Theft of the Moon, Ep015 Pt4, The One Ring

… approaching The Falrock, the heroes found a very un-heroic situation, where the Sickle of the Moon had been stolen because there were, there, as there are, now, too many in the world who are without.  Cenric the Archer had stolen the Sickle for his people, to be able to feed them, by giving the artifact to Guthred the Viglunding, which would have secured him a place closer to the leader of that faction.  Instead, he fell beneath Norin’s assault and was, then, hauled before the Thane of Stonyford Village for trial and punishment.  The Sickle was returned, Cenric and his people were able to keep the money and food doled out by our heroes, and all ended well.  It doesn’t hurt to get paid handsomely for success, either.

Thus ended our first attempt at playing, the one-shot-that-lasted-five-shots, instead, and though the feedback was positive, I’m certain I could do better with 1st Edition.
