King Arthur is stripped of his armor as the healers mix and brew the necessary potions
to remove the foul poison coursing through his body.

The King turns towards his long hidden heir, " Welcome home son, and what a fine lady you have brought with you. " A cough echos around the room as the healers mix some of the herbs. One of them mumbles " Oh does this mix smell! Glad we rarely have to make it ." The King's laugh is loud when he hears, " Well my loyal healers, I am not to fond of it either t'is the third time I've smelt it, and it never gets any better ."

The clean up goes remarkably well with no fuss or bother. The throne room almost sparkles as the clean up crew finishes and leaves with all their equipment. The healers have completed their task of cleansing the King's system of the lethal poison that was on the dragon dagger that wounded him so wickedly. As one of the clean up crew goes to leave with the weapon, the King's voice booms out to him and stops him in his tracks. The shaking man slowly turns and faces the King. King Arthur frowns a little and then smiles widely as he gently speaks to the shaking man holding the dagger. " I want that dagger mounted and hung in the halls with the other weapons that have done my body harm ."
The shaking man humbly mentions there is only one space left and should the King gain any more injures there will be need for another hall to be built. The King and all in the throne room roar with laughter, a welcome relief to the sounds of a battle that raged only hours before in the same room.

The King retired to his sleeping chambers to rest his weary body. Although cured of the deadly poison, he was in need of much rest and restoration. This was a perfect time for me to talk with Merlin and ask for guidance and advice in this almost strange new land. Strange and new because of the many years spent in exile in the uncharted islands of the Arc.

During my talk with Merlin, I and my followers learn that many things magical have changed, mostly a new form of magical travel using lode-stones. Merlin explains that these lode stones must be activated first so rune based teleports must be used to get close enough to them to activate. Merlin leads me and the party to the magic supply stores and refits us with runes and other magical equipment.

With the story told the two parties separate. Once again, I, my Dames, and a few of the less burdened Sirs travel back to Lawgof's Outpost for more coal. The rest of the men arrive at Camelot with the clans' supplies and equipment and start unpacking. Most of this will be needed to help with the rebuild effort of Camelot.

Arriving at Lawgof's Outpost, We find many deposits of coal and the trucks giving the name of The Coal Trucks to area. Near one of the coal trucks, we find a dwarf named Stankers who sells bronze pickaxes and gives away a dubious drink called a poison chalice. The party decides that these may be best avoided.
The area is rich in coal, willow trees, and a huge amount of giant bats. The party gathers coal into their magical coal bags and start to fill the trucks that Stankers allows personal use of with precious coal. Filled to capactity, we bid Stankers farewell, and the party starts the journey back to Camelot.

On the journey back, I find a message that was nailed to a tree along the road. The message requests a meeting in the Seers tavern to propose a treaty with the Elves of Prifddinas signed at the bottom by Travis.
The coal gathering party splits from me. With three Dames following I head into the Seers tavern, while the rest of the party travel to Camelot to unload their haul. A small party of clocked elves are sat at a table in the darkened corner of the tavern with barely touched drinks in front of them. I stand before them and inquires if one of them is Travis from the message. A tall slim elf stands, removes his cowl, and grins with his hand thrust forward, " I am Travis Thorn, Grand Elder of the Kingdom of Isafdar. Well met Kid Arthur! Sit and we will talk ." A bar wench places drinks down for me and the Dames as we all sit down.

Travis Thorn and I talk of the troubled times befalling the land, and speak of an alliance that would benefit both kingdoms. Drinks are finished, and we agree to travel with Travis and his elf party to the fabled Kingdom of Isafdar and the grand city of the elves, Prifddinas.

We are awe struck by the beauty of the city as we make way to the Tower of Voices' balcony. Travis Thorn addresses his people with this speech:

" Citizens of The Kingdom of Isafdar! I have a glorious announcement. It is with great pleasure that I announce that our kingdom and The Round Table are now allies! May our two nations grow and prosper together and work to fulfill both our goals ."

A great roar explodes from the crowd as cheers and praise is shouted for the alliance of these great nations.

" In good faith ," Travis Thorn continues," I proclaim the lands of Catherby, a prized fishing area, will be given to Kid Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table. I hope that the new trade will prosper and be beneficial to both peoples ."

We turn and nod at one another with a smile as we sit down.
Knowing that great things are about to happen.

The Round Table part 2

It was announced that a journey was to be undertaken by the Queen Lorry Rayne to the Lunar Isles.
This would mean a trip through Rellekka to ride a boat to the isles.
King Kid Arthur called a meeting in the throne room to inform everyone of the upcoming events.
"My people," King Kid Arthur boomed to the crowd of his family and kingdom.." today Queen Lorry Rayne travels to Rellekka and then onto the Lunar Isles with Fierysfury and her guard to ensure that our King Arthur my father is safely settled there, Jura Mist and your elite guard will be sent to protect our Queen and Princess." King Kid Arthur paused just long enough to see faces take in the news before he had another announcement, "My people, I have another journey planned. My knights and I are heading to Miscellania after we part with the Queen and her party ."
King Kid Arthur saw an excited Spelsa jumping up and down waving her hands in the air, looked at her and sighed then spoke, "Sorry Spelsa, you're not going. You are to stay with Merlin, keep your studies up, and guard the castle with Merlin and Halfpint."
Spelsa kicked a imaginary rock on the floor in front of her, stuffed her hands in her pockets, and huffed "I s'pose so." Then grinned thinking she had gotten out of it easy, besides Rellekka was a long walk.

Jura Mist called his best men together. He addressed Vlarkin the Slayer Master, Mighty Manny the Court Jester, Psycotropy the Cook, FireMakers the Brave, Unbreakable the Brewer, and Spudders of the Taters.

"Men tonight we be on the road. Grab rations and gear. We march in ten minutes to protect the Queen and Princess all the way to the Lunar Isles. We will travel with King Kid Arthur to Rellekka."

A similar speach is going on in the King's Knights quarters. Ecentrah called, Sassy Lady the Immortal, Evig Faith the Warrior, Kia Kaha of the Islands, Hina Cuddles the Agile, Lady Storms the High Priestess, and June the Demon Killer, Get your gear and take as long as you want the boys will have to wait for us anyway." The lady knights erupted with laughter and cheers then got into gearing up.

Everyone met in the courtyard of the castle and set out for Rellekka. The two parties were fully supplied and armed to the teeth as they began their march on the road through beautiful countryside to the Fremennik Provence and the bustling town of Rellekka.
The journey was beautiful but uneventful. The entire party entered the gates of Rellekka and began heading to the docks as quietly as possible so as not to alert Brundt the Cheiftan of their presence. They knew that he would make any possible excuse for an all night party of drink and song. Brundt is known for drawn out parties and flat out guests that need days to recover from the excessive drink and food.

Queen Lorry Rayne's party headed to the sailor that handles the ship passage to the Lunar Isles. Lokar the Searunner was to ferry the party to Pirates Cove where they would complete the journey to the Lunar Isles with Captain Bently.

King Kid Arthur and his group headed to the sailor on another dock that will take them to Miscellania. Both leaders look over their respective groups, and Queen Lorry Rayne sighs, "Where is Unbreakable? Jura Mist, could you search for him please?" Jura Mist turns on his heels and just about takes a step when into view comes Brundt and Unbreakable arms draped over each other's shoulders. Both were holding massive tankards of the famous Fremennik ale, and looking very worse for wear. Other men followed them with carts of kegs of ale and tankards. King Kid Arthur licks his imaginary parched lips and mutters, "One wont hurt?" Queen Lorry Rayne rolls her eyes and silently agrees with her King without telling him, "Okay, just one." Everyone roars with cheers for the Queen as ale is poured and drunk. Unbreakable able to consume several tankards to everyone else's one.
Much hand shaking and hugs between the two royal groups and the Fremenniks go on, as farewells are said. Both parties climb aboard their ships. Ropes strain as wind fills the sails of both ships as they cut through the water to adventure!

Queen Lorry Rayne and Princess Fierysfury are on high alert as their ship stops at Pirate Cove for the transfer to the Lunar Isles. They pass the time on Captain Bently's ship talking and planning, while the men help with the sails and rigging. Captain Benty couldn't have had a better extra crew. Jura Mist and his brave warriors needed to hone their skills with ship repair, as they spent a great deal of time below the waterline repairing the hull with all its leaks.

Unbreakable helped motivate the group with the secret stash of kegs of ale he obtained from Brundt, and all had a epic but mostly uneventful sea journey (other than a few sore heads from over indulgence).

Meanwhile on the other ship, King Kid Arthur was nursing a wicked hangover, and was glad there was no more ale to guzzle. Even the fine food was a little hard to eat with his stomach churning like the wild ocean all around the ship. It didn't help that his guards were arguing over repairs to clothing and exact spices to use in every meal. However, the ladies using these arguments to cover the fact that they were maintaining swords, daggers and armour. King Kid Arthur saw this, and smiled with admiration at these fighting women. He truly wondered, between him and the Queen, who had the best guards. A contest might one day be in order!
As the ship nears Miscellania, the King's guard goes silent, alert and wary of the new land they are about to step on to. Once they are ready, Ecentrah pats the King on the shoulder and says, "Sire, we are here. The Dames are ready to follow you." The King replies, "Thank you, Ecentrah. Now we march to the town!"

Back in Camelot, Spelsa screams, elemental balls of energy burst forth from her outstretched hands and her robes glow with growing energy. Before her, a bowl filled with water is boiling to all others. but to her eyes a clear picture is forming...
Merlin rushes into the room and dispels the image in the bowl with a huge crackle of magical energy. It disperses and shatters the bowl.
