Title: Securing The Shire
Post by: Jon Trent on September 30, 2007, 11:49:20 am
Attended by: JT - Jon Trent, Guardsman Recruit.

I awoke and made my way down the barracks steps to be greeted by... No-one. Only the traders next to the barracks seemed to be awake so early.

I made my way out into the shire to make sure all was well and to keeps watch for brigands, monsters and such.

I tracked and caught a great hart to provide food and hides for my one man sentry and chopped lumber from the trees which i fashioned into boards and then into barricades.

After constructing my "hide" I looked out into the forest, scanning for danger. I heard the thud, thud, thud, of an ettin approaching so I quietly put down my breakfast and unslinged my crossbow.

It was almost upon my "hide" when I sent a bolt hammering into it's chest, then another into it's back as it tried to escape.

I returned to my breakfast, the beast slain and the gentlefolk and animals of the shire safe. I kept watch until noon with no further incidents.
