Details

This item is said to date to the halfling-elf battle at Ragalatan.

Loresong

A hastily erected encampment of small leather tents appears before you. Halflings scurry purposefully between the tents, many carrying short spears or bows. Just outside the camp, a large herd of short horses shift slowly, like water disturbed by a gentle breeze.

Again the Halfling camp appears, this time much closer. Screams of despair echo from off in the distance. One Halfling emerges from the largest tent in the camp, followed by a retinue of well-armed soldiers. You notice he is wearing some bright red fur-trimmed leathers, a heavy fur cloak and a polished brass helm stamped with intricate geometric patterns.

You notice a throng of Halflings, each holding a spear or a bow above his head. They are gathered before the Halfling in the red leathers, who stands easily on the back of a tall pony. The roar of the crowd is deafening, but you manage to make out the word, "Ragalatan."

The sound of a loud horn blow erupts suddenly as a series of images of a mounted Halfling charge flash before your eyes. Cries filled with pain echo all around you as you notice the confused elven lines straight ahead. The tip of an arrow falling straight towards you comes into focus for a moment, and then all is black.
