Merchants that are not well protected.

Merchandise is usually left untouched.

We filled a cart with barrels, trunks and a tarp. Under the tarp was Gretal, Jacqueline, and Nicoletta. I drove the cart as Izzie rode next to me. Diego acted as our guard. We left at dawn and our trip took most of the day. Upon arriving in Luthon Izzie check in at the townhouse. I went to the House of the Harping Monkey. The other later joined me at the pub. We entertained ourselves with stories of Owlbears. We plan to return to Norfolk the next morning.

1/20 Recap

Sextus 19, 1671
Our last adventure had us tracking down Brigands. We rode the country side, trying to look like juicy targets for such men. We came upon a farm house that was pillaged and burned. After investigating the site, we determine that this attack was not the highway men, but a much large group of men. The apparently attack the residence, took what they could and burned the rest. They traveled southwesterly towards Wessex county. Gretal and I followed the trail as Izzie, Jacqueline, and Diego traveled back to Norfolk for more accommodating clothes. After scouting ahead, Gretal and I returned to the house and met back up with Izzie and gang.

We rode through the night and the next morning came to a town that was just hint by the traveling army. The army stopped, met up with another army and then rode in and pillage the place. After a brief investigation we determined that this town was hit because of it's gold mine. Very little was stolen, but the mines were sabotaged. We continued to follow until Izzie, Jacqueline, Gretal, and Diego decide to give up chase. I continued to follow. The armies split up, one group traveled towards Carleon as the other rode south towards Canguine. I followed the group towards Canguine and during the night had caught up with them. I noted my findings and sent a report to Izzie via one of her porté boxes. I rode ahead to warn the villages, town and farmhouses.

Izzie and group sent message to Wessex. Personly met with Duke of Precis to warn him. Set up messenger box for Percis.

When Izzie and group returned to Norfolk they heard that the Brigands had attacked again.

Info from the army I followed:
35-45 Men in the army I followed.
6-10 in a unit. Number of superiors match this number.
Avalon mostly, some Inish, some Eisen. All Pikemen and mounted horseman.
20-30 extra mounts. Fought on horseback. Very well train and organized.

Other Army appeared to have similar numbers.
