21st of Elient - Return from the Mountains

Several Regulators returned from a daylong journey up Pegasus Pass this morning. A bit harried from their trip, they nonetheless returned with the Dolberry Root coveted by Rayod Enin the town Alchemist.

Seraph, Brannic, Vig and Jode also went to investigate the mysterious magical device that Sisivril mentioned to them last night. In the middle of the river which runs through Grey's Deep, they found a small, arch-shaped, device (approximately 10 inches in diameter) located in the center of the river at the bottom. Since the river is 30 feet across and about 15 feet deep in the center they are unable to get a closer look at what exactly it is.

No one is sure what exactly this device does but Seraph is able to detect significant Conjuration (Teleportation) magic energy emanating from it.

18th of Elient - Journey to see Nimbus

As Seraph and Rohavic collect their gear in the bright early morning hours, Brannic walks up beside them and sets his dusty pack on the ground.

"Sounds like it's just the three of us on this one. Vig was mumbling about needing more time to work on some armor and weapons and Jode is busy with his new baby Griffon."

Brannic tips his hat up and scratches his head.

"I'm not sure what Jellen is up to. He seems to have disappeared these past couple of days."

17th of Elient - Jode Oldens new Baby

Today the Olden house was the scene of a flurry of activity this morning.

The Griffon egg which Jode had recovered from the body in the forest began to hatch in the early morning hours. The local wrangler, Stephan Heseril was called in to assist in the bonding process and to help explain the proper rearing for a Griffon.

"It is important that you be one of the first creatures the newborn sees, " Stephan whispered as he moved Jode into place.

"The baby will look to you to provide it food and shelter in its first month." Stephan slides over a plate filled with grub worms before he continues to speak. "After a month the baby will look to you as it's parent and will be more trusting of you."

Stephan stands up to stretch while watching the Griffon create tiny cracks in the side of the egg. It wouldn't be too long before he or she is able to break through. "Taking care of this little one will be difficult and time consuming, even more so with your position in the community. If you do not want to keep it, I would be more than happy to purchase it from you. Likewise if you want it trained in as a mount, I can provide that service for you as well. It would be an expensive effort however, and would cost 1,500 GP"

Stephan looks to Jode to see what his decision may be regarding the newborn Griffon.
