The party sought Estovion and found him in one of the main areas of the lodge with the guests. The group moved upstairs, and Dario picked the lock to the lodge wing Estovion claimed as his own. They searched some books and found an entry about an item called the Dust Moth and learned the Stairs of the Moon was once a temple to Desna. They also went up into Estovion’s private study and found his journal. Within they learned Estovion had grudgingly arranged the meeting between Auren Vrood of the Whispering Way and Mathus Mordrinacht of the Shudderwood werewolves. They also learned Kvalca Sain had been killed and her heart stolen!
The group decided they needed to get to the Stairs of the Moon. Early in the morning, they went and found Delgros who agreed to lead them to the stairs. About half a mile away, the team settled down for a short rest and a meal. While there, a pair of raging werewolves burst from the pines and attacked! Massive brutes, they stood nearly 13 feet tall! Dario attempted to talk them down, but the fury and bloodlust coursing through their veins seemed to win out. The two tore into the party with blade and tooth, and Delgros was slain. Caerwen’s monk ki allowed him to land powerful, deadly blows. Tigris switched to a silver dagger after landing a brow gasher which hampered his enemy. Caerwen took quite a beating, but Nyssa helped him ride out the punishment and deal out retribution. Soon, the werewolves were all defeated on the ground!
