In the year 2563 at magereign's end, four members of a traveling party and their guide gathered at the edge of the snowy timber, the party is as follows

Kra-yiax - Myren saurian fire-mage
Trassar - half orc fighter, ex-Selari knight squire
Kara - Kitarian (human) ranger
Urag - Karthasian Assassin/alchemist
Flint - Dwarven heavy archer

           The party begins their journey through he frosted stands in single file their guide a human ranger known as Kara leading. The party heads east for a few days, until they finally come across a weathered stone pillar, and a sone road now overgrown with weeds. to the north they can see ruined walls and parapets, against the suggestions of their guide they decide to explore the ruins, only to find up ahead a large group of miners with only a few dozen guards (flying the rukemian colors) before they can make conversation or are even noticed by the soldiers,the sun goes down. one of the miners swings his pickaxe hard and breaks through to the underground cavern, instantly a snakelike creature emerges from the gaping hole, composed of only greenish mist it begins to slaughter everyone in the camp (excluding the party) by surrounding and incinerating it's victims. a few horsemen begin to flee from the dig site with the mist-beast trailing behind.

      The party waits for a while in stunned horror. after a quick meeting they reason it is safer to venture into the ruins, since the creature is outside. soon after dropping into a dusty entrance hall they are attacked by a group of eight rat-like creatures, Trassar recognizes them as skrell from his home country of the coalition. Kara failed to bring her bow out in time, Flint (being paranoid) always had his crossbow loaded and managed to hit a skell in the knee just as it jumped. the rest of the party drew their weapons and attacked Trassar delivered a deathblow to one with his battle-ax, Urag began a knife fight with against two and Kra-yiax began to hurl fireballs at the attackers.
               The battle ended when seven of the eight fell leaving only the one that Flint wounded was still alive. they decided to keep it around to help them if they needed a way through the ruins (the fall was too great to jump and the walls to slippery to climb).

the session ended here because a lot of them had stuff planned.
And I need feedback on how good this was.

The mist beast is a great twist...I would recommend better punctuation and grammer as this can be difficult to read. Overall, I think its a great start.
