Brindol
Leaving Kuldera to the southwest, we entered a drier region that should be in full growing season, but the plants were dry. Heard of rumors that beasts travel the road. First two nights we stayed in inns. Zera tells us that his brother Lucien is the one mentioned by the rogue. Following two nights we made camp, then one more inn. We land in Brindol at the end of the sixth day, staying in the “Tired Giant” inn. Town has a population of about 8000, located next to a river, and surrounded by a wall.
We asked a town guard about Thanye, called a King’s Man by the guard, and were told to ask Cpt. Olverth, the captain of the guard. We’re told Thayne took a patrol hunting for orcs northwest past Rhest then down Old North Road a few days ago. He previously went south and found nothing. Guard said Vraath Keep is haunted. Before heading on our way, we left a message for Thayne saying “Wave Echo Cave secure, Orlane is lost, we’ll head to Drellin’s Ferry and Vraath Keep.”
