Middle Earth FA63 D&D Game. Fourth Adventure. Journey to Rivendell

It is August 29[sup]th[/sup] and the Party having safely delivered Lorliana and Curunauth to Rivendell are now joining the forces of Rivendell to aid the Dwarves in their war in Goblin Gate. This is a war where all Free Peoples should benefit. King Elessar has a strong interest as Arnor needs trade to the Anduin Valley, Erebor and Dale. Princess Gilraen confides to her friends that her Uncles are working with the Dwarves and the Men of the Anduin Valley to try and drive out or destroy all of the Orc fiefdoms. Glorfindel also is trying to clear Angmar. Ultimately the Dwarves are cooperating as they plan to isolate Mount Gundabad and Khazad-Dûm and then retake Khazad-Dûm. The support from the two Elven Kingdoms of Greenwood has been lukewarm are best but at least they are helping here at Goblin Gate.

The first assault is expected on September 1[sup]st[/sup]. The Elves will mostly be outside in support and to prevent escape day or night. The Dwarves, Hobbits and Beornings are almost all going in as are the two adventure parties. The humans will provide support inside and out.

Here are the watches for the party:
1st: Gilraen, Elfstan and Mulligan
2nd: Ghân and Gwaelur
3rd: Deor and Thoroncir
Miron will be on watch until midnight, Gil-Gandel after. Neither needs as much sleep as the others and both can daydream during dusk and dawn to rest themselves, saving their superior senses for full darkness.
