From The world of Yarel

The campaign begins around mid-autumn in the city of Jestle.

[edit] The lost caravan

The party met Lieutenant Bren who told them that the armies are gathering as part of the march to the oriental continent:

• The armies are at a turning point in the gravestrike war
  • A key outpost has been taken from the Undead
  • A surgical strike now could recover a large amount of territory in the oriental continent
• A caravan of crucial equipment, weapons and armour has sent word that it is in trouble
• The Thieves of Jestle may be able to help the party out where it comes to dealing with the bandits to the south.

[edit] Arcane delivery

The party also met a man who introduced himself as the businessman Brandor Fess. He was trying to get the help of Wesley the Wise but was turned down. The party accepted a quest from him to deliver a box of magical reagents to a mage in Dekov named Rylor Bess, a member of The Shadow Masters mage guild. They have been told that they have three weeks to deliver the box to Rylor and that he would pay them 400 pieces of platinum for their trouble. Brandor has given them a contract to state all of this, it is being held by Smilie.

[edit] On the road

The party set out for the lost caravan just an hour after their meeting with Bren. This made it about 3 in the afternoon as they left Jestle.
