Boldhome offers our heroes a brief respite after their journey, but Vargast is not willing to let his voice be silenced, as the Orlanthi warrior is inspired to raise it in the occupied capital.
The road ahead leads back to Jonstown, but not without the help of fresh horses and preparing for what might await them in Boldhome.
Runegate offers our group a spot to rest and reflect on the path which led them here, but for Elara, the need to worship Maran Gor in her own way always comes first.
Along the way to Runegate, the group finds something strange by the side of the road, and choose to investigate.
