Late into the night, Commander Eason rustled through the administration parchments of the Cove Militia.
"Ahuh. Nay. Nay. Nay.. DEFINITELY Nay. Aha.. What's this? Watchman Cor'Ari Ta? Eh... Seems he's gone through a fair few of the promotional requirements.. Aye... Good. Let's see what we'll make of him."  And at that, the Commander stamped down the Militia seal. Trial approved.


Watchman's Trial: Cor'Ari Ta
Addressed to Watchman Cor'Ari Ta

Watchman Cor'Ari Ta, your recent efforts with the Cove Militia have been exemplary, and have now also been recognised. You have been approved by Militia Administration to attempt ye Watchman's Trial, which, when completed, shall earn ye promotion to Junior Guardsman, and the right to wear the coveted Covian Cap.
This Trial is by no means easy, but then.. life as a Junior Guardsman is nay different.
Pass the Trial, Watchman. Earn the Cap.
Commander Eason

                 As I walked into the Barracks I noticed a peace of Parchment with my name on it so I pulled it off and read it. Ahh my watchman trials. (Damn) I must go into Kaldorian territory and gather infomation, ( Frowns at the thought of the bad smell there ). Well if I must then I must. Deciet and stealth through and touch a throne ehh!? I can do that. Commander Eason ye did set up some messeh Trials fer meh but I will nay let ye down. I put the peace o' Parchment back on the board and walked out to prepair fer meh travels.
               I set out to the Minoc moongate to 'ead ta Trinsic when I remembered tha' thar was a shortcut through the Giant ants 'ole, So I went in and came ou' in Trinsic, Then 'eaded ta the Kaldorian loins. When I go' almos' thar I too ta the shadows and thought.... They can reveal meh, Mmm the commander nay said I coul' nay use meh other skills so I transformed meh self inta a rat and proceeded on.
When I go' thar I quickleh looked aroun' ta see ef em were abou' and ta meh surpise them still be en their slumber fer them Drow nay loik the sun loit.
       I desided ta start meh scetchen the place ou'.

The firs' builden I came ta on meh way back was the Recruiting office and cooling cells

There they do thar recruiting an' them cell I nay know wha' them be used fer. I then 'eaded ta the nex' one an' et was a Keep.

Tha' be one o' them Kaldorians 'ome I guess roit.
 From thar I continued north ta the nex' one an' et was the Kaldorian prison * Shivers *

Tha' place be a bad place ye ne'er wan' ta be en.
Afteh gather meh nerves I went ta the nex' one and et was thar Tavern.

Tha' es why them Drow smell so bad, Drinken awl tha' stale wine an' awl. Jess standen ou' side I coul' smell et loik I was en thar meh self.
Now the nex' place woul' indeed be a goo' place to check en ta for it was the Inquisition Building.

Ne'er know what ye may foind en thar.
The nex' building cought meh eye fer et was one fer Jessica an' ef she be needen killed we now where she be when she es en 'er slumber.

I woul' love ta visit 'er when she be en 'er slumber an' put meh balde en 'er throat.
The Kaldorian Scribe was the nex' place on meh list ta mark. Sergeant Arc moit wan' ta visit tha' place ta see ef thar es any thin' 'e may beable ta use.

The nex' place was an odd one, I nay under stood what the name ment bu' I marked et as well.

The nex' place awlmos' made meh pass ou' from the smell et was putten ou' et was where them Drow made their smelleh Drink.

Thar was even a sent o' cooked rats *Shivers more*
I came across wha' looked loik their Infermery.

The nex' place was somethin' we need ta realleh know abou' fer et was one o' their Temples.

Thar was another Temple roit nex' ta et ta et was the Temple o' Rasa.

 The Evil I felt comin' from these places made meh feal loik et be drainen meh energy. I nay wan' ta step anotheh foot en thar again.
Thar was two more buildin's left ta loo' at and they wer the Suply shop where them Drows stored their arrows and bolts as well as their potions. Tha' be a place ta raid one day while they slumber I tell ye.

An' Last bu' nay least an' maybe the most emportant was the Commanders Quarters. Et was Cal Soulshadow tha' lived thar an' we now know where she slumbers during the Day. Another one I woul' loik so vereh much ta visit one day.


I woul' 'ave went en side eack one bu' I nay beable to pick some o' them locks an' I nay was ta disturb them en thar slumber. After gettem awl I coul' gather I then 'eaded back ta Cove ta take meh a nice bath ta ge' the Smell o' them Drow orf meh fer i nay wan;ed ta let awl meh frinds smell meh an' thin' I was turnen inta them Drow.

All structures documented. Seems Strongholt is quite well kitted out. Good show, Watchman.
However, as far as we are aware, the Kaldorians are not genetically linked to Drow folk.

They do smell, though.

Well afta bathing orf the Kaldorian Smell I sat back plannen meh nex' step o' meh trials tha' the Commander set up fermeh, Et was nay easeh task this nex' one was bu' I foinally figured ou' wha' I mus' der fer et. I gathered meh thin's an' set ou' fer Deciet. When I go' thar the cold was bad almos' bad enough ta make meh turn back bu' I knew tha' ef I did I woul' nay pass meh trials so I tuffened up, gritted meh teeth an' went forward. When I came to the entrence et was a dark one at tha'.

Even though et was dark meh eyes coul' see en the darkes of nights so I went en an' ran ta the way dow' ta the nex' level.

When thar I felt at ease loik I almos' belonged thar fer some reason ( Koind o' puzzleing ) Bu' I went on anyway. I went through door afta door, Et looked loik thar was nay end o' doors an' loik a maze o' some koind. The local folks thar was nay 'uman or animal bu, loik the undead we 'ave at the Coveian Grave Yard.

Really awlmos' made meh feel loik I was back en Cove. Bu' I did know the Difference an' I knew it was nay Cove I be at.
So I pressed on, I 'ad to ge' ter meh Goal tha the Commander set ou' fer meh ta der.
I came across some o' them Liches loik we 'ave back en Cove an' them Bloodi thin's brought meh ou' o' the shadows an' then tried ta kill meh bu' I was a wee bit smarter than them undead Bastards, I ran an' re-entered the shadows an' used meh transfermation skill an' snuck passed them bu' them finally caught on ta meh. So I waited till them 'ad thar backs turned an' quickly pass withou' being seen.
I foinally foun' wha' et was the Commander tol' me ter an' I wal' up ter et and nay touched et I sat on et.

The reason I sat on et instead o' touchin' et was to proove ta the Commander tha' meh skills are as goo' as he thin's an' I 'ope tha' 'e sees tha' fer I onleh wan' ta fit en somewhere an show them awl tha' I can be goo' fer somethin'.
Afta a short while I desided tha' et was toim ta leave this place fer I was really getten use ta the feel o' tha' throne I sat on. So I then ran awl the way ou' fer them Liches are way ta slowta catch meh the onleh thin' I would 'ave ta worry abou' wil be them spells thay throw. I ran an' ran till I reached the ou'sid where I was met by them orcs.

I then quickeh unstrapped meh Short spear an' started dancen arou' wit them orcs fer them was nay getten meh.

The last one was the mos' fun ou' o' them awl fer I coul' see the fear en 'is eyes, et looked loik 'e was abou' ta fall an' cry fer 'is mates layen at 'is feet so I played aroun' a few minute 'open 'e woul' foin the courage ta foit meh wit awl 'is anger bu' 'e ne'er regained et so I took 'im ou'. I loo'ed aroun' ta see ef thar was more bu' naythin' was thar ta foind. I then 'eaded back 'ome ta ge' meh some rest much needed res'.
I 'ope tha' the commander es 'appy tha' I was able ta pull this orf.
