It was another day in the icey lands of Velious...which meant another day of adventure!
It wasn't long after I woke up that I heard my bow was needed in the Frozen Tower. So, that is where I found myself first. I'm usually not the biggest fan of closed spaces...but....an archers gotta do what an archers gotta do!

It was there I joined with my hunting party, our mission was to attack the queen of the tower!
Luckily the Fortitude the gnome had some keys to get us through the magic mirrors, letting us sneak right to the top floor....they would never expect us!!!

We quickly got to work dispatching of the strange minions. The lizard warriors took a strange pleasure in kicking the torches from the invisible monsters hands.

But....as we got near the queen....we could tell something was wrong.....her guards were missing!!!
Then, as we turned the corner....we saw it.....the tower already had an ogre infestation!!! And Super Friends!!!!

Oh well..... I guess the queen was already dead..... I had come all the way to the tower for nothing!!!!
Suddenly, I got word from one of my spies....<Bregan D'Aerth> was battling the Vindicator in the giant city!!! And worse, the Vindicator had pushed them back once already!!!! They needed my help!!!
Our lizard friends were too worn out from the long walk and cold (I guess lizard people don't do so well in the cold)....so it was up to me and Fortitude to get there in time to save <Bregan D'Aerth>....but we had to hurry!!!!!!
We ran as fast as we could and soon found ourselves in the giant city....but there was a problem.....the path to the hunting party was guarded by giants that we could never sneak past unnoticed.
"Rosen! I will distract them so you can reach the hunting party!" Fortitude said boldly.
"No! We have to make it together!! You will never survive distracting them for me!!" I replied.
"There is no other way" he said, turning away from me so I couldn't see the tears running down his face.
I knew he was right....it was the only way....but I promised him I would find a cleric to fix his gnomish body if I made it through!
And with that, Fortitude ran into the giants with a mighty battle roar, distracting them to the right as I ran left to join the battle party.
But...as I ran...I started to noticed most of the giants were killed already....and only one guard was at its post trying to moosh Fortitude.
"GNOMEY! IT IS OK!! BRING THE GIANT!! YOU DON'T HAVE TO DIE!!" I yelled
The hall was silent.....
Then, suddenly, Fortitude came running around the corner with the giant guard behind him!!! He was alive!!! But barely!!!! Just enough for the war party to ambush the giant and save his life! There would be no need for gnome body fixing today!
And with that, we had made it in time! <Bregan D'Aerth> had their archery and gnome support!

But, not just me...it seemed they had another ranger there....with a fancy hat. I was jealous.

And they also had these two wizards.....one was old, and one was young....but....high elves are strange! This is how cults start you know!

Anyhow, the war party began to lure away the temples guardians...one by one ambushing them in the hallway....their armor no match for my arrows.

Eventually the Vindicator himself was lured down into the hallway....but this time he stood no chance!! Against my arrows and the might of <Bregan D'Aerth>, along with a gnome, he was quickly vanquished!!
