We are introduced to Caradoc, Jhank, Bariq, Sir Parrik, and Artvirious, who make up our new level one heroes! At Oleg's Trading Post near the Greyflow River, the will of the wizard Narthindlar of the Nine Spells is read, giving gifts to our new adventurers and charging them with rebuilding an ancient kingdom!  To deal with some bandit troubles, an ambush is staged and the small band of bandits is defeated. Various nearby opportunities for adventure are discussed, and player roles for the upcoming campaign are discussed. Heading northwest, the party discovers signs of a hidden wagon buried by the Lord's Alliance to conceal it from the Zhentarim, and it's full of treasure! Bariq discovers the joy of foraging for rare plants! Arbitrage sneaks its way back in, and the party then continues to the village of Eldergrove, which has been having some kind of trouble with the local fairies.
