Its been some months now since my brother Glognar disappered. For the first few days we; our mother and me didnt think much of it, we were often away for days at a time with duties and chores. After two weeks past we became concerned. I searched the hills for a fortnight to no avail. I went to my cousins in Erebor, they had not seen him since last i was there with him. I went to Dale and Esgaroth too, my luck was no better. Soon weeks became months and with father past away a few years back and Glognar now gone mother wants me to find what has become of him. She would acompany me im sure if she were able; alas she is not, she is dieing and we do not know how long before the darkness takes her. My mother took hold of me and said "you must search further afield, go into the lands of men to the south and the west." We felt in our hearts that he is alive, I swore to her then i would return with him or news of his fate. Even if the news is dire she would rather know before she dies, she would like to know if Mahal has him, awaiting her at the Halls of Mandos with his father........
I prepared for my journey east and left two days later. Once i had past through Esgaroth the next man i saw was in the Town of Bree, there my search began. It was disappointing to hear that none had seen or even heard of Glognar, but i expected as much in truth. While i was there i made some coin aiding the town against goblin raids. A few days i was there trying to find out what i could helping the locals and making some coin in the process, apart from the goblins the work there was mundane. I soon moved on. I was told i may have better luck in Tharbad to the south, so i collected my belongings from Inn of The Prancing Pony, payd the owner and made south for Tharbad. Nothing happened on the way, it was a boring journey but i had high hopes. I arrived in Tharbad and did not like what i saw, one of the first things i saw was a guard beating unconcious a skinny elf laddy simply because he did not have is weapon sheathed, quite a savage beating too i felt sorry for the lad. He came to shortly after so i helped him up and went on my way after a few brief words. I found an Inn to stay; The Greyflood Inn, after a good nights sleep i will see what Tharbard holds for me. The Inn Keeper Mathas should be a good place to start.
