- "Ah, Uncle Oris. At last we meet. "
- — Dalamar
This week begins after the battle with assassins on the road to Evenfar with Uncle Oris.
Turing Oris Over to Dalamar
After failing to persuade Oris to enter Dalamar's tower and failing to use command 'follow' on him, the Vincent and Tudagub drag a kicking and screaming Oris inside. Abigael is remorseful of the betrayal, having grown fond of Oris during their travels. Dalamar greets Oris kindly and the priest seems calmed by his demeanor and joins him upstairs. The wizard dismisses the party with little thanks, implying only that they are even for the mishap with Sir Brightblade.
Deciding Which Path to Take
After delivering Oris to Dalamar, the party is faced with the dilema of which of several pressing issues to address next. They know of a dragon terrorizing Black Water Swamp. They also know that Istavan Felstar has apparently put a price on their heads. A visit with Thor Fletcher reveals that the Free Cities are on the brink of war with Palanthas and that rumors implicate Palanthas in the ogre attacks. The party votes to deal with Istavan, with only Tudagub electing to hunt the dragon, and they set out. As they leave town, Abigael is finally talked into putting on her ring and she sees people enslaved through the eyes of a large hateful creature, thus adding another problem for the party to contemplate.
