# Castle Aeravir In which... 1. I win a purse from Huldra 2. I am given the favor of Lady Aeravir 3. And then I rob her blind ## Week 7 Day 2 On the road through the farmlands of Tulith. ## Week 7 Day 3 Easy day on the road. It's kind of nice to be on my own again and not have to worry about feeding so many mouths. Though I do miss my dwarf companions. ## Week 7 Day 4 Castle Huldra is ahead. ## Week 7 Day 5 Make it to the castle. I ask to have an audience with the Baron but am refused. I will try again tomorrow. ## Week 7 Day 6 I encounter the Master of the Household and am put in a position where I must buy his favor or never meet the Baron. 10 gold is not too much to pay. I hope. ## Week 7 Day 7 Finally meet with the Baron! Don't get any men, but he gives me 50 gold, which more than pays for what I had to pay to bribe the master of the household. I think Huldra has given me what it can. Tomorrow I will continue south. ## Week 8 Day 1 - 4 On the road ## Week 8 Day 5 Outside Tulith I meet six mounted warrior monks who charge me 10 gold to pass. Seems most of the Baron's gold may go to bribes. ## Week 8 Day 6 On the road ## Week 8 Day 7 Heavy rains. I catch another cold and am running a fever. ## Week 9 Day 1 Rains clear. Continue on my way. I miss my horse. ## Week 9 Day 2 I should make it to Lullwyn in a couple days. I don't know if I'll make it to Aeravir in time though. ## Week 9 Day 3 - 4 On the road ## Week 9 Day 5 Arrive in Lullwyn. Not even going to stay here the night if I can help it. I must continue straight to Aeravir for help. ## Week 9 Day 6 - Week 10 Day 2 On the road. Crossing the farmlands of Aeravir. ## Week 10 Day 3 Aeravir. This is likely the end of my journey one way or the other. I have mere days before the usurper's army arrives in the north and my kingdom is lost forever. I pay the seneschal a bribe of 30 gold. The last of the Baron's gold. And am told to come back tomorrow. ## Week 10 Day 4 The seneschal escorts me to see Lady Aeravir. She favors me and gives me 80 gold pieces and a nerve gas bomb. This brings me to 300 of the 500 gold I need to raise an army, and only three days to find the remaining 200. I fear I have already failed. ## Week 10 Day 5 Desperate I try to seek out any news or information. I attract the attention of the castle guard. Seven of them to be exact. They give me a look but allow me to pass since I carry the Lady's favor. ## Week 10 Day 6 Taking the Lady's offer to heard, I find another comfier room in the castle. ## Week 10 Day 7 I steal 200 gold from the castle and run away in the night, fleeing into the surrounding farmland. I hate to break Aeravir's trust like this, after she was so kind to me. I will pay her back tenfold once I have reclaimed my throne. Now I will go raise my army and take back my kingdom.
