Who would like to fill out the recap based on their PC's perspective?

Anybody else?

"Protect me ... Dook?"

—Caitlyn, lying on the floor being protected by Dook.

Leaving Corvis

Caitlyn: While we were leaving the city of Corvis with carts of "wine" in tow, an old woman whom we nearly didn't recongize approached us. Turns out that she was Lorna, the wife of ... someone we met. She seems sweet and likes to make little totems, that are at the very least effect at preventing Dook from "borrowing" stuff from her.

And of course that scrappy lil' lad Leto managed to find us. Seems that he—like all boys—really like to spend time in the woods.

We camped about an hour away from Fort Rhyker, to ensure that we were far enough to not encounter any patrols.

Jamison: Not much happened, though the party did get news that the fort was occupied by something (Not 100% clear on the news) and that we were to do some investigation and delay any enemy force we could find.

Fort Rhyker

Scorched battlefield. Thralls (skeletons) were collecting bones for a thrall army.

Jamison: We fought and defeated a few combat thralls with little trouble. Many of the Thralls turned out to be slave that were worthless in combat. Also, Lorna's charms actually worked! We'll have to buy some of them for Caitlyn and Dook.

Inside

Explored inside. Stole a spyglass. Combat.

Jamison: Got into a long fight with several thralls. I got brutalized, Caitlyn was knocked out, Lorna and Tolmek were also injured.

Found Alexia's room.

Jamison: And white dresses, one with a tear in it. As if we needed more evidence.

Leto got exploded.

Jamison: Luckily he survived, as it was the first of two bombs that hurt him. It took two potions to heal him and we set off the second bomb without a hitch. The bulk of the Thralls are trapped on the other side of a chasm, which will at least delay them. I wasn't looking forward to having a rope tied around my waist so that I could demolish any last bits of the bridge. (We shouldn't have broken the chains to lift the town side of the lower bridge until after we lifted the bridge.
