Day 40, Year 538 of the Ascendancy

For a long time now, I have been looking for a
good party to go to the Dal’Noth Isle with. I had heard that much had
changed there since I last visited the cursed isle, and today I got my
chance. When I got out of the library today, I heard that there was a
party forming on Da’Noth Isle. I quickly rushed to the docks, and in no
time I had paddled my way to the cursed island. There, I joined a small
party of exiles, and we proceeded to hunt on Dal’Noth Island.
Unfortunately, the ‘Noth had other plans for us. As we traversed the
passes of Dal’Noth, several Zol’Noths and Sar’Noths appeared, and began
to attack our party. In no time at all, bodies were strewn out
everywhere. Luckily for us, a large band of rescuers was assembled in
town, and we were back on our feet in no time.

However, the ‘Noths were not about to give up yet.
Several Sar’Noths and Palidews materialized out of nowhere, and we were
again in a desperate battle for our lives. At the same time, a Darshak
Warship containing “elite” Darshak forces landed on Puddleby, and the
townsfolk were hard pressed to keep the pirates at bay. One by one, the
exiles on Dal’Noth began to fall, and things looked bleak, for no
rescue could come from town.

Luckily, some of the survivors were able to lead
the Sar’Noths away, while the healers came to raise the fallen. With
our strength returned to us once more, we defeated the last of the
‘Noths, and made our way to Puddleby. We had heard that the town was
practically overrun by Darshak pirates, but by the time we arrived
there, only a few of the Darshak remained. We lent our sword arms to
whomever needed them, and gradually the Darshak were forced to retreat.
I was a bit disapointed that our hunt on the Dal’Noth Isle was
cancelled, but I soon heard of another party forming on the cursed
island. I rushed once more to Dal’Noth, and the hunt was begun.

The new party of exiles I traveled with were quite
powerful indeed. There number included several prominent fighters and
healers, including Althea, Gurgi, J’jh, Tarf, and Thuja. With such
invincible companions, I travelled through the isle with ease. I got to
see once more the Dal’Noth Town, and the forbidding Dal’Noth Castle. I
also got to explore several of the hidden caverns beneath Dal’Noth
Isle, and caught glimpse of the Dal’Noth Outpost. There was much to be
discovered, and everything was new to me. It was a great hunt, and what
with the high bountys placed upon the ‘Noths heads, I made over a
hundred coins during the hunt. I also found that there were many hidden
paths on Dal’Noth, that lead to many interesting places, and though I
recently made “2nd Sparkle” pathfinder, I was not able to enter a great
many of them. This adventure has spurred me to work even harder in my
studies with the Marsh Hermit. Next time I have chance to visit the
Dal’Noth Isle, it will lay bare before me all of it’s most intimate
secrets…
