	~~It took years to rebuild the village and restore the surrounding farms. The people of Maghre had to work very hard~~, ~~but felt better knowing Arvith's men would be their firm allies in troubled times.~~

	Arvith ~~and his men left~~ the ~~village assured that~~ it ~~would be well guided by~~ Baran. ~~On their journeys they~~ faced ~~many challenges and battles~~. ~~Some tales even mention Arvith~~'s ~~name together~~ with ~~that~~ of the ~~famous elvish lord~~ Kalenz, ~~but this is a different story~~...		Excerpt from the journal of Arvith of Maghre

			Maghre is looking much better than the last time I saw it. Baran has done wonders in two years. The village is rebuilt, and the surrounding farmlands are restored and reoccupied. Despite my brother's worries, our people have faced no new threats in that time.

			It's been more difficult to stay away in those two years, but I have my calling and Baran has his, and we've had little opportunity to meet again. But as the company and I are passing through this part of the kingdom with a new patron, I've asked leave of him to visit my brother and he gave it.

			This patron is, of all things, an elf. I never thought I'd befriend one, but he's less arrogant than the rest. Kalenz, he calls himself. He's seen too much; I can tell that just by meeting his eyes. I think we'll have to work for our pay soon.

			In the meantime, though, it's good to relax and enjoy the peace.

			===Story Text===
			27 V, 363 YW

			Excerpt from the journal of Baran of Maghre

			Almost home now. The last week has been full of mixed feelings for me - blissful and difficult by turns. It was wonderful to be out of that dungeon cell and in the sunlight again without the threat of death or worse hanging over my head... but with that behind me, I turned to the almost equally daunting task of making amends with my brother.

			Arvith had largely forgiven me by the time he freed from my cell. All the same, it's taken all of the past week for us to rebuild the sense of comfort in each other we once had. It's fortunate that we've been able to take our time getting back - we gave the Grey Woods a wide berth, and on our way around it we travelled through some truly beautiful countryside. It has given us plenty of time to talk.

			Though I'm more at ease now, my thoughts often turn back to Toen Caric. We should've been able to repel the orcs without great loss - the pincer attack Arvith devised would surely have carried the day but for me. It was reckless of me to leave my men behind - I wounded the warlord and forced him to flee the field, but the cost far outweighed the gain. Those under my command could've been saved if I had remained with them.

			I can hardly blame Arvith for having taken their deaths ill, and I can never undo the wrong that I've done, but I suppose that time heals some things. We return to the village as brothers once more.

			But I'm still troubled. I wonder... is this sense of foreboding I feel merely a remnant of my time locked away in that dungeon, or is it a sign of something real?

	Translation hints: The first paragraph is shown with the journey map as a background, showing the village in the foothills along the route between Aldril and Dan’Tonk. I'm assuming the beacons either use smoke signals or basic fire signals, with a few agreed ones to request goods or indicate that surplus is for sale.		The remote freehold of Maghre in the western reaches of the Kingdom of Wesnoth was once a peaceful place, its inhabitants largely unaware of the comings and goings of the wider world. Wars and the rumour of wars touched them not. Even merchants were rarely seen, although caravans between Aldril and Dan’Tonk might send a wagon when called by the beacon tower.

	Skeletons and zombies killed cattle and fired fields. 'Fear and obey Mordak the Mage!' they cried in fell voices as they did their foul deeds. People vanished from isolated farmsteads. Men and women began to fear the night, and their children even the bright day. But the nearest lord was more than a day’s ride distant, and messengers sent to seek his help did not return.

Men and women began to fear the night, and their children even the bright day. But the nearest lord was more than a day’s ride distant, and messengers sent to seek his help did not return.

	There was a man named Baran who had shown talent as a mage when he was young, gone to the great Academy on the Isle of Alduin, and returned to work his magic in the land where he was born. The people looked to him for help and leadership. He found weapons half-forgotten from the times of their sires and grandsires hanging in many houses, and bade the villagers to take them down and clean and oil them. He set the smiths of Maghre to making spearheads and ax-blades for the rest.

	Now Baran had a brother named Arvith who had also left Maghre to seek his fortune, and had become the leader of a small band of horsemen who hired out as guards to merchant caravans. Fortunate it was for all that, in better times, the brothers had talked of using trade beacons for other signals when in dire need. Baran sent out that call.
