Episode: Bring Forth the Huntsmen
Posted by Story on 10/11/17
The campaign in the Gray Forest is certainly in full swing. Skirmishes are frequent but fleeting, and while supplies are starting to make their way to Farhaven and the Gray Forest forces, there's no sign yet of any cohesive force coming in opposition to those gathered. Still, shavs seem as willing to talk as to fight, and so Legate Orazio has organized a contingent of missionaries. They are eager to volunteer, and head to the Gray Forest armed with supplies and glorious ideals! Despite orders, they're not very good at keeping matters of Faith out of their discussions, but the shav generally just shrug and let them talk for a while. They're offering medical supplies, healing, books, and toys for the children - and the shav are clearly thinking of the children because they accept this gratefully. While the missionaries aren't very successful at discussion matters of Faith, they are better at politics - the Horned God, the shav they talk to agree, is no sort of God at all - and the spirits, they add, aren't very happy about any of this. All in all the missionaries are a success - at least where humanitarian aid is concerned.
