She stopped a moment to really take in the delicious aromas coming from the meadery before continuing her way towards the city. In the distance, she could start to see Pelagia Farm and what seemed to be a struggle of some sort. A very tall man was busy pounding at the ground with a large wooden mace. When Joanna got closer, she could see that the man was actually no man at all, but a giant stomping away at a group of warriors. The party was trying to bring the giant down, but they seemed to be having trouble getting close enough without receiving massive blows from the gigantic creature.

She stopped a moment to really take in the delicious aromas coming from the meadery before continuing her way towards the city. In the distance, she could start to see Pelagia Farm and what seemed to be a struggle of some sort. A very tall man was busy pounding at the ground with a large wooden mace. When Joanna got closer, she could see that the man was actually no man at all, but a giant stomping away at a group of warriors. The party was trying to bring the giant down, but they seemed to be having trouble getting close enough without receiving massive blows from the gigantic creature.
