    The inspiration for this episode comes from Galatians 5:16 “But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you won’t fulfill the lust of the flesh.” (From the WEB Translation).
    We set out on our first true journey with the company as they follow Gandalf to a hidden path through the Weather Hills. What dangers await our companions? What challenges shall they face on their path? Join us to find out in this Chapter of our first Parable from the Pearls of Scripture!

  • Chapter Three
    Jan 26 2026

    When last we left our heroes, they had begun a pursuit of the captain of a rag-tag group of bandits. The company suspects that this fellow has some connection with a more dangerous villain whom they have been sent to hunt down.

    The pursuit is short, and the company manages to catch the bandits while they are divided. Some of them are disgusted with the captain, whom we discover is named Cullen, and his dubious nature. It is at that moment that Cullen reveals his ruthlessness by outright murdering one of the dissenters.

    A sharp fight breaks out as the company moves to rescue the remaining dissenters from Cullen’s wrath. The company emerge victorious, but at a terrible cost. Celepharn the Ranger has been wounded twice by Cullen, and is lying at death’s door. His fate now lies in the hands of Myrtle, the anxious Hobbit from the Shire.
