She slowly rises and wipes the black gooey mud onto a nearby rock. The old man leads his herd to a protected spot between some huge boulders and overhanging trees. Moira takes his distraction as an opportunity to get further ahead and find a quiet place to camp. She surely did not want to listen to grunting hedgehogs all night long. More >

Looking around cautiously, Moira gets slowly out of the now still water. Her clothes are dry and the temperature is quite warm now. She puts on her clothes and is just about done putting her attire together when she hears a distant cry. More >

“I think I went through a time portal. Some small golden dragon dropped this chain with a disc of mithral around my neck, but it fell off when I was falling through the corridor. I have no idea what it was for, but I have a feeling I need it.” She could see his brow furrow and his eyes look faraway. More >

In a hard thud, she is on her face in the soft forest loam. Spitting dirt from her mouth, she is amazed at her rescue from almost certain death. As she wipes the soil from her eyes, she spies a pair of small leather bound feet. More >

She goes into the dark cottage and wonders how she was able to find those bottles in the darkness of night. No matter. She starts gathering a multitude of stuff in a soft leather pack. Maps, powders, vials and other things are quickly stuffed into the pack. More >

The blacksmith shop will have someone demonstrating the art from time to time. More >
