Minerva Seabright and her companion, Tara Fletcher, departed the fishing village of Freecove on the seventh [2D6 = 7] day of Summer. Minerva, a scholar of Rune Lore, had arrived by fishing boat three days earlier in search of a rumored site of runic significance near the village. As the foremost wilderness guide for miles, Tara was the obvious choice of guide for the first-time adventurer and they quickly became fast friends.

At dawn of Minerva’s fourth day in Freecove, Tara led them out of the village, following alongside a happily bubbling stream, and into an old growth pine forest. Despite the cloudy sky seen at times peeking between boughs of the ancient sea-blown pines, the first day of their journey westward proved wholly uneventful.

By dusk, they were wandering still beneath the shadows of great red-trunked pines that rose dozens of feet into the air. Tara found a spot by the stream that was flat enough for them to comfortably sleep and they set to making camp. With a small fire, they ate their fill of hard bread and dried meat. Though Tara stayed up long into the night, keeping watch, she too soon fell asleep, and nothing disturbed their slumber the night long.
