“Better you than me!”
A man on a horse shouts out to Alzar and Rolane as Alzar readies. The man is pale, ill-looking, in his late 20s, wearing chain mail, with a ripped away right sleeve and an ugly injury on his arm. To his right is a younger man in his late teens, with leather armor, a shield and a crossbow on his back.
The man stops them near the dead wyvern, and dismounts with some difficulty. The younger man helping him the entire time. He introduces himself as Rachlann…

Rachlann tells their story while Alzar uses his Healing proficiency to diagnose the wound. It’s badly infected and needs a Neutralize Poison spell to cure it.
Rachlann and Sarion were heading to the March of the Mighty to sign up with the growing military there. They were mercenaries and fought in a few skirmishes on the edge of civilization to the north, and decided to head south to the March for a more steady income. At that, Rolane smiles and tells them that they have just met the Marquis of the March
Alzar glances up and nods, and turns back.
Rachlann and Sarion stammer for a moment, and then continue the story.
Last night there was a harpy that attack them, and Rachlann slew it, but not before it clawed him badly on the arm. Alzar offers to heal it, but Rachlann knows it needs more than a gentle cure spell and tells him so.
“You are right. Luckily I have just such a thing.”
Alzar grabs the Rod of Healing and uses it to Neutralize the Poison of Rachlann. Alzar then casts Cure Light Wounds and heals the wounds. Rachlann is fully healed.
Alzar offers to have the two of them to go harpy hunting if they want, or they can continue on if they’ve had it. Rachlann is up for it. He’s looking for some payback
