Landfall
To my Family,
I am writing to let you know that we have landed ashore. We are surrounded by rocky crags, and high cliffs, and I fear we have landed in the wrong area. In fact I am fairly sure we landed wrong. We knew that we needed to sail west for a long ways, and then turn south, but I fear we turned too soon. Several days after getting to Gailoth we fund a couple of sailors who were of like mind to us, and were willing to help us journey across the seas into the human lands. We purchased a long boat, and prepared to sail. In our preparations we went over the old sea charts, and began to argue over how accurate they were. Our sailors thought they were vastly outdates due to the thousand years of mists, and I argued that the lands could not have changed all hat much in a thousand years without some vast godly power that we would have felt. They agued that the mountains from the sky showed that the gods had been active, and that they were correct. Eventually we decided on a course, and set sail.
I fear that our sailors chose their own route which had us going south more than west. Though we had agreed to go west for several days, we quickly turned to the south, purportedly to make use of the currents. After two days of this direction we saw land. So we turned west again, and ended up with land ahead of us as well. Soon everywhere we looked had cliffs rising out of the water, and behind us we were sure there was more land. Our only options were to land here, if possible, or turn around go back, and try again. We opted to make for land, as we were all quite sick of being stuck on the boat, and not being listened to. So we began to search the shore for a cove we could put in at, or a river we could sail up. I never knew Sellador was such a mountainous area. After a day of sailing along the shoreline we found an inlet. Sailing up the inlet we eventually we able to put the boat on a sandbar, and go ashore.
We have now been ashore for a few days, and going is very slow. These letters will not reach you unless I make it home, so writing them helps me to know I will make it home. Thus far we have only run into a few creatures in the mountains. We are traveling south, and hope to run into the shoreline we had hoped to land on, or into a forest where we can all feel at home soon. Thus far we have seen no humans, and have had no struggles. There was an incident with a mountain lion, but it ended well for us. I will write again when I know more, and we have met a human.
