As soon as the doors were well closed behind us and I had checked that no spiders had followed us out I turned to the rangers. Honeypot helped the last one of the regain consciousness. He opened his and I looked deeply into his beautiful steel blue eyes. The others found out that Fort Rannick had fallen as I helped Kaven Windstrike, as he was called, to sit up. We decided that we should return to Turtleback Ferry to heal and regain strength. Dorothea and Gloriana started planning on how to burn the house down and Velicia objected.

They didn't seem to like each others and she turned on her heal and marched back out into the rain. Honeypot followed her. Jakardros started crying. It felt very strange looking at an old man that looked like a tough soldier crying. I approached and tried to console him. I was joined by Kaven and Vale Temros as the dark man was called.

back out to sea when he protested. We told him we would just borrow

it to help out. He still didn't agree until he heard the commotion

behind him. There people talked about the rangers we saved. He asked

if we saved those rangers and when we nodded he helped us put the

As we left Dorothea set fire to the barn too. I thought that that might be a little unnecessary. It was in the house they had all the disgusting body parts. We went back the same way we came.

Template:Rise of the Runelords chapter

Closing on Turtleback Ferry we could see a strange light over the village. It had an orange-red color as if there was a big fire and sure enough there was. Hurrying into the village to see how we could help, we saw that it was Paradise's Gates that was burning. It was maybe 500 feet out on the Claybottom Lake. We ran up to the closest boat, where a fisherman stood pulling it ashore. We started to put it back out to sea when he protested. We told him we would just borrow it to help out. He still didn't agree until he heard the commotion behind him. There people talked about the rangers we saved. He asked if we saved those rangers and when we nodded he helped us put the boat back to sea.

The burning barge, Paradise's Gates

Rowing out, Honeypot performed a ritual on Velicia to protect her from fire. As we closed in I looked carefully at the burning wreck. I was sure there could be no survivors still there. We got close enough for Velicia to jump over and she searched among the flames. Still in our boat I searched for traces of what could have started the fire. I could tell that the fire had spread very quickly, almost like an explosion. The walls had collapsed immediately and the roof had fallen down, trapping most people inside. Velicia told us that it had looked like the fire had been started by lighting. Honeypot and I looked around and saw something floating in the water. It were the bodies of a trapper and a waitress. With a sad mind we returned to Turtleback Ferry.

We were met by the priest who was also the mayor. He introduced himself as Maelin Shreed. He told us that there were around thirty people missing. They had recovered fifteen dead and almost thirty survivors. He led us to a cottage hospital where they were treated. He lived there. Several of the survivors were severely burnt. As it was getting late he offered us to sleep there but we declined as didn't want to be any burden. Instead we went to the inn.

When we got there we were treated with great respect. It turned out that the rangers were held in high regard, staying for free at the inn, and when the locals heard that we had saved some of them we were heroes. We still payed for our rooms though. We were asked to tell the story of how we saved the rangers. The others drank wine and we told the story of the awful half-ogres. The mood of everybody rose, but I was still shook up by the day's experiences. I took care of Kaven, making sure he was comfortable, but the rangers were in such a bad condition that they went to bed early. I went to bed quite early too, at about midnight.
