16th Ches 1458DR The Griffons next decided to investigate the remaining buildings. On one, the door seemed to have collapsed and seemed inaccessible, and peering through a crack in the door of the adjacent hall to the south they saw a vast cavern of ice filled with yetis feasting on rotten meat and blubber. The western hall seemed abandoned: detritus scattered around the floor yet a small room was present at the back that contained chests and the south-eastern hall appeared

16th Ches 1458DR The Griffons pondered on where to go next, eventually settling on the Uthgardt longhouse. Scouting from outside, Fenris and Amadeous saw around 8 of the tribesmen inside, some of them standing around a cooking pot with the rest tending to 2 huge mammoths at the back of the hall. Korrak decided to make an attempt at subterfuge, explaining how he would pretend to be a newly-captured thrall who could serve them poisoned ale. The rest of the Griffons opted to w

22nd Alturiak- 8rd Ches 1458DR They resolved to hike back to Mirabar. The weather remained bitterly cold in the mountains, with the thick snow and strong winds making every step a struggle. After 2 days of hiking they approached a small pass and Fenris sensed something was wrong and they were being watched. He crept forward and saw the forms of two yetis preparing for ambush.

21st-22nd Alturiak 1458DR The Griffons head back to the main chamber with the statues and Harshnag lifted the steel hammer and touched it to the “Ise” rune. The mists on the portal cleared and a room became clear on the other side. Cautious about what was on the other side. Carlan sent her imp through the portal.
