- The heroes travel to the cottage to find proof for the eladrin
- confrontation with owlbears
- find books explaining how Saravas Ardavan gave plants from feywild in exchange for eternal right to the land for ancestors
- return to pool of istus to let Berrian know
- Berrian reiterates they will not leave; even threatening military action
- Garrick suggests military might could be useful to quell the threat of orc inhabitants
- Berrian moved to trust heroes, but suggests more work required to earn his trust
- Berrian goes on to suggest the heroes finding information on the fate of his father would seal his trust
- Berrian’s father was an ally of the Knights of Bahamut who inhabited the Abbey ~200years ago
- Berrian’s father’s name is Zandrian Velfarren
- The heroes decide to return to Winterhaven to get Padraig’s
- Another group (led by a human) had fallen in the feygrove around the abbey, just 1-2weeks ago
- Analastra describes the band as a female, strong, resolute, part human part orc henchman
- One was a dwarf, the other was a female arcanist, another a warrior like Analastra
- Discovered quite by accident, no help w/eladrin. The band went on their way
- There was a sense that the four of them were not alone…
- Upon returning to Winterhaven, the Winter Guard splits up
- Garrick, Isak & Odus go to see Padraig, consulting again with his brother, Christoph
- Odus shares that the eladrin in the grove might not be completely sympathetic to the plight of padraig
- Padraig is clearly showing some disdain for Eladrin; not at all interested in ‘sharing’ or ‘accommodating’.
- Christoph shares that the watchtower, one of the few structures maintaining it’s dweomer, enables scouts watching from it to see for miles beyond normal vision
