Summary
That night, while staying at a silver mine, leucrotta indeed attack, but they are relatively easily defeated. They stop at Wynn Castle and speak with Radborne Wynn II, learning more about Hartsvale, before continuing on past the River Citadel to Coggin's Rise. Hakam visits a shrine to Annam All-Father, searching for a priest of The Triad and failing to find any. They visit the Weary Giant and meet Livia. They visit Dobbin Manor and meet Earl Ruther Dobbin who gives them a writ to cross over to Castle Hartwick. They are visited at the Weary Giant by Tavis Burdun, the queen's husband, who explains to them the strange ordeal of his son's birth. On the first night of the full moon, Mythlos is cured with the help of Simon's magic. They celebrate the Feast of the Moon and Mythlos and Solisar's birthdays. The travelers encounter a band of orcs on the way but manage to avoid a conflict. The orcs warn of "big, beautiful women that eat orcs" in Ascore.
 * The party return to Jhothûn and speak with the Prince of Jhothûn. They use their first wish, and request a massive diamond, which Hakam magically shatters. He uses some of the fragments to raise Cassiera from the dead.
 * They discuss their next course of action and learn of the history of giants.
 * They take the portal to Choshein, intending to head west toward the High Forest and then north toward Hartsvale to investigate the prophecy of Annam All-Father's last child. They are surprised to find a thick rope hanging from the sky and learn that their cloud giant friends have anchored there in their cloud palace. Nafni and his advisors are convinced that this chance re-meeting is the work of Stronmaus and the Ordning.
 * The cloud palace sails northwest and anchors at Mount Woe, where they meet with the storm giants living there and learn about the saga of Hartkiller.
 * Dropped to the surface by rocs, the adventurers travel west along the Clear Whirl River. They encounter a band of dwarves who warn them about leucrottas in the area.
 * They meet a family, the Pulkdrivvers, who transport ore from the mine to the smeltery. The party agree to escort them north, since they are going the same direction.
 * In the night, while camped, they are attacked by wolves and quickly ascertain that the wolves are actually the entire Pulkdrivver family in werewolf forms. When Hakam uses his magic to slay even the little daughter of the family, as a wolf pup, Anachtyr removes his powers from the cleric.
 * The party argue about the ethics of killing werewolves and debate what to do with the bodies and the family's pulkka.
 * They arrive in Stagwick and deliver the silver ore to the smelter.
 * They go to the castle, where they gain an audience with both Simon of Stronmaus and Queen Brianna Burdun. Once the queen learns that they are interested in her son, she has them escorted out of her throne room.
 * Solisar visits with the deformed verbeeg Basil of Lyndusfarne and learns the truth of why King Camden had been banished.
 * Belvin scries on former King Camden.
 * Tavis is angry with them when divination reveals that one of them, Mythlos, has the curse of lycanthropy.
 * Queen Brianna reluctantly agrees to let her son travel with her husband to Jhothûn, provided Tavis not take part in any battles that may occur. They make their plans to travel over the mountains and into the Silver Marches.
 * The journey back to Choshein with Tavis and Kaedlaw begins. They leave Hartsvale and travel along the Spire Flow between the Ice Spires and the Ice Mountains. Along the way, they encounter a small group of tanarukks, which they trap in a cave.
 * They cross over Adbar Pass and enter the Silver Marches, heading south beyond Citadel Adbar.
 * They are ambushed by a band of invisible goblins riding worgs.
 * They reach the Fork and stay at the Wildlands Rest. The next day, the party splits; Mythlos and Cassiera depart along the Fork Road to the west, escorting Galadrel. The rest of the party continue on with Tavis and his son to the east.
 * They detect that Ilthian is being scried upon by someone exceptionally powerful and begin to take precautions. Jayce sends another message to Hakam; he has found a man claiming to be the son of the ex-wife of a cleric of Gond obsessed with golems, and they suspect that they may finally have a lead.
