We were sitting in the Gilded Horseshoe, an inn in the town of Longsaddle. We're just traveling through the town on our way back to Waterdeep when an airship landed in the town square! We were preparing to sit and eat dinner with our new friend Gowyk Cardasz, a herder and tradesman from nearby, and to discuss recent events. We've only been in Longsaddle for a few hours, though our plans were to stay in town for a few days so I would have time to cast a few spells and clear up a few loose ends.
We heard a commotion and headed to the town square to check it out, when we saw this huge airship decending from the sky. A self-important looking wizard, going by the name of Pengarth, the captain of the airship and a Mage of the First Order, greets a man by the name of Ardanac Harpell. He is a character, let me tell you! Gorax and I have had an encounter with him, earlier in the day and he seems to be the most quixotic human that I have ever met. He is confrontational one moment and is handing out items from the Harpell family shop for free, the next!
In any case, we're in the town square and a young lady appears from the airship. A young lady, Ember Dietifeci, got off the airship and said hello. It turns out that she is an wizardess, an adventurer, and a free spirit traveling to Waterdeep aboard this ship. She is a Mage of the Third Order of Halarahh, the first that I have met from that order. She may, indeed, be the first person I have met from Halruua, at all. The tales that I have heard make it sound like that country is ordinarily very secluded. She is very interested in seeing the world outside of her country, however, and wants us to show her around in Waterdeep. Who knows, maybe she'll join our merry band!
We'll be traveling back to Waterdeep with her and her companions, so we'll see what transpires!
