Session 05 — The Reaver Ambush
Reconstructed from memory — correct anything that's off.
Previous: ← Session 04
At a glance
| Party level | 4th |
| Started in or near | Red Larch (departure) |
| Ended at | Reaver ambush site in the hills — immediately after the fight, before looting |
Summary
The party finally pursued the missing Mirabar delegation in earnest. They left Red Larch, fought bandits on the road, and walked into a reaver ambush in the hills. The party won the fight and killed every attacker. The session ended right after combat — the bodies and the area had not been searched yet.
What happened
- The party left Red Larch to follow leads on the missing delegation.
- On the road they fought a group of bandits and won.
- They continued toward the delegation trail and were ambushed by raiders (reavers) in the hills.
- The party fought through the ambush and killed every attacker.
- The session ended immediately after the fight. The party had not looted the bodies or searched the site.
Key moments
- Missing delegation — the party committed to the investigation as their main goal.
- Two fights on the road — bandits first, then the reaver ambush.
- Hard fight — the party took hits (especially Togar, who was visibly battered by the end).
- Cliffhanger — victory, but no loot or clues collected yet.
People
- Bandits — hostile group on the road (no names recorded)
- Raiders / reavers — ambush force in the hills (hostile, slain; no names recorded)
Places
- Red Larch — departure point
- Road through the Red Larch surroundings / Sumber Hills
- Reaver ambush site — hills outside Red Larch (exact name TBD in play)
Loot & rewards
- Not yet collected — the ambush site still needs to be searched (Session 06).
Unresolved
- Search the ambush site — loot, bodies, and clues are waiting on the field.
- Why were these raiders here? — connection to the missing delegation is unknown.
- Ewan's favor — still outstanding from Session 04.
- Party goal unchanged: find the Mirabar delegation and learn more about cult activity in the valley.
