The Order departs from Forochel
They had been in Forochel for some time.
The Order had accomplished much, in at time. Led by Thandanar, an expedition to the west side of the Ice Bay found what is believed to be the Ship of the Last King.
When a remnant of the Dourhand clan was found to be making new weapons using "blasting-fire", the Order responded by mustering a large force with Lossoth and Longbeard volunteers to besiege the fortress of Zigilgrund. This came at great cost, for the madness of the Dourhand dwarves led them to destroying themselves Zigilgrund in a great blast of fire.
One of the Dourhand survivors spoke of a Ranger being held captive by the nearby Gauredain of Barad Gaurhoth. Many recalled the disappearance of Faethuil, son of Forngarmo when they last encountered the Gauredain. Whether this Ranger was him or not, they could not leave them to die at the hands of the Gauredain... and so they raided Barad Gaurhoth. Though the Gauredain were numerous, the Order defeated them before they could sacrifice the Ranger, none other than Faethuil, before escaping and retreating to the Lossoth settlement of Pynti-peldot.
And so, peace once more returned to Forochel. After doing all they could, Thandanar, now using his moniker of Moralphon, spoke to the Order, explaining his plan to return to Annúminas, and then to Bree-town.
"It is there where we shall aid in bringing forth the King's peace", Moralphon proclaimed.
And thus began their exodus from Forochel.
