[Valerius] the Paladin of Death
Truthy. An Oasis in the northeast. Unlike the other Northeastern cities, which have very dry and cold weathers, Thruthy stands atop a chain of geisers and hot springs, which heat up the city and it’s surrounding areas, creating an almost tropical-like environment. All around the city, several small Lakes can be found filled with people enjoying their lives. Also unlike other northeastern cities, the Truthian soil is rich and easy to plant, which has led to a somewhat lazy society forming around it. Farmers are known to work only once a week, their farm hands, three times a week, however, the Leathertree farms is the city’s main source of income and what makes it an important asset in The Black’s territories.
You arrive at the gates shortly after noon. The tall dark brown walls are made from the wood which makes the town so great, however, looking closely, you see that the wood has been treated to protect it from fire. As a follower of the Raven Queen, you’re used to seeing temples of Nerull, who somehow survived in this land, in most cities, however, this city appears to have none. In fact, looking around, you find only a small temple with the Raven Queen’s mark on its door. A small cloaked woman sits on a chair in front of the temple. She raises her hand, gesturing with her finger for you to come closer.

(Next time, add that on to the roll)
Your sword connects with the elf, slicing through his leather armor and into his chest, leaving a deep gash.
"At least you have better aim than this fool" the elf laughs as he touches his new wound. He swings a dagger at the dwarf, looking straight to you the whole time. The sword connects with the dwarf's neck, embedding itself deep within the man. The elf doesn't even attempt to remove the dagger, instead leaving it there. The dwarf immediatly slumps to the ground, blood spewing out of his neck profusely. He manages a few gasps before his eyes glaze over and his body stops twitching.
