The Quest for the Whorled Cup begins ....

Sven Erikson, has resumed his search for the Whorled Cup , they are looking for the first part of the map.
They have voyaged far to the south, and are nearing their goal.  Their journey has taken them a couple of months. The climate is hot and the coastline they examine for a landing place looks unfamiliar with strange vegetation. When they landed for water a couple of days ago, they found the lush forest was full of strange creatures and eerie sounds. Now Sven and Elfric consult the book of Tanwold - to check for the landing place - a headland described in the book is seen in the distance - on they go, soon they will be ashore.
