Notes
Meldor's orb shows a frozen orc that seems unfreeze and starts to move. Dr. Byron Dark thinks it might be the leader of the Arctic Explorers Society Captain Icetrek.
Meldor can message Captain Icetrek and Arranis
Captain Icetrek doesn't respond. Arranis does. He is stuck in the city hiding. We think we should get him out. We see a smoking building in the village. So we sneak close. We drop Dr. Byron Dark inside as a gasious cloud. But he can't see anything because there seems to be smoke filling the house. We have an idea someone is barricading something below the floor. We hope it is Arranis.
Under the cover of some magically summoned walls and pass without a trace we manage to get up to the window and make an entrance. Still within smoke it's hard to find anything. A zombie gets killed inside and in the basement we find Arranis who is using an endless smoking bottle to produce the smoke.
Lots of undead over run the barracated door of the building. We manage to get him out. Arranis tells us that Captain Icetrek messaged him. Artos knows there is an ice sculpter (The Sculptor) in Frostgate. who likes to create ice sculptings from people.
Elinian Stomrider is send a message to pick us up near New Ciarta. Elinian Stomrider tells us the airship is close and can pick us up.
We leave Tanbarrat through the mountain pass. When we are outside we can see several clocked figures enter through the gates.
Meldor identifies the crossbow from Jacomus Valerius during a Long Rest
Dr. Byron Dark thinks he can make an additional source of heat using elemental energies. Preferably without killing anyone.
On the way to New Ciarta Bronn Matias shows up and suggests he can supply us souls that are not shared with Tanbarrat. If we go to the Burning Lake and close the portal.
Dr. Byron Dark shares the details. We say no thanks
We discuss how to follow up next. Lets make a list of allies we have regarding.
We also need to look into how to deal with parts of the Ember Empire. We might need to take the Ember Empire#Generals of the Ember Empire one by one
