Notes of the Navigator
Written by Artemi (Sean)
We finally stumbled our way out of that damned darkness. We are at the outskirts of the mine and after some recon, we found that this is certainly a mine for 707. Armed guards, slave labor, I now have no reason to hesitate... We were too late, another explosion, this one is different, not intentional. Panic. Confusion.
This explosion made monsters of the unfortunate souls being forced to this labor, these creatures make quick work of the guard detail (they seemed nothing more than well-paid thugs but, we cannot be reckless) we cannot allow these monsters to leave this place...
I've truly lost my edge... I was brought low in the fight.. I have to do better. We were able to save some of the workers... Not nearly enough. Too many innocent dead. Do better. You are better than this. YOU. MUST. DO. BETTER.
One of the workers we managed to save is important to Aer. An older man. Similar elven lineage. Must be her father. We travel to Thetchery with the injured in tow. We set up camp outside of the town Aer and Guy bring her father to the town's healer. I will follow, I will die before I let any more harm befall this man. I will not let Aer feel the pain I felt. I can keep him safe. I need wine...
