For anyone who’s wondered what happened to the Spelens Hus RuneQuest game, I’m here at last to tell you that we have played our fourteenth session, which means five more for you to see.

Session 2 Location: Western Tamaryon, toward the river at the edge of the map. This portion of the region has been called Falkebrook.
