Dawn Rising

Citizens troubled by the arson at the Yew home of Lady Dawn gathered tonight in Britain. They traveled to her home to discover that there was now someone to speak to concerning the crime. A guard named Lars had been station at the nearby Court of Truth.

However, before they could head there a silver cloaked seer named Adelais revealed himself and stated that he knew this group would be looking for Lady Dawn and that he had message to be delivered to her. His 'order' wished to speak to her about an important matter later in the week, he wished her to meet them at a special location.

After taking down the message, we dashed off to Lars who was located in the first floor courtroom at the Court of Truth. He informed the seekers that the local farmers had seen an 'orange man' fleeing from the scene of the arson towards the moongate. Three pieces of evidence had been discovered around the blazing house: a letter to Dawn from Sherry the mouse, a strange fire horn with the words chaos and fire inscribed on it, and a Montor Lava Stone necklace.

A rush to the Yew moongate followed, retracing the steps of the man's escape to the ruined city of Montor in Ilshenar. After fighting from the Chaos gate through the fiery denizens of the ruins, Charbon the Pyromancer appeared and led the group on a merry chase. Once cornered, the fire obsessed mage divulged that he had been hired by two men wearing heavy plate armor. The Enforcers immediately came to mind, perhaps a direct link between the arson and the duplicitous Casca?

Running with that hunch, Blackthorn's Keep was the next stop. There, we found damning evidence on the floor of Casca's bedchamber. Within a box engraved with 'Problems to Solve', rests two letters between Dawn and Sherry along with an admission from Enforcer Xavier that he executed a man for a nonexistent crime. Yet another senseless murder in furtherance of Casca's mad scheme to subjugate our realm in the name of the despicable Shadowlords.

Within the letters lay the current location of both Dawn and Sherry. Dawn had gone on a pilgrimage to the Shrine of Justice, while Sherry had set off to hide amongst the tomes of Terort Skitas in Ilshenar.

Heading to the Shrine, we located Dawn meditating on the mantra of Justice. Recent events had been weighing heavily upon her, and she was once more eager to wield her family sword in defense of Britannia.

Sherry's well being was her first priority, so we headed through the Valor gate and into Ilshenar. We found that Terort Skitas overrun with Pauper's agents, Casca obviously wanted Dawn to walk into a trap and hoped Sherry would be a casualty as well. Fortunately, the group deftly dealt with the agents and determined that Sherry had escaped to a safe location.

A great Hero of the Realm has returned to Britannia's aid, and once more Casca's treachery has been exposed. Dawn helped to rid Sosaria of the last would-be-leader gone rogue; we must rally to her side to help bring down the corrupt Casca.

Queen Dawn, anyone?

DOWN WITH CASCA!

DEATH TO THE SHADOWLORDS!

LONG LIVE BRITANNIA!
