A new day - Eleasis 19th

Hasimir annoyed with the paladin's boldness says "I dont mind the entourage resting and trading here at the hold, but I'll be damned if I'm going to follow his orders like some temple slave. This is not his Hold and I don't want it or the people inside and around to be used as bait for the Dreadlord."

" Althalus?"

I am also no fan of the holy beer barrels, but as long as they understand that they are here as guests by our good graces, I don't see the harm. I wouldn't even mind, as part of our contruction process, building a small garrison up by the gates as a bunkhouse for patrols.

" Very good. I will ask them to stay as our guests and allies against the Overlord and orcs. I will have to make it clear that we are the law and that we do have members here in Rock Hammer who might not fall into their good graces. We must find ways to unify these different modes of thought, no better place than Rock Hammer! Thank you friends, you input was most useful."

Umberto excuses himself and goes to speak with the Knights of Tyr

Great idea Althalus on the idea of the garrison by the gates for the patrols! I’ll get the dwarven masons on it.

Umberto goes and speaks with Horace and his men and sets him straight. Horace seems a little put off by the demands, but agrees to the terms. For the time being, two-thirds of Horace’s men when station themselves at the front gate, while the rest are back inside the keep. Although it isn’t done, the wall is about three-feet high so far.

On to Eleasis 20^th.
