"Responding to a request for aid from an elderly chocobo rancher, the Protectors gathered outside of Limsa to ride to Cedarwood hoping to beat a gang of thugs to the ranch. Arriving just before the coming trouble, the Protectors were able to establish a forward watch and secure the rancher's prized racing chocobo inside the ranch house. Soon after, a large group of men wearing red sashes were spotted on the path just north of the ranch approaching quickly. The Protectors, still hoping to resolve the situation peacefully, allowed the red sashes to approach and attempted to parley with them. An ostentatious man stepped forward for the sashes demanding even more gil or the bird to be turned over. As the negotiations seemed to come to a halt, he reached into his cloak and produced some kind of alchemical potion that produced a large cloud of smoke obscuring the house and signalling his other forces to begin the ambush on the house and scouting position. Two of the sashes infiltrated the ranch house from the rear where they found the well prepared Protectors waiting for them. At the forward scouting position, the Protectors scurried for cover as the sashes unleashed a barrage of arrows. Chaos erupted in front of the house as a large melee ensued.
When the smoke cleared, the Protectors had successfully fended off the ambush and protected the ranch and its occupants. Several prisoners were captured and brought to the local authorities for trial. However, the ostentatious leader of the red sashes was not found in the aftermath. He seemingly fled the scene under the cover of the smoke."
A special thanks to Eldrick Northe who graciously volunteered to Co-GM the event and to Ryslo Suramlo of the Knights of Eorzea FC for reinforcing the Protectors on this mission!
We got some great feedback and will be posting our next event shortly once we have the details!
