of 6 Thanoi and managed to flee leaving one brother Olso dead.
​
They don’t have any specific destination; they just want to leave this place.
​
The Ship they are prepping is the Percheron. 200ft x 60ft, main mast 120ft (100/100)
8 H’rarmont (1300)
​
After some discussions, they accept to help you and sail to Halter Wood with you. They mention that they have already supplied the ship from the remains of the harbour.
​
They also reveal that they heard a while back from their wise ones, that the Qualinesti Elves and the Silvanesti Elves had escaped their lands to Southern Ergoth through Harkun Bay. Other rumors is that Lorac the Elven King was still in Silvanesti guarding the lands and sort of artifact.
​
Sail plan to Halter Wood, 500 miles (4mph) = 125 hours none stop, 125 hrs = 5 days of sail. 2 Crews = 1 Icefolk + 3 hands, change every 12 hours.
½ day training onboard and ½ day at sea.
