They started by heading to Majirah, the desert kindgom, and the first step was at the dwarf kingdom of GARM. There they met with LORD BAILSHAR, who welcomed them openly. Although Bailshar thought the dwarves' lives had been to easy simply protecting their borders from Kaftar and goblins.
He agreed to enlist aid against the Nagas if Majirah also pledged help. When asked about the ruins under Rhotas Barav (that the party discovered months ago in their first adventure), Bailshar said they had been excavated and the artifacts brought to Majirah for further study.
In Garm the party also met NAHRINA, the Dwarven High Cleric. While discussing events with her, the adventurers learned that she was concerned about Haozhu, the Earth Sage. She said herbs and other elements of the land were rotting. Haozhu dwelt in an old cavernous hall called the Road of Ruin, which could be accessible from the mountains or, more treacherously, through the Scar.
The party left Garm and traveled via magic carpet to the Scar. During their descent they were attacked by a demonic winged creature, a VROCK. While flying precariously down into the scar they battled the vrock, with Ardeshir eventually jumping off to slam it into the surface down below.
The party found HAOZHU, the Earth Sage, a giant hedgehog. They learned that the earth was being carved out by malevolent forces and that it was having a deteriorating effect on the spirits and creatures of the land. They left Haozhu and took the magic carpet to Majirah.
RECAP:
- Haozhu the Earth Sage is a giant hedgehog. Of all the sages, he is most connected to the land and its spirits.
- Garm is ruled by Bailshar, who pledged to help against the Naga if Majirah similarly joined the fight.
- The artifacts found in the ruins beneath Rhotas Barav were sent to Majirah for catalogue and study.
