Leaving Melanora

The session began with the player characters sitting over breakfast at The Disorderly Dwarf. Their discussion focused on next steps. While some members wanted to consider all the various options that were open to them, others were set in returning to the Dormantown Area. Fagan von Feld was deeply concerned for his family.

As the party was discussing their options, Edgrin Galesong timidly mentioned that he would not return to the Dormantown Area. He stated that he planned to stay in Melanora for awhile, making his living through song. He mentioned that he would stay at The Disorderly Dwarf and if any word came from Elanora Silverleaf, he would do his best to track the party down so that they would get the message.

The party set out, again skirting around the religious community of Arvandolan, home of The Temple of True Aim and the Starsingers of Sehanine. Both military arms have objectives concerning the drow of the Underdark and the party feared that Mazer's heritage could cause trouble there.

In Jaliveth

As the party neared the edge of the Elvareen Woods, the party came upon the town of Jaliveth.

Dozens of tents and other crude lean-tos can be seen surrounding the wooden palisade of Jaliveth. Hundreds of human and halfling refugees fill these camps. They huddle around cookfires and generally look dirty and under-fed. You would have to pass many of the refugees to get into Jaliveth proper.

The player characters decided against entering Jaliveth as a group, and instead send in Alan under the effects of Mazer's hat of disguise. Once inside, Alan spent a day gathering information on the current state of the region.

Some of the things he learned:

• The von Feld family was not to be found in Jaliveth. Alan did find someone that knew the von Felds, but they had not heard from them since before the blizzard.
• Jaliveth is having a hard time keeping the refugees fed. Supposedly, food relief is coming from Selatrath but there are fears the food may run out before then. There is fear that violence may erupt in the camps.
• The Elvareen military is preventing the refugees from encroaching further into the country.
• No one really knows what is causing the Winter of No End, but rumors abound mention evil wizards, Roriport cultists, the shaman of Scaun, and the Church of Erythnul.

Into the Winter

A pack of ogre zombies attack the party.
