===SHORT VERSION===

The exhausted party and rescued prisoners scavenged the cultists' camp and found a goblin book. They continued their journey and encountered a sandstorm caused by the unnatural warmth. Arriving in Tomas's Crossing, they were greeted by the Village Leader <u>[[Bjalien Viadias]]</u>, praised for their mission and paid for aiding his re-election campaign. They also received payment from <u>[[Huberg Greyborn]]</u> as well. At Bjalien's house, they met <u>[[Paumine Sandalwood]]</u> and <u>[[Kadra Tourmaline]]</u>, who asked about Fort Frostfell. Kadra gave them a <u>[[Magic Items#Gem of Brightness|Gem of Brightness]]</u>, and Paumine offered a reward for a captured zombie rat for her to study. The party got a room at the refugee-friendly Weary Traveller Inn run by <u>[[Malaga Taerwain]]</u>, and got free food & drink at Jorney's Tavern, <u>[[Jorney Yovurn|Jouney]]</u> expressing a desire to run for village council on an anti-immigrant platform. 

The next morning they visited <u>[[Bazil the Bizarre]]</u>, pissed him off, but bought a cheap scroll of identify which they cast realising more features of Morthos's sword were still hidden. They inquired about other mages, meeting Cormir's friend, the smithy, <u>[[Orich Stronghammer]]</u> - who mentioned his missing assistant Kylar Birthwitch (the councillors nephew), visited the Safeharbour refugee camp and met the arrogant <u>[[Cadicca LeBlorne]]</u> who also professed a desire to have more of a say in the running of the village affairs and also met <u>[[Sir Brenarform Steelcrest]]</u>, who invited them to join the <u>[[Knights of the Last Bastion]]</u> and helped them read some of the goblin book - which mentioned the worship of '''Gartlemak''' as a way to avoid ''"the Plague"''.  They met with Kadra again who admitted being a sorcerer and in return for providing a full scroll of identify, asked the PCs to look out for a teenage girl amongst the refugees who she worried was her former teacher, the sorcerer <u>[[Merriath the Quick]]</u>, who was mad and wanted to kill and drink the blood of all of her former students to ''"become a dragon"''. Finally they visited <u>[[Isperil Lightwind]]</u> at the <u>[[Temple of Long Light]]</u> who agreed to help them if they needed it.
