Returning to Kalaman laden with grief,
the Kalamaniacs find friends that offer relief.
Cudgel and company warmly greet Marcus,
and Karyon, and Gilbert, and Kanathar’s carcass.

The Kalamaniacs grieve for their fallen comrade,
Kanathar Hornraven gave all that he had.
A martyr of Titarr, he lived like a comet,
Now he lies silent, covered in vomit.

Our heroes take their enemies by surprise,
Kanathar charges forth as he prays to the skies.
Gilbert cast spells and Karyon stalks like a wraith,
Marcus wields a blade imbued with holy faith.

Kanathar helps Marcus move a tree from the road,
near two broken wagons devoid of their load.
Karyon investigates draconian tracks,
they’ll soon find the source of these malicious attacks.

Four Friends of Ispin bid Macho Mage farewell,
as he escorts a captive with valuable intel.
To Kalaman’s leaders Macho Mage will take him,
and there will our allied interrogators break him.

At the farmhouse, a squad of hobgoblin recruits,
training to join the Dragon Army’s pursuits.
Surprised by the Kalamaniacs’ will and wit,
the squad was soon slain, the leader’s freedom forfeit.

Our heroes next mission, a farmhouse to find,
Kanathar leaves his Fargab behind,
Marshal Vendri and Darrett can tune in and learn,
All that the Kalamaniacs will discern.

Gilbert had an errand to run,
Macho Mage went along just for the fun.
At Wyhan’s emporium, the good times did roll,
as Gilbert selected a fine brazen bowl.

Kanathar and Marcus heal the refugees ills,
by the grace of Titarr and Kiri-Jolith’s wills.
The gods have returned, with proof empirical,
and these two men are the vessels of miracle.

Back to the council, with much to be said,
One scout alive, another one dead.
Both had tales of their own to be told,
and the mission’s heroics were rewarded with gold.
