Our party of adventuring gals find themselves wandering down a long and dusty road following a magic stone, but something has overtaken their friendly Kobold companion he's just not his usual chipper self. Merlin will have to use his magic to power the guide stone from here on and it doesn't always seem to know which way to go. There seems to be something in the mists ahead. Finally breaking through the desolate ashen desert they find what seems like sand. Great an actual desert. Perhaps Brightstone really is the best place in the Shadowfell.
