==First Day with the Clans==
The party settle down to doing 'good deeds' among the clan-folk, while Joshua tries to encourage them to consider attacking the Ghoulagabbans - an idea that the Maratasen Shanah worshippers are all for, but cooler heads prevail among the rest of the clan-folk.
The clan-folk consist of:
* Snake Clan (Centaur)
* Wolverine Clan (Centaur)
* Razorclaw Clan (Maratsen) - their Speaker survived, but lost his familiar/totem/avatar causing his current incapacity
* Sharktooth Clan (Orc)
Other than the incapacitated Speaker, the other notable individuals are two Shamans (Snake and Wolverine), an apprentice Shaman, one Listener and two Knights (ie war-chiefs). The Speaker of the HawkClan (Drovan) who had joined the expeditionary force had died, and nothing had been heard of Swanfeather (erstwhile speaker of the Ariel Fairwind Clan).
We learned that StarStorm was flown directly South after it was taken.
Quercuis was advised not to fly Khurak anywhere near the battle sites - there are more of the flying lizard familiar type things patrolling, but higher level (including some invisible ones). It was also noted that no Elven familiars have been seen. Word is that the Elves and Ghoulagabbans are still in stalemate.
==Next Day - Excitement in the camp== 
About mid-day, there is some obvious gossip and excitement around the camp - but no-one will speak about it within our hearing. In the evening, the Speaker recovers.
==Next Day - Return of the Thunder Clan==
We hear that two Elven dromonds have landed forces at Point Ganeraine  (a town to the North-North-East of Gartin). Clearly if they extend fortification down to the existing line, they will completely cut off all the Ghoulagabban forces (Undead/Orcs/Trolls) between them and Willston - leaving the (Wild) Giants to the West of their line.
In the evening 3 Clan Giants walk into the camp from the West, and overnight, a couple of hundred more Clan Giants come into the camp.
==Next Day - Bez Drock RIP==
We are now questioned properly and thoroughly - ie each party member called individually for a full debriefing - with a lot of questions about Far Haven (both our own experiences, and what we have heard) and about Saratak. We all cooperate fully.
What we learn is:
* The Elves have completed their line from Gartin to Point Ganeraine, and with control of both the estuary and the sea, the trapped Ghoulagabbans are under pressure. The clan-folk think the Elves have the situation well under control.
* The Giants are from the Thunder Clan. There were thought to be only 10 of them left - yet we now see hundred of clan fighters. It transpires that some had gone into voluntary exile into the Void, and have now apparently returned.  Thankfully, none seem to have been corrupted by it - or at least, Brokev doesn't think so.
* They now believe that Saratak is truly dead. 
* the Thunder Clan were told by Saratak to come and rescue the remains of the Clan-folk who attacked StarStorm. (We are still left wondering why Saratak ordered the attack on StarStorm in the first place: It did stretch the Ghoulagabban forces somewhat, diverting some of their forces away from Far Haven - but this still seems a bit of a thin reason.)
* There is great excitement among the clan-folk at the return of the Thunder Caln - they are seen as the 'Clan of Clans', and their return may herald the rebirth of 'old' Wildwood. They is even talk of having a new supreme Ur-Khan.
That evening, a cry goes up from one of the Knights/Warriors - Bez Drock has died. That night, there is a big wake for him in which much is drunk and many exaggerated stories told: The party joins in fully with this, telling their own (suitably embellished) stories about Bez Drock. Some Giants also attend the wake.
The party is now given the choice of returning West with the strengthened clan-folk, or staying put in the hope of crossing the force of Giants between them and the Elven lines.
There will be no Zoom session next week (ie 16th Nov).
