			== Second Visit ==
			Our friends arrive with a whole caravan of wagons and many people from the [[Imperial Wayhouse]], including a tribe of forty goblins. Fortunately Regius has been using Sending spells to let Arosin know of their plans and so new houses are already being constructed as this large new influx of people comes to the village.

			Arosin has taken to his Thane-ship and greets them warmly and many stories are shared, our friends later hear that the bard has been ‘dating’ numerous girls. Ida Egnell gets Reb alone as soon as she can; she wants her share of the [[Udvjor Gardyl\|Gardyl]] treasure and is quite disappointed when the fighter tells her that they didn't recover a single thing from there.

			Hegibjorht Sonddahl puts up our friends again, just like last time. There's more room now; his daughter Smilla married Einar Nergaard, moved in with him and is pregnant with her first child. Fulbjorht Stahl and Thrand Ternheim also moved in together, the village has been mostly supportive of this. Valter Nergaard and Anja Westergren have a beautiful baby girl and are very happy together.

			In more surprising news; Lyngheid Stahl and Ceolred Ternheim are dating! The Ternheim mill runs much better now with the new wheel and they hope to pay back the loan shortly. The forge is doing well, Alrek has been let go and Lyngheid hired Bjorn Westergren instead, he is learning quickly. The canal has been finished and all the farms are doing better for it, future harvests look bright.

			Fjotra Ternheim has built a shrine to Ancev and lives in Lina Flug’s old home. In there she found diary chronicles many of the old issues and lambasts the villagers who let it come this far. It would have been quite useful had the party found it on their first visit. Regius just won't accept Ancev being the only deity in town and he invests no less than five hundred gold pieces of his own money into building a proper temple to Ulaa. He found a priest in Jurva willing to move here and he 'converted' at least fourteen of the new arrivals.

			A large fest is held to celebrate the party and the new villagers. Thing seem to be going quite well, the goblins are quite willing to adapt to a more settled life and with this new influx the town's future looks to be brighter. After a few days our friends say their goodbyes and start their journey back to [[Stjordvik]].

	Our friends explain that they are from Hollenvik and suggest that maybe there could be some trade between the village and the bugbears. The elders tell them they already do a little trading with the village of Forngaror.

	Ideas are bandied about and the party also learns that the bugbears settled here due to a conflict the clan had with some other kind of tribe in the foothills of the [[~~Giant’s~~ Crown Mountains]]. They don't come to any real agreement but our friends have established that the clan doesn't seem to pose a threat to Hollenvik at this time.

	To further cement relations Reb asks if there's anything the bugbears could use help with. The elders are hesitant but eventually tell that not too long ago they were attacked in the night by a goblin tribe lead by a barghest, They managed to slay nearly every goblin but the barghest fled and has since stuck around killing lone bugbears with hit and run tactics.

	She's a shrewd one and tells the party that should this deed happen to surface that she would be willing to trade for it. She is in the possession of a map that leads to a [[Baltur\|Balturian gardyl]] in the nearby mountains. According to her these places are treasure troves for the adventurous kind and her map is the only one. She was planning on selling it to the [[Tipatshimun]] but she is more than happy to trade it for this hypothetical deed.

	When asked about a place for them to stay the night she points them to Hegibjorht Sonddahl. His daughter Smilla is marrying Einar Nergaard, he will be more than willing to put them up and make a little coin. The party buys some candy when they see all the kids outside, it turns out the prices at the store are quite high! Still, they get enough sweetmeats to distribute to all children.

	A large tree trunk has narrowed the well shaft and Hanur manages to use a saw and remove it. Even with it gone it's still to narrow for the half-orc to fit through. But Arosin definitely fits, so he is lowered down. There he finds the water level is about 20 cm and the bottom of the pool contains all kinds of detritus. Off to the side a number of rocks have gotten lodged and are blocking most of the water coming in. He manages to remove the rocks but is then blasted by the onrushing water and comes close to drowning.		A large tree trunk has narrowed the well shaft and Hanur manages to use a saw and remove it.
