(Kythorn, 7 of 1374) The band arrives at the Old Observatory, and after quickly dispatching the necromancer guardians (some Tome Motes), they entered the ruined building. Inside, they met several skeletons armed with poisoned crossbows. The skeletons have the marks of the Red Plage, indicating they belong to Alastor family. The bones of his little sister are still missing and they further investigate the place.

Kullen and his band - 2007-02-11

(Kythorn, 6 of 1374) Arriving at the Land's Farm, near Daggerford, Garfied, Malark and Fasmo discover that the graves of the Land's Family were desecrated, and their remains taken away. Investigating the old house, they find an Owlbear nest, and a ripped arm. The arm had a tatoo from one of the mine managers of Daggerford. Further investigating, they find out that the mine manager that uses the tattoo symbol is dead, but Balabar Smenk hired all his former employees.

These former employees are Kullen, the albino half-orc, and his band. Garfield uses his diplomacy (and some money) to buy the information from the thugs, and founds out that Kullen stole the bones for Filge, a necromancer that is living on the Old Observatory of the city.

Alastor the Ghost - 2007-02-04

(Kythorn, 4 of 1374) Further investigating the north caverns, they find a pair of ghouls in an underwater room. In the creature's possession, they find a red lantern. Back at the sarcophagus room, they met again with Auric and his band, that are leaving to recover from the wounds of the weird face trap.

Garfield figure out how to disable the trap, lighting all the lanterns. The group climb again the ramp, and crosses the mouth of the big face, just to find another strange room, full of iron spheres. A single narrow bridge crosses the place. Fasmo finds out that the place is also trapped. But the room had another inhabitant: Alastor, a ghost. He asks the party to bury his remains with his family's, and promises to disable the room's trap if they do this quest.

(Kythorn, 2 of 1374) Garfield and Malark fought the Mad Slasher bravely, and kill the menace. They got Mirwen back in the group and spend the night in Daggerford. On the way, they know Auric's band, with Tirra and Khellek. On Kythorn, 3, they arrive back in the Whispering Cairn, only to meet Fasmo, a gnome wrestler looking for beer herbs. The small gnome helps the party to reach a hidden ramp behind the indigo lantern hallway.

There, they find a trap: a weird face that blow them away. They luckily resists the wind, and went back. Then they decide to further investigate the north hole, finding the Beetles nest, where they battle a Giant Bombardier Beetle and an acid beetle swarm. They also find some dead Seekers in the beetles' nest.

(Kythorn, 2 of 1374) Mirwen and Garfield went back to the Whispering Cairn, now with the help of Malark, a visiting cleric of Helm, acquaintance of Sherlen Spearslayer. The trio went further inside the ruins, finding a strange sarcophagus.

Investigating it, they found out that the sarcophagus works like a key to different exits to the cave. The first one went to a small room full of statues on the walls, but blocked with a huge granite block. Moving to the next one, they freed lots of acid beetles, and a Mad Slasher.

(Kythorn, 1 of 1374) In the miner city of Daggerford, Mirwen, the sun elf, was learning a lot with the town wizard, Allustan.

There, they fought wolves bravely, but didn't find anyone. They found lots of interesting elemental glyphs, signs of an old civilization, that made the old wizard's eyes shine when he found out. He asked them to further investigate the place, as he went to Waterdeep to learn more about the glyphs.
