Upon receiving the first vision that laid the foundations for a quest the prince has set out on, he found Emilios hanging around chatting with the soldiers and talking up a fair game. Laughter, music, and wine flowed freely as the prince went about his solemn duty. The prince recognizes how good a talker Emilios is and asked him if he wanted to join him. Emilios never turning down an opportunity for a good adventure agreed. His wife Versi was silent on the matter when Emilios brought it up. She agreed to let him go as long as he returns to visit every once in a while. Emilios traveled with Stephan for some time collecting the other members of the retinue and saw a far bit of thylea.

### **Act 1. The Coming Storm**

#### *The Hunt of the Great Boar*

The retinue stopped for the night at The sour vineyard, a tavern located at a crossroads between the three great cities: Aresia, Estonia, and Mytros. The party talked plans about how to deal with the boar that they would have to face in the morning. The idea was to lay a trap and force it to charge into set log pikes. The party not use to one another or what skills they can bring to the fight thought it was best to play it safe in the coming battle. In the morning before setting out the vineyard was beset by a griffon looking for a quick meal amongst the horses. It was dispatch quickly and the party began it trek into the forest to find the great boar. It didn't take long for them to find a trail of destruction that was left behind by the boar leading the party to a cave. The clearing it sat in was large enough for the party to start setting the trap. As the party began to build the set pikes, Moros being the bravest amongst them sneaked forward to get a better eye on the creature.

Unfortunately for him, he was not stealthy enough. The beast caught eye of Moros and charge the small tiefling. By the time everyone knew what was going on Moros sailed twenty feet and landed dead in front of the group. The party leaped into action drawing the beast into the spikes pinning it in place. Kyrah who joined the retinue brought Moros back to life with a scroll while the rest of the party began to wail on the beast. Atreus and Dunamis shoved the cart full of hay they had underneath the beast while Emilios lit it on fire thus sealing the fate of the beast. The Retinue celebrated their first victory against the great beast and return home with it corpse to prove their worth. The retinue celebrated the night away with a feast and wine drunk on the sweet taste of victory. It was the sweet taste they wouldn't again taste for a long time
