//Note: This adventure comes from the module "Escape from Sembia" by Chris Tulach.//

=== August, 1119 ===

After fleeing the town of Saerb, the party heads off the main road to escape the 
pursuing local militia.  They stumble across (and kill) a group of Hobgoblins 
(who are uncharacteristically deep in civilized territory).

The next day, they follow a little-used trail through the hills in hopes of 
losing their likely pursuers.  However, they soon find out why the locals avoid 
this path as they are beset by a group of undead skeletons.

After defeating the skeletons, they rejoin the main road -- only to discover 
that the guards have somehow organized a patrol to engage them at a bridge on 
the border with [[Akersim]] territory.

In addition to three berserkers, the waiting patrol contains a mage and a person 
who they later learn is a "Shadar-Kai", a race of extraplanar beings who dwell 
in shadow.  After a difficult fight, the party is victorious and finally makes 
it to the relative safety of their home land.

However, the experience leaves them unsettled.  What was supposed to be a simple 
delivery mission has drawn the attention of not only a regional militia -- but 
also some person or organization with significant magical resources!
