[River's Rest, Town Commons]
Fresh green grass, green as the greenest emerald, is soft underfoot and a pleasing foreground for a weathered wooden bench resting in the shade of a graceful willow tree. Chirping crickets fill the air and mingle with the voices of folk who stroll through the commons, and on occasion stop to exchange a tale or two with friends they meet along their way. A dusty path to the south and a riverstone walkway to the north are joined by a tall evergreen hedge which borders the edges of the lawn. You also see an iron-bound maoral coffer, an engraved mithril coffer, the Uramii disk, the Jaimaltz disk, the Lydrift disk, the black Lulz disk, the sparkling Tyebrilas disk, the Earandel disk, some torban leaf, some manna bread and a large wooden barrel.
Also here: the body of Dhairn who is lying down, Greythrone, Lord Zyther who is lying down, a stunned Uramii who is lying down, the body of Kretan who is lying down, a stunned Lydrift who is lying down, Great Lord Lulz who is lying down, Eagolant, the body of Vaedalis who is lying down, the body of Great Lord Rathmond who is lying down, the body of Thalenor who is lying down, a stunned Great Lord Earandel who is lying down, Great Lord Tyebrilas who is lying down

>
The ghostly voice of Rathmond says, "No i seen it."
