    A Message Posted on the Black Anvil Mercenary Scouting Watch Boards

    “Our scouting has determined a good pattern on their active hours of operation. The Bloody Fist tend to be active from the hours of 10 o’clock in the late morning till just past the witching hour of Midnight. They seems to retain some semblance of normal sleep patterns that we do and rest at more normal hours. This is not to say they don’t have some active at Twilight hours, but they do sleep despite their bold claims”

    Hook: Warhorn sounds and Drums pound as the Bloody Fist march from the woods and begin their assault
