Just got back from a wild trip through the northern forests of Britannia. The goal was simple: find some forgotten ruins rumored to hold ancient relics. What could go wrong?
What went well: Found the ruins! And the relic! It's this heavy, ornate ceremonial axe. Looks amazing. Managed to fend off a pack of wolves on the way back without getting a scratch. HP's still looking solid at 55/55. Also found a small stash of gold, so I'm sitting on a cool 1000gp now. Not bad.
What went wrong: This axe weighs a ton. I'm currently hauling 88 units of... stuff... and my back is screaming at 75. Had to leave some lesser loot behind to even make it back to town. Walking speed was basically a slow, shameful shuffle.
What's next: First, a long stop at the blacksmith to identify this thing and hopefully sell it for a fortune. Then, I'm buying the biggest, strongest backpack money can buy. After that? The Whispering Caves are calling my name. Heard there's a nest of giant spiders down there. Their silk should be worth a lot. If I'm not back in a week, send a search party.
