I had a blast at this, it went real well, thanks to the druids, I died 3
times at the Druid ring :), but made it to Freeport in time. I was near the
lead inthe charge, and made it, right behind Gnkenross who was being chased
by a skellie, I made it up to the ledge and was nailed by a Fire Elemental,
the second time was the charm for me. This was a hoot.
