Location: The Shrine of Amaunator
PCs present: Dalgura, Ellie and Morgrim
Dalgura Ironhammer:
"On the contrary, I am indeed interested in some of the problems you encountered in setting up your shrine. The High Priests always say go forth and spread the word and perhaps one day you too shall have your temple. I know that they usually start with shrines but the Priests also have a tendency to leave out the details of how does one actually go about setting one up."
Mithann relays she simply saved the proceeds from her adventures and let Amaunator dictate when it was time for her to establish a permanent shrine. She spent some time wandering before finally coming to Icewind Dale, on a divine mission to bring warmth and hope where it was needed most.
"You will know when it is time," she adds reassuringly.
Dalgura:
Of course that might not be the ONLY reason I stopped. I heard that you were an adventurer once yourself and since we shall be going out on an adventure in the morrow, wondered if you could tell us a bit about this area. Things like have you or the town have any run ins with the Ice Maiden, Yeti's or the Tribe of the Elk since you have been here?"
Mithann says she was once a member of two separate adventuring companies, The Knights of the Unicorn and The Mantle of Dawn. Most of her former companions are either retired, or sadly, deceased. Upon saying these words, she offers blessings to each.
On the second point, she tells you she knows nothing of the Ice Witch, though she seems genuinely concerned if/when the adventurers relate what they know so far. She has heard of no ill relations with any of the tribes and there have been no yeti attacks against any of the towns, though she says it is not unknown for beast attacks to occur away from the towns.
She confesses that she has lately been preoccupied with more homespun problems in Bryn Shander, namely that she has heard whispers claiming the Ship Rethnor thugs that have recently multiplied in the town are actually lycanthropes. For this reason, a Harper contact sent word south to have silvered weapons brought north, in the event action need be taken to thwart Rethnor's influence over the region.
"I had perhaps thought you were the couriers who brought the silvered weapons, as I had heard of your actions at the wall and had assumed you were Aarun's companions." Aarun, being her Harper contact.
Finally, she says the town speaker, Duvessa Shane, is supposed to hold a public audience soon to address grievances against Luskan thugs by several prominent merchants, the delayed caravan, empty animal traps on the tundra and above all, the early winter and Auril's evident wrath. Put simply, Bryn Shander is a powderkeg right now.
"I have never seen times so grim," she relates, though not in a defeatist tone.
