See part one here. After some discussions, the party set out for Thunderspire Mountain. I described what Fizban (eleven Wizard) knew about it since we established that he had visited it before in his researches.

Heya all, I more or less expected to stop playing from late November until mid January. However, by a strange coincidence, we all (i.e. the 6 players and myself) managed to be free on December 19th! Joy! Warming up with the Band! Some of the group made it to Math’s early enough so we could […]
