They are about to break through into their first burial vault in the Barrowmoor southwest of Helix. Their guide, Brother Jasyn, has been injured by a giant constrictor but was saved by the two Seekers and isn't in too bad a shape.

Tomorrow (real-time) they'll break into their first crypt (on 23 Oct. 204 Post Ravaging, Scarlet Horizons time), and we'll see how they fare. There are monsters to defeat, traps to survive, treasures to gain, and another level to attain. And, crucially, they must get to the bottom of the goblin shaman, Gursk Spiritspeaker's, visions about a looming undead fate for Camp Scarface that will come from the marsh.
