[Stug3]

I had the fortune or misfortune, to once again encounter Renji, traveling south with a small group or would-be adventurers, of which I immediately joined. With a wink and a knowing look we had wordlessly formulated a plan to get rich (It is good to have someone so like-minded). Headed for parts unknown with an unknown plan and no organization we found ourselves facing dark spirits by the score and some kind of hulking creature made entirely of bone. The spirits were no problem to overcome but the bone creatures were unaffected by our feeble attempts to fell them, chaos ensued and many were killed. After a valiant rearguard action I was forced into retreat, as the spirits used magic to drain my will and eventually I fell mortally wounded. For the first time...
Luckily I was expelled from the void to find myself in Hlint, dim-witted and weak but among a few of my companions who had also fallen and soon we were on our way back to the field of battle, be it ever so slowly. We returned to the wilds around Fort Velensk and located the survivors of our group; at that point it was decided to assault the Trolls who roam nearby, another well thought out plan with another trip to the void and a long slow trudge back for me. Upon my return I was surprised (be it pleasantly) to find most of our ragged group had dispersed, leaving without their share of gold, (more for me is always better than less.) With just three of us remaining we again (foolishly) attacked the Trolls and this time I survived Renji did not. Unable to make it back on his own, I made for Hlint, Renji and I set off again for the wilds surrounding Fort Velensk to recover his remains. We took a short cut through the Broken Forest and were consequently set upon by Were-beasts and while trying to defend Renji I was once again introduced to the void. I got off easy. The beasts tracked Renji all the way back to Fort Hope and had him trapped at the Inn. Luckily the door of the Inn is much stouter than it looks and he was able to hold them off for quite sometime. I received a bird with word of Renji's predicament and set off to help. When who should I run across but Tegan. Well now...
Always a pleasure to see her, she is very easy to look at and with her magic skills growing daily she is more than a welcomed addition I informed her of the situation and she was more than happy to lend a hand. We eventually rescued Renji and stopped to get a pelt or two for Tegan. While there we had a run in with some bird-girls; Herpies I think Tegan said? Renji and his arrows, Tegan shooting fire (very impressive I must say) and of course me hacking away at these ugly creatures with the for-mentioned missiles singing past my head. What a grand time, a little brawling does wonders for the spirit. Someone mentioned pies and I remember little after that...
