Synopsis

After freeing a messenger from the Lost Ones and meeting a bounty hunter called Gilgathorn the party is called back to Brindol. There the platinum sword they recovered earlier (RaR) speaks to them:  they must take the sword to an abandoned githzerai fortress, defeat the gnolls that infest the place and perform a restoration ritual to free the sword's occupant. The partry is attacked by mercenaries and joined once more by Gilgathorn, who is waiting for the best moment to stab them in the back. Finding the fortress they battle Fangren and his pack, and repurpose a portal to the Elemental Chaos to restore Amyria.

Thoughts

Continuity Notes

• Consider having Szagyn make an appearance in SRoUF as the Lost One mage who ambushes the party
• Do a brief description of Gilgathorn when describing the various members of the assembled masses at the council meeting (SoBW). I described an elf, patch over one eye, bristling with weapons, leading to speculation that he'd put his own eye out on one of his many bristles.
• Consider replacing Alys with one of the kidnapees from RaR, or foreshadow her in RaR.
• When the party travel to Brindol, be sure to describe the picturesque village of Talar and the Green Dragon Inn as they pass through (see BtMT). Talar is about 25 miles west of Brindol.
