The Bridge

This refers to a strategic bridge south of Braerk.
The track from Braerk joins the main highway almost at the bridge, the bridge itself is of solid stone construction and looks solid. Bazin and Wun do notice that there have obviously been some engineering works carried out on the bridge recently and so you would surmise that the Alveran force has some means of rapidly destroying the construction if required. On the far side, the bank slopes up steeply and is topped with a 15 foot high wooden palisade extending out around 200 yards to either side of the highway. At least 4 ballistae can be seen mounted on the walls. As the party crosses the bridge, Gohde makes another signal with his hands to the sentries on the walls.
On the far side of the river, there are a number of stone filled wagons, obviously intended to roll into place as a barricade, if or when needed. At a guess, it would seem that the bridge garrison has been expanded somewhat, to around 600-800 soldiers. Already, tents have been supplemented with hastily built houses, forming a shanty town of camp followers and hangers on, possibly with a few refugees sprinkled into the mix.
==Ranlark==
The (human) colonel in charge of the garrison.
Vinmira comments: "Ranlarke is a great soldier, and you won’t hear many under his command complainin’ about him, but he is a bit unimaginative.”Day 6a - Lunch with Vinmira
Probably does not have Clearsight
==Wynagh==
An Ariel of unknown rank, though probably Ranlarke's second in command. He carries an Avatar pendant with a Sun motif - probably a Universal holy symbol.
He asks the party what they make of the (ie his) pendant….. pretty much everyone simply sees it as a pendant, although Wun somehow finds it comforting and warm whilst Bazin has a slight discomfort.Road Reconnaissance – Day 6: The Bridge
He is a Cleric of Universal:
Wynagh is the bes’ person to ask ‘bout preventing a corpse bein’ animated or the like – him being a Priest of Universal.”
Probably does have Clearsight as he recognised the important of the pendant.
