On the road back to Cloakwood, the Troupe detours through Beregost, a town unchanged on the surface, but with a current of weariness and waiting. None of them expected the night to end in blood and broken magic.
Vienxay
Betrayed by her master and exiled from Evermeet, Vienxay now seeks revenge.
Journey Back To The North
Aegon’s first raid of the Iron Throne’s mines in the Cloakwood failed, and many of his friends had to be resurrected. Having gathered a new party, he now returns to attempt another assault, and to find Vienxay’s former master so she can have her revenge.
You Must Gather Your Party
Though the Troupe cut down the Blacktalons guarding the Iron Throne’s mine, only half of them made it out alive. Beaten, weary, and half-dead in more ways than one, they retreat to the Temple of Wisdom in the Friendly Arm to raise the fallen.
Window Shopping at the Carnival
On their first visit to the Nashkel Carnival, Neera asks for Aegon’s help to track down the experience wild mage, Adoy. The party encounters the elf, Aerie, whose mentor is being held hostage by a mage known as Zordral. They step inside his tent, not knowing what to expect.
Moving on to the Next Life
Aegon’s Troupe has cleared out the Gnoll Stronghold, but they must return one last time. Aaron waits for a ring that was taken from him by his captors. After talking to one of the men who hurt Vienxay, the Troupe leaves Nashkel for another journey to the west.
Saving the Witch, Dynaheir
The Troupe rescued Aaron from the Gnoll Stronghold, but he has asked them to find a ring that was stolen from him by one of his gnoll captors. The Troupe also needs to find Minsc’s witch, Dynaheir. Edwin believes she is dangerous, but they shall see the truth soon enough.
Death, Rebirth, and Aaron
What was that? Am I dead? I remember hitting the rocks below the bridge and then.
I am back on the bridge. Everyone is still alive. Imoen is approaching us. She tells us there is a mage and a dwarf warrior waiting in ambush.
Didn’t do this I already.
Making Friends

There are a lot of NPC mods in this install, and most of them are in Beregost. So we are going to be looking at a lot of new characters over the next few chapters.
Aegon Ratslayer, Deliverer of Letters
7 Mirtul 1368
When I wake up, I take a closer look at the letters inside Bartleby’s case. I happen upon a letter that is addressed to someone right here in the Friendly Arm. I guess my legend will be as the Deliverer of Letters after all.
Ogre Hunt

We follow the path back to Coast Way. Jaheira spots something shiny in a rock near the path.
