Arden's Stead
The Company (less Serenity the Pregnant) travelled to
Sartar to visit a Bevara temple and hunt a pair of rocs (Lucifer killed them). They were sidetracked by Bjarnni and ended
up fighting Lunars, dehori demons, chaos ogres of the Sha San cult, and Sartarite collaborators. Bjarnni chanelled
the power of Orlanth and slew many ogres. Bronwen found a strange amulet and made contact with an eastern deity of some kind.The
group also encountered Arden Strongstorm, a strange being who serves Orlanth and taught them new magics.

Return of A Hero
Also known as the Return of Fost so as to avoid confusion. Fost miraculously returned to
The Arm of Pavis. Accompanied by a small warband and Scratch-E and Itch-E. Fost almost died in the Lismelder Rebellion
but upon recovering had decided to return to Pavis. Was shocked to discover that Serenity had spent all of his money. Nobody
else was even vaguely surprised. Serenity pretended indifference about his return but it was noted that the two
of them spent a week in her room after he returned and that she was in a good mood/pleasant for several days
after that.
Puzzle Canal Part 2
The Company travelled into the Puzzle Canal in search of a band of Thanatari. Various fights
ensued but they eventually got their men. they discovered an odd painting in a hidden chamber. It appeared to show scenes
from the future to those who view it. The Company saw a scene depicting the overthrow of the Lunars in Pavis. They laughed
a lot.

Rebellion in Sartar
Serenity and Lucifer travelled to Notchet via Sartar. Apart from a few skirmishes they
had an uneventful outward journey. Lucifer stopped off at the Indrodar shrine on Lismelder lands on the way back. Serenity
spent some time hunting down Lunar raiders, rescued three children from assassins and stopped at Tarthcaer on her way back.

The Cradle
The Company helped escort a giant cradle downriver despite
the best efforts of the Lunars to stop it. Many Lunars died. Fost managed to steal a standard from the Silver Shields. Miko
and Lucifer combined beautifully to take out two powerful Lunar sorcerers. Serenity almost met her match in a duel but
just about scraped through. Death of Count Julan (killed by Serenity).

Death of Orlanth
Things started to go badly at the end of the year. The Orlanthi members of The Company found
themselves cut off from their gods and denuded of their magics. Divinations failed, rituals had no effect, and things
just seemed to go awry at every turn. Fortunately The Company is not dependant entirely on Orlanthi magics but was weakened
considerably by these events.
Mundane enquiries about the problem were largely unsuccessful although rumours were
starting to spread that Orlanth was dead, killed by the Lunars. Shortly after they first heard the rumours Fost and Serenity
persuaded Lucifer to take them to the heroplane and from there travelled to Orlanth's stead. They found it abandoned and could
find no trace of the gods. While they were there, Jar-eel arrived and had a polite conversation with them. She informed them
that Orlanth was indeed dead but seemed unhappy, saying that this was not the way that she had wanted things done. She told
them to gather their forces as hell was about to be unleashed on Sartar. After this she left and the group
returned to the normal world. They organised the defences at the Arm as best they could and then set off for Tarthcaer in
an attempt to find Kallyr Starbrow.
