Default Still Yet Another Page in a Notebook.

Walks through the town can have you encounter the most interesting people. Many seem to gather around the well; a kind of central hub or nexus for the town to gather and greet one another.

It was there I was swept into another party - at least this time it was going to remain in the outside air!

Better than the abortive attempt at the ogres that ended so tragically (the pain is too fresh, I cannot write of it, even now), at least the gnolls in the outskirts of Haven were relatively close by. Yet they were a definite reminder of how dangerous it is in these days to travel alone. I couldn't imagine sleeping under a hedgerow now!

A daring party, though I have to question the tactics they used. It wasn't fair that they lured the poor stupid creatures out one by one, over and over. But these tactics were at great cost to us anyway. It also underscored the futility of revenge. One would fall, and return to exact revenge on those that had so badly wounded him, then would fall again.

I too was badly wounded, but with the thanks of a cleric travelling with us, I survived to tell the tale.
