Journal

  • Betraying unexpected warmth, Lady Iceheart invites you to use her true name, Ysayle, before confessing her bewilderment at the unlikely alliances that fate is wont to forge. Follow her and your fellows to the west, and enter the Dravanian forelands.
  • You have left the snowy fields of Coerthas behind you, and set foot on Dravanian soil. Inquire of Ysayle how you are to proceed.
  • After a brief discussion, it is decided that the party will stop at a nearby village to rest and make inquiries before pushing on towards Sohm Al. Speak with Marcechamp at Tailfeather to hear what the road ahead might hold in store.
  • Marcechamp welcomes you to Tailfeather. Upon learning of your intention to press on to Sohm Al, the leader of the hunters declares that dragons are not the only dangers that await you to the west...
