So I figure I'd just come out and ask....who in the guild placed the rack....Mostly to thank you....and secondly because we probably want to put it in the torture room.....

[Signed,]

It would appear those savage shamans out in the shire have begun constructing Obelisks ontop of the pentagrams. This activity so close to Cove Proper is a security risk. To this end The Grenadiers would like Scouts to move out into the shire and document the activity of these shamans and to report all that they find to The Grenadiers. The Church has become worried of these savages intent, So this is an order not a suggestion.

We don't need something as pathetic as a few savages putting Cove at risk. If we find them to be enough of a threat we shall march out and destroy them....

Lucas Drachen, Junior Grenadier

[Beat The Orcs? Nay, Embarrass them!]

Well then, Kid's shown interest in being a Grenadier. I suppose this will be a way to test your metal Kid, Don't think I am going easy on you. Grenadiers eat nails for breakfast and shite fire. We'll make a man out of you yet!


Beat The Orcs? Nay, Embarrass them!

"Alright Kid, Grenadiers aren't the unstoppable force they are because of their armor. We put all of our trust into our fellow soldiers. I want you to prove you can trust your fellow soldier and that they can trust you."

Task:
Lead a group of guardsman into Cove's Orc Fort wearing no armor. Battle your way through the fort till you arrive at the docks. Kill at least two of the larger brutes before making your way back to The Barracks. Remember to heal your comrades and vice versa.

Honor The Fallen Sergeant, AKA Valentine's Day

"Vince Valentine, a Well known Grenadier Sergeant. Valentine's day is coming up soon and I feel we should honor him in some way. No, You're not laying flowers on his grave, You're going to Go get the Trophy that got him his position as a Grenadier!"

Task:
Take a force of guardsman to The Dungeon of Ice. Enter The Dungeon and take on The Frozen Ogre Lords that live within it. Bring back at least two of their frozen clubs as a Trophy. Keep one and place the other in The Church's Graveyard after saying a small prayer for Valentine, For The Avatar.

Grenadierized and Finalized

"You wanted to be a Grenadier at one time Cowin, This final task is to be completed only after you have performed the other two..You will seek out a Grenadier to show you the ropes in Combat. You will duel with them and get tips from them and learn a little about our Style. I don't expect you to beat any of us Cowin, But if you manage to I can assure you'll be one step closer to being accepted by The Squad."

Task:
Seek out a Grendier. Ask them to duel you on the barracks roof and ask them for pointers in combat. Report on what you learned.

"Don't dissappoint me Cowin, Remember these arms are not so easily earned. Many have died trying. Get your arse up to Junior then we can begin discussing your entrance into The Grenadiers."

The Task:
Heading straight from Parade, The Army in it's Glory took off to The Pass of Karnaugh to trounce through it's dangerous passageways. Travelling through the forests to the western entrance we faced many creatures. Titans and Golden Ettins being the brunt of it, As well as one Demon Tree. We soon approached the entrance to The Fortress of Karnaugh.


"The Entrance is not as guarded as it once was"

The Army smashed through Karnaugh with more ease than we once did. Teamwork was well inspired. Because they would be shot if they didn't work together.

Suffering only a few injuries, a recruit with a stubbed toe and a Scout with nausea. We made it through The Fortress without a single soldier losing ONE piece of equipment.


"Likeling the only sketch you will see Post Karnaugh where everyone is still in uniform"

Satisfied with our successful Exit. We assumed The Infamous "Covian Diamond" formation before hoofing it back to The Compassion Moongate and returns to Cove.


"Slightly Less Infamous Then The Smiley Formation"

The Result:

Gold: 50,000

Deaths: 0

Injuries: 1 Stubbed Toe, 1 Case of The Squirts(Keane)

The Recruitment bag is currently low on runes and pamphlets. We need to stay stocked on these to keep a  steady flow of new soldiers. So I ask any able arcanists to please mark runes for the bag and place them in it. Anyone who has the freetime can copy down some flyers. I repeat we are COMPLETELY out and need this done ASAP!

This Sunday

Slaying The Ice Fiends

Leading:
Lucas Drachen, Junior Grenadier

Attending:
Ilyana, Arcanist Corporal
Nicholi, Regular Guardsman
Cal'ain Cui'gnir, Guardsman Recruit
Orceater, Goat (Deceased....yet again)

The Task:
Getting those available for the next part of my trials. I led a small (But Brave) group of soldiers into The Dungeon of Ice to seek out The Ice Fiends that dwelled within. Following The Footsteps of Raiden Morana we setoff into the icy tomb. Within we did battle against many cold hearted creatures, Elementals made of Snow and Ice, Ogres and Trolls with frozen skin, and snakes and slimes. Sadly Orceater was taken from us shortly after entering the dungeon, He died whilst gnawing on a jam covered ratman. The numbers of creatures were intense and it took us some time to make our way to The Fiend's Den. Upon Entering we were given no time to plan, as a Fiend waited right at the entrance!


"Raiden isn't the only one who can stand victoriously over a Fiend!"


The Result:
We Killed Five of The Beasts total, After collecting four of their claws we returned to Cove victoriously. Tho The Gold wasn't documented, Six thousand coins were put into The Army Coffers.


"Four of a kind always beats a pair"

Lucas Drachen, Junior Grenadier

[The Jaws of The Balron]

The Jaws of The Balron

Leading:
Lucas Drachen, Junior Grenadier

Attending:
Torrak Keres, Commander
Hayden Shephard, Watchman
Sergio Jarret, Regular Scout
Mohawkacruit(Atrus), Guardsman Recruit
Railen, Watchman

The Task:
Getting Started on my quest to prove myself worthy of these arms, I led a reckless and spontaneous quest into Hythloth to retrieve The jaws of The Balron within. Fighting through the masses of Hellhounds, Imps, and Gargoyles. We finally located the creature. It seemed eager to end us, But after sizing it up we were able to thrash the demon in a fury of blows and insults!


"We attempted to carry the whole thing out....but opted for just the jaws"

The Aftermath:
Once we had the jaw we regrouped outside of The Dungeon. After giving Jarret a swift Grenakick into the Water...where he allegedly began swimming back....Rumours say he was picked up by a fishing boat and brought home after getting stuck in their net....


"Jewelry fit for a Grenadier"

The Result:
In The End we did not come home with very much gold for the coffers. As the continues flow of enemies towards us kept us too focused on survival to worry about riches. Tho all the gold (short of 5 to remove Mohawk's Mohawk) went to the coffers.


"Balron's, Nature's pickpocket"
