A new journey begins - 4.30.22 - Sc.1

 We were hired by a Valrath woman, Jekserah. She had a simple job for us, catch a bandit who stole some documents  from her. Pretty simple task I'd say. We found the scum's hideout, the Black Barrow. Upon entering the den we found not just the bandit, but a horde of his friends too. Craig the Craigheart, Trai the Brute and Shelli the Spellweaver brazenly entered the fray. Little did we know, these were no ordinary bandits, and our skills were greatly exaggerated. Perhaps we boasted a few too many times over a pint, and began to believe our lies ourselves. The bandits ousted us with ease. Foolheartedly we believed it to be dumb luck that they struck us down, and we rushed immediately back in. Although we made it further, to the final room, we were again defeated. We saw the horrors that lay within, the living bones waiting, with their jagged jaws and unnatural bodies. When we kicked the door open, we realized we did not have any more energy left inside to fight the remaining monsters, and thus retreated to Gloomhaven. Perhaps we will stock
up on a few items from the merchant before we attempt again.
