Chanter's Board (Act II)

## Darkspawn Attacks

While at the Rushriver Bridge, Minhra picked out a notice left on the Chanter's board, warning of attacks by darkspawn amongst the roads to the south of the city. The Chantry has thus put a bounty of 10 guilders per head of hurlock, genlock, or sharlock, 50 per greater darkspawn, and 100 for ogres. The poster comes with a series of directions to the most recent attacks. One such location would be on the way toward the camp of Clan Harillemir.

You encountered another such location on your way back from the Singing Man's Cove, where you slew a number of hurlocks and genlocks, as well as an ogre. These heads were then retrieved and delivered by Akaraad to the Chantry.

### Session Twenty-Six [2021.05.22]

Upon checking the Chanters' Board a second time, you discovered that the bounties for darkspawn had increased. The Chantry now offers 20 guilders for lesser darkspawn, 100 per greater darkspawn, and 200 per ogre. Noelle surmised that this might have been a way for the new Grand Cleric, Leonelle, to pay her Wardens under the table.

In addition, a number of locations where the darkspawn had been spotted were listed:

* The farmlands by the north road out of Tantervale
* Mellock's Rest, a hill southwest of the city
* Singing Man's Cove, the same smuggling site that you have been to before

### Session Twenty-Eight [2021.06.04]

The party ventured northward into the farmlands, encountering a group of Grey Wardens as they did so (see the quest log for *The Deep Singer*). In total, they have the heads of:

* 3 sharlocks (shrikes)
* 3 genlocks
* 2 hurlocks
* 1 ogre

For a current total of 360 guilders' worth of dead darkspawn.

*This is as far as this quest has currently progressed.*

## Society of Helping Hands

While at the Rushriver Bridge, Minhra picked out a notice left on the Chanter's board advertising a town hall meeting organized by the "Society of Helping Hands". The poster reads:

### Session Eleven - 2021.01.09

While investigating the Lantern Knight, the party encountered an impromptu rally of the Society of Helping Hands in the burned-out remnants of the southern row of the Grand Quarter, where Akaraad had previously set fire to the Lantern Knight's home. The speaker seemed to be rabble-rousing against foreigners, elves, and the Ghantours.

### Session Twenty-Six [2021.05.22]

After visiting the Chanter's Board at the Ducal Plaza on the 5th of Justinian, the party discovered that the Society of Helping Hands had now set their meetings to occur weekly at Reidwill's Tavern, at sundown, on the 8th of every month.

*This is as far as this quest has currently progressed.*

## The Pre-Tourney

Displayed prominently on a large scroll in somewhat haphazard writing:

"Are you a Knight of renown that missed the Battle on the Rushriver Bridge?

Are you tired of Sitting around and Waiting?

Do you seek to Challenge yourself against the other Rising Prospects of chivalry?

Come join the Tourney-afore-the-Tourney, where we test ourselves in preparation for trials to come!

We await You at the Pavilion of Ser Davric Van Markham in the Ducal Plaza!"

Underneath are written the words "All Are Welcome!", although they are scratched out and replaced with "Knights of the List Are Welcome!"

*The Pre-Tourney concluded with Nygard Aster as the victor.*
