Ringeirr introduced the party to Solveig Ayrdahl, high priestess of Milani in Whitethrone and head of the Heralds of Summer’s Return. He explained their mission, and she informed them she could help. She is in contact with the remnants of the Iron Guard, the ousted military of Baba Yaga. They are willing to rise up against the Winter Guard, but they are afraid of a white dragon named Logrivich. The dragon has taken residence in the city clock tower. If the team can defeat the dragon and fire off fireworks off the tower, that will signal the Iron Guard to attack the Winter Guard surrounding the Dancing Hut. Solveig also asked them to see if they could rescue a singer named Bella who was kidnapped by Logrivich. The party agreed and set out to fight their way through the ice trolls stationed in the tower so they could engage the dragon.
The team went and bought several flasks of alchemist’s fire and traveled to the tower. They went through the bone gate and discovered the statues outside animated and damaged weapons when struck. Greta cast obscuring mist to help cover their dash into the tower. The group moved in as Deska tried to slow the statues with entangle. Inside a troll opened a door and found the party pouring in through the front entrance! He and his companion yelled in rage and attacked. Deska knocked the troll down using thunderstomp as Magnus came back and chopped the creature viciously. Greta cartwheeled into the room and brutally struck the troll as well. Alfbern cloaked Argun with invisibility, and Ten-Penny used her great stealth to sneak into the room. All Might tried to leap the troll as well, but it slammed its axe into his chest! Meanwhile, Svala cartwheeled in as well, and she ignited some of her alcohol in a makeshift Molotov cocktail to burn the troll to death.
Kenwrec and Ringeirr struggled to get away from the statues, and finally Tiswichtt had to pull Ringeirr to safety. The team shut the statues outside and barred the door. Meanwhile, Ten-Penny snuck up and dealt a sneak attack to the remaining troll. The team swarmed in and burned it to death as well.
