The caravan came under light orc attack before successfully reaching the border and making the trade.
En route back a light force of Covian scouts intercepted us - but they were defeated.
In an unexpected turn of events the pirate fleet again returned to threaten our city. This time cannons were brought to bear on their ship forcing a landing at an encampment north of the city. We took the fight to them there and summarily dispatched their entire crew - taking no prisoners.
Now Altmere has a meager supply of cannon shot - largely used up during the attack - with which to defend ourselves from future pirate attacks. But not enough for a sustained engagement.
