Two large cargo ships sail into view of Mariner's Hold, escorted by four naval vessels bearing the banners of Rael.

Smaller ships are lowered from the sides of the cargo vessels and start offloading wood and ore into a cove, a few Statute Miles from Mariner's Hold, with the compliments of Lord Rael to the people of Mariner's Hold:

-2000 planks of wood
- 400 sets of Carpenter's Tools
- 250 iron ingots
- 250 iron studs
- 500 spools of tin wire

Upon seeing this aid, the citizens of Mariner's Hold cheer.

An emissary is also sent to King William III's court, offering the aid of Rael's masons with the excavation of limestone.

[minerva]

The Palace graciously accepts the donated materials and the emissary can later be seen touring the affected areas of the city with royal escort.
 
 Rumor in the streets is that a special barracks in the Palace yard will be set aside for Rael's masons to aid in the mining of ore for the rebuilding in the recently reclaimed areas of the Taur'en Hills.

[minerva]

The Chamberlain dispatches a letter to the Orc Bashers and offers them a berth at the King's Naval Docks should their supplies be coming by ship, and the thanks of the city for their generous donations.

Rumor in the streets is that a special barracks in the Palace yard will be set aside for Rael's masons to aid in the mining of ore for the rebuilding in the recently reclaimed areas of the Taur'en Hills.

*Argali is astounded and dismayed when she hears the Sagewald Kingdom has allowed Rael's forces to land.*

"They are realizing that once they arre arriving, they will not be leaving, no?"

**Upon hearing that Sagewald Kingdom has laid claim to areas of the Taur'en Hills, she becomes very concerned, particularly in light of their partnership with Rael. With all haste, she travels to Mariner's Hold on Alindor, and tries to verify the presence of Rael's minions in the Palace grounds.

Then, she travels along the internal roadways of the Sagewald Kingdom to the Crest Hills, keeping note of any troop movement, or, heavens forbid, Rael's forces. From there, she heads south, and tries to ascertain the new boundary with Taur'en, and upon which side her beloved homeland now lies...**

A large Frigate sails around the remains of the lighthouse point and anchors in the harbor of Mariner's Hold. She is flying the colors of the Kingdom of Erilyn. Low to the water is her hull. A longboat pulls ashore carrying an emissary to the court of King William III. He gives the docks supervisor a list of the following supplies that the people of Erilyn wish to provide to those of Mariner's Hold in their time of need and asks him to direct the captain of the vessel where to begin the unloading while he pays his respects to the King and his court.
 
 
 The cargo of the ship includes:
 
 1000 planks of oak
 10 barrels of ale
 10 barrels of salt fish
 10 barrels of salt pork
 2 100lb bales of cotton cloth
 5 100lb bales of clothing donated by Erilyn citizens
 2 Barrels of nails
 10 50lb bags of flour
 5 50lb bags of raw sugar cane
 2 Barrels of corn oil
 15 large canvas tents
 50 cots
 50 head of cattle
 25 pigs
 100 chickens.

*Kyle sends this letter to Commander Sagewald*[/b]

Your Most Honored Sir,

I believe the recent disaster to Mariner's Hold has left the local militia severly undermanned. This undoubtedly would lead to looting and other criminal activity.

I would be honored to be allowed to serve in said militia and help in the training of able bodied men to keep the peace and aid in the rebuilding of Mariner's Hold.

With all due respects,
Kyle Pandorn - Master of the Katana

Spring winds fill the sails of two vessels approaching a new section of the Mariner's Hold pier.  Twin emblems of the blue and white shells and a dwarven hammer grace the hull.  THe cargo piled high on her decks is wood, poles and barrels. She unloads her cargo and makes only a short stay before leaving in the same direction she came.
 
 Materials unloaded:
 
 Wooden Planks : 2000
 Wooden Poles : 120
 Iron Fitting : 250
 Bronze Fittings : 100
 Rope: 100 lengths.

Another cargo vessel flying the banners of Rael sails into view of the port of Mariner's Hold. As it sails towards the docks, its four escorts do not follow it into port.

Once docked, a group of 30 masons and 50 soldiers in Rael livery march off the vessel towards their designated barracks, which shortly thereafter fly the banner of Rael.

An additional 200 sets of Carpenter's Tools and 100 ingots of iron are offloaded as well.

**Argali is dismayed when she hears the latest developments. She endeavours to return to Mariner's Hold. There, she visits the offices of a certain self-styled gnome journalist that she had worked for some four years earlier (if he can be found).

She enquires of the gnome journalist the movements of the Rael masons and particularly the Rael forces. She beseeches him (if he is amenable) to keep close tabs on the movements of the Rael forces, to keep careful note if they should leave (and subsequently reenter) Mariner's Hold.

If required, she is more than willing to provide some funds to facilitate this.**

* a letter with the OrcBashers seal is delivered to the office of the Chamberlain of Mariner's Hold *


Sir or Madam Chamberlain,

Due to recent needs for the city of Mariner's Hold for regular supply of building materials , we of the Orc Bashers guild would like to request a meeting with you and those in charge off the city regarding a proposal .

This proposal is about funding / building , hopefully a few , buildings to aid Mariner's Hold now and in the future with work for it's populace and worked materials that are now needed for the rebuilding .

These buildings would not only provide for a steady flow of material resources for the rebuilding of the city but it would also create economic growth. This growth would come by way of work for those that have become unemployed due to recent events and as the city becomes replenished it could become a city revenue resource for exports to other communities in need of supplies.

We believe this to be of great benefit to the city and would offer our assistance in building a kind of " working village / settlement " . We would also work with local druids to help provide a balance so that nature may continue its course and provide natural healthy resources.

Hoping that this letter finds you and we can set up a meeting to discuss this further , sincerely,

The Orc Bashers.

// If this is approved and needs a GDQ , then we would love to see what time would suit us as players and the GM that can / would run this . Hopefully we can plan this with Minerva since she is the GM in charge off Mariner's Hold .

The Novlar winds once again blow the gales of the coming winter.
 It has been two and a half years now since the wave crashed into the city.  Urgent construction has almost been completed, and the tent communites have shrunk to almost nothing.  Prices for lodging within the city are still outragously high as new boarding houses, inns and taverns construction has taken a backseat to housing the displaced.
 
 Ships unloading supplies from distant lands have become less frequent but the  vessel flying seashells and a blue lightening bolt still makes regular deliveries of wood and metals to the people of the town.
 
 There have been rumors of distant investors interested in starting some small industries outside the city to speed in the recovery process.  Those feeling the pinch of lost jobs and lack of fishing in the winter are hopeful the negotiations go well.
 
 Rael's troops still patrol the city, aiding in the training of guards and soldiers.  The finishing of construction has freed up able bodies to train in the forces protecting Sagewald from the barbarians to the south.

A man Clad in blue and Gold armor has been seen coming from time to time to Mariner's hold, wearing the anhk that identifies him as a knight of Toran.

He is seen in the poor part of the city helping with the reconstruction and giving people words of hope as well as blankets and cloaks.

He is seen as well into one of the government offices, signing documents.

Rumor on the street says tha he was seen some months ago leaving the city with a boy in arms.

[Lance Stargazer]

A messenger arrives to the council building claiming to have a letter to the council. The messenger says that he has information from the Orcbashers guild in hempstead. As he shows the sealed letter to the clerks...
