Our story begins in the foul lair of a mad sorcerer. Deep within the bowls of a cavern a cell made of rusty iron bars a lone figure rests lumped upon a pile of rags. She waits for the only other being in this place to deliver her ration of slop, a small goblin called Briggs. The master is gone and has been for sometime and the food has gradually become worse now to little more than watery bone broth with a piece of moldy bread.

You exit into the foot of a mountain in a Forested area, there is a path that winds down through the trees. From the position of the sun through the canopy you can guess it is early afternoon.

What do you do?

You do not notice any thing on the trail, it just looks like an old goat trail

Topanga runs down the hill, and continues to do so until something happens.

After about 40 minutes of hustling down the trail you come to a road a bit short of breath and take a moment to pause

You know exactly where you are on the map, this is the 'High Road' if you head east it should take you to Lastwall which should be roughly 20 miles away. The other direction leads into the Northern Ranges where more savage tribes live.

You also know that it is common for Bandits to inhabit this area, but large animals are somewhat rarer near the road because of poaching , there are plenty of rabbits and small game though.

A Farmstead about 7 miles north along the road of Lastwall is the last inkling of friendly civilization.

The farmstead seems to be the closest so Topanga walks there.

Elk = 11+6
Ano = 14+2

A giant beast with huge horns comes trampling out of the forest. A bloody arrow protrudes from its neck. The Elk is about 100 feet into the forest on one side of the road. Behind him you see a little black faced man chasing it.

The Little man closes in on the creature and looses another arrow, this one glows with a blue light.

Topanga moves 10 feet towards the elk and throws a smoke pellet at it. Then uses Rage
