They succeeded, and returned with the marvelous artifact, the Wondrous Lanthorn. They aided in the construction of the cathedral to hold it, and in the meanwhile fought off an attempt by cultists of Tharizdun to steal it. They traced them back to a long forgotten temple of the mad dark god's, and put an end to the cult. |

This is the town that you forged forth from in searching for Iggwlv’s lair, and where you based yourselves in searching for the lost temple of Tharizdun and the lair of the blue wyrm. A stout wall and gate have been built across the pass, and adventurers now must buy a license to pass through, and a tax of 10% of the treasure they bring back. Voorman Franz gave over the rulership of the town to Gregor Runarm, now Hetman Gregor, as a reward for service to Perrenland, and for being one of the few in the land to have the strength to collect taxes from successful adventurers. One of the Hetman’s duties is to also raise a force able to patrol the pass and police the villages there, which Gregor has done. There are good relationships with a holdfast of mountain dwarves, and a steading of gnomes. A enclave of grey elves lives in a hidden valley also, but they prefer to keep distant. | This is the town that you forged forth from in searching for Iggwlv’s lair, and where you based yourselves in searching for the lost temple of Tharizdun and the lair of the blue wyrm.

You all are looking foward to Freeday, three days hence, which will be the end of Brewfest, and the biggest part of the festival yet. Altendorf is crowded to the brim with locals come in from the surrounding area to celebrate and trade, and with merchants and entertainers too. | |
