Today I did some exploring to the south, north of the Hammersong pass that leads to the Poisonwoods.
There where a lot of kobolds there, and a cave they came from, but I didn't enter there today.
South of the kobolds place, the road split. At the split is a sign that says Hammersong to the south
and Temple to the west. I went to have a look at this Temple. On the way to the Temple I met a couple
of Ogres. They attacked me at once, even though they are way bigger than me, I managed to defeat them.
My training must be giving off results.
I found the Temple gates, and when I approached them a figure apparead out of nowhere. It called itself
the gatekeeper. At the request of entering the Tempel, it responded with the cryptic message that I need
to have good in my heart, and Andarus will open the way. Since I got no luck in entering the Temple, I
went on to explore the area around the Temple.
On lower ground, on the south side of the Temple, I found a tradeing post. And close to the post was a
little port where a ship lay ancered. To get to the port, I had to go through a cave that is used for
storage.
The lady in the tradeing post told a tale of her supplies stolen by giants in the Hammersong pass. I
agreed to help her retrive her gods. But since I don't have much chance against a Giant, and no way
can defeat six of them, it will have to wait until I can get some companions.
I went down to the ship and entered it. I found the captain inside, and he also had something he needed
done. His task was easier though. All I had to do to please him, was to get some tree sap from Cobblewall
Inn, so he could fix his ship, that was damaged in a pirate attack.
Cobblewall Inn is located on the other side of Hammersong, but the road there is safe for the most of the
time (as long as a giant don't deside to take a look at who is passing). This time I was lucky and it didn't
take me long to go to Cobblewall, buy the sap, and get back to the ship.
That task done, I returned to the Websters landing Inn to get some sleep.
