The party entered the sandy dungeon of Colotlxalli and found an enormous room with a large stone in the center marked with glyphs. A massive scorpion stood in the room surrounded by ecstatic cultists. They all moved to attack the party at once! The cultists hit with several macuahaitl blows but were quite ineffective, overall. The giant scorpion fared better, hitting several in the team with its pincers and stinger. Fortunately, none of the party were poisoned. The group finally brought them all down, and Singing Mammoth jumped up on the stone which sank into the ground and revealed a hidden chamber!

The group descended and were attacked by leevers and red tektites! Initially outnumbered, the party took several hard blows from leever slashes and tektite slams. However, the upper hand did not last, and the enemies lost allies quickly from several well placed critical hits. In a few moments the team was victorious and ready to search the room!

The team advanced into the cavern and found the spring blocked by rubble. A massive moldorm and four peahats moved to attack! Standing Bison maneuvered into the front and was mauled by the combined forces arrayed against him. Blazing Sun moved up the side and drew the attention of several of the foes, and the Wolf Spirit and wolf came up the other side. The whole time Singing Mammoth kept pressure on the foes with flights of arrows. Standing Bison was driven back by the deadly foes, and Blazing Sun was rendered temporarily unconscious. Singing Mammoth dropped some of the enemies, and Wolf Spirit and wolf killed some more, buying Standing Bison time to refresh and return to the fray. Finally, the team defeated all of them and slaughtered the moldorm! The found an amulet and ring and unblocked the spring. With the water flowing, the team can return to the dwarves successful!

The party returned victorious to the camp of Rides-the-Moon and reunited Laughing Horse with his daughter Runs-with-Deer. Rides-the-Moon agreed to perform a union ceremony in one month. He informed them a captured rider from the Nightmare Company revealed another fragment of the Dawn Seal could be found in Cōlōtlxalli somewhere in the Sands of Bleached Bones. The party rode out with a group of braves and found themselves pursued by the Nightmare Company. Eventually, they lost them and made a camp for the braves and their horses to wait. The party then paddled kayaks 100 miles upstream of the Drowned Turtle River and set out to find a chieftain of the Tribe of the Flame, the dwarves, in the desert. The party met with a dwarf named Howling-Winds who agreed to provide camels and directions to Cōlōtlxalli in exchange for the party investigating why their watering hole dried up.

The party set out toward the now dry spring and were attacked by a huge mob of blue and red octoroks! The fighting was intensive, but the team quickly dominated. The octoroks were soundly defeated. The team then went down into the gorge and were attacked by leevers and peahats! The leevers tunneled through the sand and attacked from below while the flying peahats smashed into the team from above! The fighting was brief, however, and the team killed all of the carnivorous plants surrounding them.
