The rest of our journey to Silverymoon was uneventful, but our arrival in the elven city was not. Our initial approach to the gate went as expected, but then, one of the guards looked closely at Perrin and Wallashane and shouted "Arrest them," taking the rest of us into custody as accomplices in a crime that could not have committed.

Our reputation for brave deeds had reached Silverymoon, so they agreed to give us a fair and speedy trial. We were locked into cells that...

I summoned some spectral mounts to aid us in our charge against the camp, as they are considerably faster than regular horses, and then we waited while Kayleth made her way toward the corral containing the prisoners.
