Kefararidu

The world of Kefararidu contains a continent called Emoth.

On the Continent is a city called Westrom, which is home to the largest population of humans following the Great War, ~800 souls left out of ~1000 following the genocide.

Chury is a port town 2 days from Westrom, a rather large port with about 48k residents. Chury trades with the Elven Kingdom of Msagraoth and gnomes of Toppinmire to the SE of Msagroth. The guard commander is commander Aryver Longman. Malemir is the mayor of Chury; he is a purple tiefling. There is a massive tavern in Chury called the Mouse Trap. The owner and keep is a Large black male tabaxi named Galice who has a large scar over his right piercing green eye.


Msagroth the kingdom of the elves in the south west one of the largest kingdoms on Emoth home to around 2 million elves and completely surrounded by a massive maple forest that spans most of the south western edge of Emoth their main exports are wood, and sap from the maple trees. They are the protectors of this massive forest and they have an alliance with both Chury and Toppingmire. Msagroth is constantly at war with the drow kingdom that lives on the island cluster that's just off the south western coast of Emoth called the Gloom rock.


The year is 200 A.K. (After Kriegsmaschine). The Great war ended around 180 A.K. Humans began keeping record of their histories to preserve their culture around -50 A.K. meaning the great war would end some 230 years after this point. This is the history we have so far.


12/2/24 recap
Tark landed ashore with Merlyn south of Chury, after stowing the boat and equipping himself the two met up with a pair of Halfling City guard of Chury, they accompanied the guerd to the gates where they were welcomed in. The gate guards advised them on lodging, The Mouse trap was reccommended, but Tark also asked a visible drunk (morning) where he might find a dive bar, The Dusty Hallow accross town is cheap. 

They gained lodging at the Mouse Trap and after a short rest they got breakfast. During breakfast they met Tamara, a Fairy, they decided to team up for work as Tark and Merlyn's pockets were thin. The keeper, Galice, had posted on the job board a task for delivery. After inquiring it was to take 2 casks of booze to a Blue Dragonborn named Donrien "Uncle Donny" who is a traveling merchant reportedly near Westrom. Ther was also a wanted poster they had already been looking at which led them to meet Tamara to kill or capture a sentient green slime that had killed a few of the city guard. Last seen he was leaving Chury towards Westrom with a Blue Dragonborn, unnamed.

Afterwards they ran into a Dwarven Palidin and decided to team up as a holy man might be handy in dealing with this slime. He was with in. They also ran into a halfling Druid and added her to the party.

After getting a cart for the casks and a Mule (Dwarf paid for Mule, cart is borrowed from Galice), they got some potions, bolts, and a club and headed out. 

The road was generally uneventful. There was a gnarled tree beast that followed them for a day and when confronted it seemed the creature was concerned with the protection of the surrounding forest. The druid helped assure the twig-thing Tark dubbed "Groot", that we were no threat to the forest. It was unclear if there was something else somewhere that was cause for concern regarding the forest health. They kept on.

The next night (2nd watch again) some leopard-snake abomination came a creeping shortly after a shady elf-cleric walked quietly into camp. The the fortune of the party the cleric was handy in dealing with the monster who met a fatal end being cleaved in two by Tark's Greatsword.

The creature had swallowed 20gp and 5cp and a dagger. Tark put it all in to a bucket of "Party loot", this loot later helped secure lodging in Westrom. Good nap.

Before reaching Westrom they ran into a Caravan of Wandering Merchants with a question mark symbol on their banners. The group is know widely on Emoth and is comprised of a fraction of the remaining human population on this world. Some 25 of their members are human, other races are also among them. We saw an Orc and a Tiefling if memory serves. They asked about Uncle Donny, word is that he's in the area of the Westrom Ruins. Conveniently a couple party members recalled a job regarding a Party that had yet to return from the same ruins. Could we be so lucky as to locate Donny, the missing party, and the slime-fella in the Ruins??

There was one more job on the board in the Mouse trap that we noted... The Ice Fang mountain passage was problematic. Much colder than usual and thus impassable. Could be some unnatural cause or something.
