The Fellowship Broken
-
[In the early morning a call went out. A trial by combat of those who dared to defy a King. From Collingwood the Fellowship set out, joined with those feeling the call of good. Led by Dame Alice Araucanas and Lord Winters, people are quick to talk of seeing the Elf Glendur Tir’ein, known to most as simply Archer, the Troubadour Esvele Oaks, the halfling priest and Cormaeril retainer Meroigrin Undenteld, and the intimidating Sapphire Thorngate. Many others, common and unknown, are remembered only as a footnote to history.]
[Details are scarce, but many come to believe that there were no survivors. One by one they fell, being unable to break the Scourge’s grip on the Stonelands. As night falls, fires to the north continue to burn, the black sky lit by a red moon.]
[Soon after the Royal Herald announces the Fellowship’s conviction of Treason commuted.]
