Clouded Skies

Fall, 393AV.

Winter begins to draw near in the mountains. The journey south from the forests near Boar Clan and Asketi's Mount become increasingly difficult as mud builds on the trails and paths. The road is fine between Boar Clan and the Market Gate. Winter hints on the air with colder breezes coming off the Arncharn and Himineldar every day.

The upside to this weather, which is a nice affirmation of the natural order with all this unnatural business with the eastern lands, is it makes meetings more easy to attend and draw audiences for. Nothing like a good hot meal and mug of ale to take the edge off the coming winter. I also have found that it takes plenty of time to arrange meetings, even as infrequent as they are. The upside is many a new face and veterans are attending. Word slowly spreads as we gather more information on the eastern menace, as well as more mundane matters of what needs to be done within the city and the farther-flung outposts.

I suspect I will see the first snows falling on the trees within weeks, which will be a wonderous sight as always.
