Story : Climbing Caer Caradoc

From Ars Magica

Stepping out into the morning sun, dark shadows still clung to the western sides of the hills that faced them. Not far from the road, the farmers' fields ended, turning rapidly into dense forest that covered the remaining distance to the hills, and covering much of their sides. To the North-East sat Caer Caradoc; easily spotted among the lower prominences on the eastern side of the vale.

The old road ran from the front of the tavern in the general direction, and was moderately busy with people walking or riding in to Church Stretton to attend the Sunday services.
