I have collected two promises of Wayward Farmer's, one in person and one gifted by Miel.

I shall see these turned into the House of the Morning.

A report from Alethra Sands.

Beloved High Lord Belon,
Knights of the Lights

Per request of the bishop, I excorted the Mayor of Immersea back to Arabel, after she had come to request extentions on her many loans. The Counsellors spoke of Fishmen attacking in the Hullack, and believed it could be related to the many missing trade vessels. They spoke of a map, leading to some old caches of weaponry and fish, and believed it may be related also.

I offered the mayor that I take up residence in Immersea, and see if my presence could root out whatever is causing the delays and mising shipments. She told me she could not pay me, and so I offered her a coin, had her return it to me, and informed her that any ally of Eveningstar could always expect our aid when needed.

I let the mayor and her retinue continue onwards to Tilverton, no doubt seeking extentions on loans from Lord Misrim also, and I have ventured south, and taken up residence in Immersea for the next few days, as I investigate and see if His light can illuminate any troubles.
I have had to set up camp on the outskirts, as my... unique bloodline drew unwanted attention at the tavern. I shall purchase a helmet, perhaps that can solve the issue for the time I am here.

I shall do a full inspection of the village, form a report, and deliver it in person before the sun sets on the tenday.

In my opinion she would do well among our ranks, consider this my recommendation for her lift to Dawnsquire.

A simple note is made in his journal of thoughts

Brutus of the Greywatch seems to have little love for the Ravens. Told me he'd lend his support in any action against them if requested.

Dawnbrother Aland Signe has died, along with Warden James Rawen of Tilverton and Luckbringer Grete Moonsilver, Councilor fighting the orc horde of Zugak.

Aland was a good man and will not be forgotten.

@William Thatcher Report on the fall of Zuguk and the Restoration of the Spirit:

On this day, a collection of adventurers, councilors, and representatives from Tilverton and Eveningstar set off to conduct the ritual. With it, we had hoped to divine the location of the spirit that this gem, this "heart", belonged too. As they often do, our plans changed and we all went to the ritual location. The ritual itself was a success, and we discovered the location of the spirit, deep within the forest of eyes. As we traveled there, the party was attacked by all manner of corrupted creature and plant. Nature itself had been warped to stop us. Even the very water rose to claim us.

After hard fought battles we eventually made it and came across a figure that had a gaping hole in its chest. The "heart" was returned to this spirit, though it asked for more to repair what had been broken. Grete, Ethel, and Miel paid the costs. Both Miel and Ethel aged, seemingly giving up years of their life. Sadly, Grete's cost was too much. Ethel also paid though it seemed like her mind was the price. She doesn't even remember who she is anymore...

On our way back, we were blockaded. Zuguk and his orcan army came to find us, and take the "heart" for himself. To say it was a hard fought battle would be an understatement. There were countless orcs, and countless more bodies on the floor. The sand turned red. Zuguk himself barred the way, and attacked us in a frenzy. He too however, was eventually brought low by our concentrated efforts, thank the gods. However, once the dust had settled, three more among our number had fallen. Rawen of Tilverton, Aland of Eveningstar, and a halfling. One last trial awaited us however, as some...other worldly being appeared before us.

Seemingly wanting to cause more chaos and strife, it offered us a.."reward" for our victory. We could bring one of the deceased back from the dead, or restore Ethel's memories. A vote was held, with a tie between the halfling and Rawen. The tie ended up being decided by a duel between mister Cambrian and mister Shepard. The latter one, and so the halfling was brought back.

The final casualty count:

The warlord Zuguk and his orcan host

Numerous eyeballs, beholders, and monsters

Rawen of Tilverton

Aland of Eveningstar

And Ethel who is but an echo of their former self

The results of our actions today are...inconclusive. We can only pray we did the right thing, and that the land will begin to heal itself.

Seems someone's watching my actions "A beacon of light toiling in the north, fighting bandits ever with a bird's eye on his back" to paraphrase.

Few men ever died of threats.
