a slight mis hap was discovered and has been fixed in the cave of the grovestriders.. it seems i am the only person who actually check the cave.. the problem was a missing depot.. it has since been placed back in it's previous spot.. huzzahs! now then some one get to cutting those damned cherry trees down.. don't up root just cut.. we need branches for sword handles and the like.. also.. i would like to meet as many of the grovestriders in one place at one time as i can.. we may have a job coming our way that will require more than on person..

and to Tirrend. If you dont start showing your hide you shall be removed from the position of captain.. a captain should be active.. i gave you a responsibility and you have shirked it..

any one wish to be captain needs these qualities..

• be able to be around frequently and if you cant, find a suitable replacement before you leave the island.
• be ready to train new recruits and yourself as well as more seasoned soldiers.

this is not very demanding other than devoting time to teaching others.

if you must get work done this is all well and good try to find a job with in your work for your fellow grovestriders. For example:

if i must have fur to tailor i look for one of my grovestriders to help me get fur or to go get the furs for me.. if i need a farm grain i teach some farming to the fellow grovestriders and let them farm along side me to help me out a bit and they can sell any extra. or perhaps take on another farming job for an outside person..

currently i am in need of both sibanac and furs.. so in light of this i am seeking members to help me at the troll woods and also in wolf hunting.. in exchange i shall pay you the going rate of 5 copper each for furs and 1 copper for sib. also if you need leather or fur goods i will make those. also if your other tools, weapons, or armors are worn or broken come find me and we will take a trip to the armory.

remember your family

Dear Grovstriders,

I am still a member of this society if you still wish to have me. I am taking a time off in the forest for meditation purposes and cleansing of my soul and spirit after that demon incident. I will be back in two dwarven months. Sorry for the sudden leave of adsense but this cleansing was severly needed. I did not tell anyone of my leaving cause i did not want it to be found out and then i followed by the very demons harrassing me.

Love, Grovestrider Fleta Ross, Page of the Knighthood of Gobiath, Free Druid

i have got 2 new recruits to the grovestriders pug Fosse and joris

*Scribbles a small note on the board, quite sloppy and hastily.*

Greetin's. I'm the potentially welcome new member to the Grovestriders.

Making myself known, I suppose.

-Joris Cleaver

Joris Cleaver,

If you would eet with me in person so I can evaluate your skills and such to see if you are ready to join the Grovestriders, it would be much appreciated. I dont dubt you will be a valuable addition, but would be pleased to meet with any new recruits in person. Please send me a letter with when and where I can meet with you.

Officer Jonathan Cain

I don't recall an evaluation being involved in joining...just to get a higher rank..besides, he's an archer, he'll stand no chance in your evaluations.

Tak

Tak, I care ,ess for his fighting skills than I do for his mind and personality. I like to know who i'm working with.


Jon

Verywell, I am simply worried you will beat him into a pulp and we will have no recruit left.

Have Fun,
Tak

You be pleased (hopefully) to hear that I made it out alive.

See you 'round,

-Joris

*Scribbles another hastily written note, excitement is obviously seen through the writing*

I reckon I scored my first "contract" with some halflings named Bernie and Jonah. I'll be butchering pigs for a while, collecting their leathers, entrails, and pork for their own reasons.

My Dear family Of Grovestriders,

I miss you all very much. i also am proud to see you have gotten along well in my absence. I look around and i see that spring has come again. it is marvelous. unfortunately i can not stay. i will return as i can but it will be a while before any one sees me in person. i know not when i can return for good the situation on the mainland has become more challenging.

Greetings Fellow Grovestriders!

Murgo is wanting to join our ranks. I was able to recruit him in. So, by the will of our Commanders - or whoever makes the choice - please accept Murgo as a new member!

Many Thanks!
-Joris C.

contract!

we have a proposal for a contract with trolls bane to join the town guard on a temporary basis. pay is to be between 10-20 silvers per dwarven month.

this contract is not yet final and if you have already joined the guard there is no need to express the intent to take part in this contract as you are already guard members privately. all others who may wish to take this on please send me a dove.



War games!

We will be aiding the Tinechore of vanima in training on ((sunday at 10pm GMT ))

Greetings to all Grovestriders. Unfortunately i was injured by a golem in a bit if an odd accident. as for my recovery i shall be fine it is nothing life threating broken rib possibly a minor fracture in my upper arm. i shall be recuperating in my cave until i am fit for combat. if any one needs me i can easily be reached via messenger leaving a note on the inner cave wall. Any visits are welcomed however some form of advanced notice is required as i will not answer to just sporadic visitors.

If you are an officer you may come get new keys however you must still arrange a meeting in advance other's keys shall be granted later as needed.

Darius Kain

PS. pie are most welcome if you wish to send some form of "get well" food. i can still tailor though i will not be able to make the same quality garments as you may have come to expect.

Hmph.

I noticed that you've all decided to take my name off the roster. I suppose I have only myself to blame, what with my long absence. Regardless, I'm back yet again, so if it's not an inconvenience, kindly put me back on the roster.

-Erester, Carpenter.

P.S. Which one of you changed the locks on the door? My key no longer works.

*a man walks up wearing a green robe which has the grovestriders coat of arms on the back and places a note on one of the trees*


the locks have been changed because i lost my key to bandits and they had to be changed. to get a new key and back on the roster
you should send darius a letter.

Dear Grovestrider peoples,

I forgot to mention to you all that I will be away for awhile, though I plan to return within a few dwarven weeks, I hope all is well, keep an eye on the union for me if you have time.

Signed,
Tak'Zel

im just leaving the post here to remind you all we are still a guild and we need the ability to serve to populous with our talents and time..

~Darius Kain~

*Something is scrawled underneath.*

Need working hand
pays well

*Some green stalks of grain are braided to a wreath, laying on a stone below.

Alright spring is here.. and we need coins collectively and individually.. we will now be running a delivery service.. all the usual rules apply. essentially nothing has changed.. we will be working with the farmer's union and other good providers in order to promote island-wide commerce. so if you need money trap on some good boots and find us merchants to do business with.


~Darius Kain

A simple note is pinned upon the board atop a few old ones

I would like to resign from my position as Officer, and from the guild all together.

Thank you,
~Tirrend~

My Dear Brother,

I hope you have a key saved for me still. I am considering doing some of the work that i have been doing in Briar and the harbor in the comfort and privacy of the cave. Please let me know when and where to meet you.

Love always,
Your sister,
