Game Background
Founded in ancient tragedy, the Tree of Parting is a safe haven in a dangerous land. The Tree of Parting is considered by many to be one of the Wonders of the Wold. It is known far and wide for its hospitality as well as the incredible beauty of its views in all directions. From the tree, one can see Culverwood, Izen, The Red Hills, the Emerald Kingdom, and on a clear day offer a far off view of the plateaus of the Kingdom of New Elenna.

- Miles Raynor - Male Human, Head of Security - He and his assistant, coordinate all defense efforts for the Tree. Miles was a career officer with the Emerald Armed Forces. He explains the behavior expected of all guests of the inn, much to the consternation of Ciyradyl, who thinks it harms her hospitality. He also runs regular drills for all able-bodied residents of the Tree as everyone, “And I mean everyone,” will help defend the tree if attacked.
- Folbre Ilyndrathyl - Male Elf Tree of Parting Manager
- Ciyradyl Ilyndrathyl - Female Elf, Runs Treetop Tavern
- Hiflanyl Ilyndrathyl - Male Elf, Runs the warehouse and stables - He also runs the “lifts” to raise up the trade wagons into the tree and is the lead repairman for anything that needs fixed. He is a virtuoso at repairing anything. Hiflanyl has designed a stairway that circles the trunk of the tree, which can be lifted and compacted when the denizens of Izen or the Red Hills come calling. He also has several lifts that can lift anything from a pile of crates, to livestock, to an entire wagon up into the safety of the tree for the evening.

History
They all came from different backgrounds and stories and had their own reasons to do so, but one and all found themselves in the small town of Edenmoor and the cusp of adventure. Signing aboard as additional guard for a grand caravan to the west and Emerald City by The Mailed Fist, the party set out. 8 days into the journey, one of the wagons has come upon a problem. The rear axle and wheels have not only come apart, much of the fittings have been torn to sawdust. Garretn Von Klempt, Captain of the Mailed Fist has chosen the party as the souls who will stand against the raiders of the Red Hills and Izen as the the merchants oils to get the wagon operational. Night is falling
Death tried to come that night. Death in the form of goblin raiders from the Red Hills. They rode in on goblin dogs, nearly 3 to 1 against the small band of protectors. The battle was short and bloody with one of the guards, Bonivus the minotaur, falling to the enemy's blades and teeth. The party of Atals, Mack, Lilith Crosseye and Bonivus did win the day in the end. Killing a dozen of the foul goblins and 4 of their dogs. Quick action saved the life of Bonivus and the party continued their journey. It has been 2 days since the attack, hopefully there will be no others. The Tree of Parting is only a day further.
