Plot hook:
Brookwick has a group of halfling hamlets. They grow small orchards, vegetables, and cider. They have a peaceful relations with the neighboring human folk (Silmount). There guards are actually commoners, warriors, and a sprinkling in of fighters and monks. They have a rather small grouping of illusionists. The halfling folk genuinely love life to the fullest, but why anyone would invade their area is a mystery.
Reports surfaced of halfling merchants coming up missing. Or a patrol would go towards the eastern route only to be harried to oblivion. Whatever it is takes fun in killing as none of the items, gold, or artifacts are ever pilfered from the corpses. A town meeting is set to take place. As the Elders come to a decision on what to do, others have taken a more surprising view. The illusionists and military, however small have decided without approval to place fences around the outskirts of Brookwick. They plan on erecting a small clay tower. With the hopes of better defending their location.
