## Mission Notes

Arriving at the guild, Beefington informs the crew that the guild has received messages from Ellen of Deep river and Vormorn of The Bluff about strange ongoings in the Warrens.

Taking Hamer and the cart outside our adventurers travel through the mountain pass to Deep river. Finding Ellen they enquire about what's been going on. Ellen explains that a bunch of the miners have been going through hard times and mining hasn't been what it used to be since the mine got shut because of a demon in the mine. With those problems some of the more disaffected men had turned to going to the warrens and collecting something that was leaving them dazed and out of sorts.

Having come across Dragonash before, some of our party suspect there is something Dragonash related happening in the Warrens. Collecting some info from Deepriver's tavern, The Miner's Cut, they discover there are border houses near South Warren where some of the Miner's go. Heading out in the morning our adventurers approach the border house only to be fired on from inside. After a number of warning shots and some failed attempts to make shots on the building with fire arrows. Our adventurers raid the building dispatching everyone inside. Searching the building they find a horn of silent alarm and a hatch into an underground tunnel (or Warren).

Travelling down the tunnel they reach a section underground South Warren, noting that the tunnels extend out to the mountains and in the opposite direction towards the North Warrens and Glimmergate. Travelling up the tunnel in the direction of North Warren they discover some men up ahead. Disguising 3 members of the group they approach appearing and performing convincingly like members of the border house. Unfortunately less convincing, was our adventurers explanation of events, leading to a shadowy figure commanding the bandits to blow the tunnel collapsing it and flooding our adventurers side with river water.

Heading back to the tunnel section beneath South Warren, our adventurers check a bunch of the hatches, eventually choosing to go up through a store room in a masoned building. Finding general bandit supplies they enter up through the building, eventually finding a bunch of thugs/bandits in the front room. Battling with the thugs it became apparent that one was much more proficient than the rest, with many easy pickings, the leader began landing some devastating blows before being surrounded and overwhelmed. With all the bandits killed, the room was searched with our party finding a numbers of ledgers and a key charm on the bandit leader, which was used to open a magically locked room downstairs. A room filled with a number of magical items and supplies of Dragonash as well as a number of other documents.

LEDGERS & DOCUMENTS

Information is gleaned that shipments have been making their way out of the mountains, through the Warrens to Glimmergate and onwards from there on boats to the East Ridings. Marks are made in the ledger for deliveries to CF and HP in Glimmergate to Warehouse B on Dock 7.
