Freezeday, Truth Week, Storm Season, 1600
We climbed the Hero Fall this morning passing into the Kingdom of Sartar. The Sartarite tribesmen guarding the top of the cliff exacted a heavy toll from the Etyries merchants before allowing the caravan to pass. Each of us, from lowly bearers to guards and merchants were required to petition these warriors for permission to pass into their tribal lands. Such is the Kingdom of Sartar, far more barbaric than the kingdom of Tarsh, and one still dominated by the many tribes that compose it.
I reflected on Fazzur's war preparations and hoped for his sake that he would be wiser than to lead his men into such an easily defended redoubt. The many sacred shrines and hollowed graves of warriors that lined the fields atop the cliff paid testament to the warriors that had fallen in the many battles that Hero Fall had witnessed.
We shall stop tonight in Sartar's second city of Alda Chur.
