...Where The Company of Heroes Gather and Bond

With the first group gathered together, Julian closes his eyes, picturing the spot where he wishes to travel. The air around the edges of the group begins to shimmer and glow. An instant later the very space around them collapses into the center, occupied by the helm upon the wizard's head. A slight popping sound can be heard and they are all gone.

While it seems as if time passes excruciatingly slow, it is not long before Julian returns, his eagle form fading away as he lands back among those remaining. Before you can gather, however, Korgazhar's attendant calls out softly. "Giants!"

Moving to take stock of the situation, you see a trio of giants walking along the valley floor, heading to the steading. It looks like, perhaps, a hunting party, as with them are a small pack of wolves; large wolves, at that. They approach the east gate of the compound and you watch it open. The wolves howl and bark as they run in, followed by the three giants.Gathered once again, Julian concentrates on his destination and the ground beneath your feet suddenly fades away. A nauseating sense of vertigo passes over you, and in an instant you find yourselves standing before a cave mouth. Your steeds are outside, while the party has begun to set up an encampment within.

The casting of the spell complete, your mind reaches out to the tiny eye you have fabricated from the ether. The land around you comes into focus as you send the eye toward the steading, swooping out of the hills and across the land. Several minutes later, the structure looms into view. It is huge, even larger that you had originally thought. You judge that it will take you at least 5 minutes to just circle around the outside of the building one time.

After a few minutes of investigation, you manage to get a solid understanding of the sheer size of the giant steading. Over 300 feet to a side, it has an open area along the northeast side. Through the slats of wood, you make out a dozen or so monstrous wolves that stand fully four feet at the shoulder. Numerous chimneys dot the roof, though the pipes are small, and only someone of extremely small stature would be able to get down them.

At the south side you see the guard tower, and when you pass by you see that there is a lone giant there, sitting and looking out over the landscape. Near him is what looks to be a large cask of ale, which he drinks from.
