Ironfang Update!

In June:

We continued with the fight at Fort Nunder moving from the front line troll defense to a male and female troll that seem to be more powerful than your previous foes.

In July:

The female Troll was finally defeated and the forts exterior became quiet. A search of the room she occupied revealed a secrete door going right into the side of the hill. After the lock was picked the group went inside to find 2 plaques pointing to the two ways to go. The northeast route was chosen and the party was immediately gifted with an arrow trap that pelted them and caused some moderate damage. As they proceded, a bow golem started shooting at them and by the time combat was in full swing a large metal golem joined the fight as well. We ended the night as both golems were dispatched.

In August:

The party kept exploring the vault and found another trap along with the second key needed to open the inner vault. After acquiring both keys the party used them gain access to the inner vault and discovered there were more guardians. After another fight silence fell again, and this time for good. The vault had already been pilfered through some time in the past, but there were still several items that proved useful. After some looting and resting the party found the burial place of the two Rangers that built the vault. It was decided that they would not investigate them further so they just left.

After leaving the vault and starting to head towards the final fort, a familiar aerial acquaintance descended to parlay. Krynn updated the party’s map with the current locations of all Hobgoblins in the area and notified that the fort they were heading to was already compromised. He told them there was a black dragon running things there with a druid as an associate. He wished the party well and warned them to be prepared before engaging the last fort.

The party made their way towards the final fort.
