Lured Into Darkness
Kuiper reads the letter. He furrows his brow and is silent for a moment before speaking. "You say you found this in the Gleaming Glade? I know only bits and pieces of the story of the original Parlfray, but it seems that the stories have some truth to them...
"Perhaps the orcs we ran into are somehow linked to the Spire Keep, as the letter indicates they were fighting orcs there. Unfortunately, I don't know where that keep is. Parlfray Keep doesn't have a spire, though it is about the right distance from the Hardlow Woods.
"You ask me, there are probably only two people who would know anything about this: Old Grizzler in Milborne and Count Parlfray. Get Old Grizzler enough to drink and he'll gladly share whatever he knows. Count Parlfray, on the other hand, is pretty tight-lipped about his family's history, from what I hear. But I also hear you've earned his good graces, so you might have some luck there.
"You are all welcome to stay the night here. My home is nothing fancy, but it's dry and warm."
