SEER charges the band of adventurers to seek out the stone giant Kryshilir at the Seven Stones. He will give us guidance in finding Hotun-Shûl and once we find it, we must learn what they can about the frost giant Jarl Ryndölg and his ancient, powerful axe called Øksavmakt.
+ potion of Fire Giant Strength, portion of Superior Healing, Scroll of Antilife Shell

• Downtime Activity: Student of Stone. Illsenstaad has chosen you and you alone to complete his life’s work and put his soul to rest. By spending a total of 365 downtime days (these need not be spent all at once) possessed by Illsenstaad, allowing him to tell his stories and carve them into the living rock of Hotun-Shûl, you gain the Student of Stone story award. If you are a dwarf, possess the Guild Artisan (mason or stonecutter) background, or are otherwise proficient in mason’s tools; you complete this in half the normal time.
• Downtime Activity: Dreamwalker. Kryshilir has taught you to look beyond the veil of the world and navigate your dreams. By spending 25 downtime days, you travel to the Seven Stones and meditate under Kryshilir’s whispered guidance. Upon completing this downtime activity, you gain the Dreamwalker story award.

Fresh from an extended rest above ground, the warband returned to explore the west half of the complex. They faced a serious challenge when a quartet of water wierds, all guardians of the graveyard Lake of the Ancestors, set upon them far from shore.

After dispersing the elementals and swimming to the beach, they discovered the strange blue firelight was kept by The Blue Lady, the specter of a priestess of Yurtrus (orcish god of Death & Disease) as she stood watch over the Heroes' Vault and the honored dead of her clan.

Proceeding up a narrow tributary of the lake, the band came across a shallow in the river surrounded by a sandy beach. From the rocks attack six galeb durr a large rock elemental.
In conversation with the last of the rock creatures, it warned them to turn back from the ruler of the darkened sections beyond, the One Who Gives NightMares to the Never-Dreaming.

There was a well in a village, sorta. New quest to Cleanse the Healer's Hall.
A slight kerfuffle when Grisch got possessed and sorta chain lightninged everyone a bit.

The Warband descends into the tunnel discovered under the ruins of Bloodskull keep. They discover a desecrated chapel to Ilneval, which they cleared of wights, destroyed the zombies of a beholder, an ogre, and two dwarves. Across the room they explored a room holding the wraiths of three legendary orcish heros.

The spirit of Ganash, Tusk of the North, recognized Densch's tenacity in holding the ways of orcs, even though he had been reincarnated, and granted Densch his greatclub, Frostshock.
The banshee of Yutriel, The Primal Scream, blessed the orcs for Grish's ferocity.
The wraith of Klannk, Defiler of Wizards found no arcanists among them and inspired them with orcish sign for power.
