Since the end of the battle with the Mercenary army of dark elven soldiers the army around Tarragon Keep has not diminished. In fact, it has grown. Over the past several weeks thousands of troops have marched through midway and arrived at Tarragon Keep. The army that is marshalled at Tarragon has not diminshed with the threat of the dark eleven army gone, it has increased.

Along with the massing of this Army of Silverthorn troops a contingent of 500 dwarven warriors in full plate armor of shining mithril came marching through midway. They stop long enough to have a drink of Bombours best and then move on continuing the march to Tarragon.

Several days after that a group of gnomish engineers travel through midway heading to Tarragon. Even the normally talkative gnomes say very little about what they are doing (although they still manage to talk incessantly as they inquire about all manner of things).

The very next day a small group of humans from the corsair isles stop in the tavern on the way to Tarragon. The group says very little, keeping to themselves and having a quiet drink and a warm meal. It is very evident that this group is much more accustomed to being on a ship instead of on land.

Something is definately going on as the strange travelers continue to visit Midway, all of them passing through on the way to Tarragon keep.

Each day several hundred soldiers of silverthorn pass through Midway. Wagons full of food, ale, lumber, iron ore, weapons, armor, and all manner of supplies can be seen traveling the road to tarragon.

This winter will be interesting indeed.
