This is a journal about a man investigating troll hoards and finding the troll totems.

A Study on What the Trolls are Hiding

Day 1

I've been scouring around Angmar to examine the trolls. They're a greedy bunch, hogging everything to

themselves. I plan on going to find out just what exactly they are stuffing into their hoards. I've already

set up a base in a safe location. I will go out and begin my quest once I'm ready.

Day 2

Right now I'm hiding in a bush waiting for the trolls to come out of a hoard I found. I've already waited for

several hours, but I am a patient man.

The trolls finally left, so I made my move. I must say, these trolls may be wealthier than the dwarves. Piles

of gold and silver everywhere, along with chests full of treasures, like antique armor, weapons, and even more

gold and silver. While such valuables are exciting and all, there's something that really caught my mind. I

found some stone carving that looks like the top of a trolls head.

The trolls came back sooner than I expected, and I managed to escape with my life and the stone head carving.

Day 3

I found another hoard to scour. Same thing as last time, with the priceless ancient artifacts and precious

metals and such. However, this time I found another strange stone carving. It seems to be a torso with arms.

By the looks of it might fit with the head that I found yesterday.

I have confirmed that the two pieces fit together like a puzzle or a totem.

Day 4

There must be another piece to this statue carving, so I decided to look through yet another hoard.

I have found another piece, and it looks to be the final piece. It's a pair of legs with a foundation, so I

assume that it is the base of what I now call the troll totem. I will assemble it once I get back.

Day 5

I am severely exhausted right now. I got spotted by some trolls, and they gave chase. They may be low in

intelliegence, but I must give them credit for their persistence. I finally lost them and made way to my base.

I used the last of my energy to assemble the troll totem. I must say that it would look good out in the front

of my house.

I'm running out of supplies, so I believe my expedition across these hostile lands is coming to a close. I

will leave for home tomorrow after a good rest.

I was awoken by the sounds of howling wolves near the middle of the night. I was going to fall back to sleep

until I noticed something strange with the totem. I took a closer look and realized the head had opened!

Perhaps this totem contains something valuable or magical? I will investigate tomorrow night.

Day 6:

I've decide to hold out for one more day in Angamr to see to see if there's anything inside the mouth of this

totem. I have waited until night and now I am prepared to check the totem's mouth. Due to the lack of usable

tools I have left, I decided use a bone to see if I can scrape anything out. I will write down what I find, if

there is anything to find.
