Magic Mouth keyed to the tattoo on Adric's arm.  "Fellow member of the Foundation; turn back until the lone pine; take the game trail until a gorge with Irian lightmoss. When the dawn rises, -"

Adric lead the company toward the game path while Asryn looked for traps and Barricade mapped the area. Adric got lost, however, and lead the company to a different gorge. Three figures, one taller and broader than the rest coming from the other direction, approach the company. As Krazz firebolted the ground infront of one, it dove into the ice and became hostile. Gryson separated Barricade from the two behind the company with a wall of fire instantly killing one of the figures. The success did not last, however, as Asryn, Julia, and Krazz were all downed by a cone of cold that hit the entire party. Adric was able to aid the three of them, and they were further healed by Gryson. After coming to, Julia was able to finish off the second figure, who had teleported to the top of the western ridge. Seeing that the witch was casting a devastating spell, Krazz attempted to counter the spell, but was unable to. Gryson then attempted the same with no success, but Barricade having a flash of genius was able to aid Gryson in his counter. The witch lashed out, but Adric was able to cover himself in a shield, and as Asryn dodged the attack he magically shifted the one aimed for Gryson's heart, pushing it off target. Barricade dashed at the witch, landing a terrible blow before Adric cursed the witch and killed it with a precise eldritch blast.

Barricade learned that they are in a Rizzian manifest zone, and the three figures were constructs from that plane. Thinking that more may manifest, the company immediately left the area. After a time, Adric found the trail again and led the party to the correct gorge. There, Asryn summoned his hut and the company camped for the night just outside gorge waiting for the dawn and whatever it might bring.

In the morning, Adric realized that the last sentence fragment was likely the first half of a passphrase. When Asryn's familiar went out to scout, it found a snowy owl perched nearby carefully watching the hut. Barricade thinking it was a familiar, destroyed it to find that he was correct.

Going along the wall of the gorge, Barricade collected some of the moss. Krazz felt the wall until his hand abruptly fell through. Asryn under the safety of invisibility poked his head through the wall to find two people pointing crossbows at the entrance, and a woman with a wand in the back.

Kobold tribe of 30 or so were meandering around the star peaks. Violet was sent to identify and investigate them. Upon inspection, she surmised they were Emerald Claw (Bone Knight, light provisions), and tracked them to their camp. She claimed to be part of the Dragonhawk Foundation.
