Synopsis

5th Day of Tarsakh in the Year of the Sudden Journey
Leaving the perils of the Stonemarch behind them, the group head east and north to meet up with Altair's Talons at the northern range of the Cairngorm mountains. A lone peak with a shattered outcrop awaits them for the meeting point; before they attempt to cross the mountains through the orc-guarded pass and finally reach the Nentir Vale.
Finding a magic circle within the foothills they start a chain of events with the music of the wind that ends in a blast of lightning and thunder. Reeling from the shock they recover to see an insurgence of goblinkind that ends in a battle that they just about win. From the blast is born a female dwarf and the group take her under their wing before travelling north in the mountainous foothills to find the meeting place with the Talons.
There they find the Talons under siege and combat the orcs that harass them, but not before one of the ogres in the foes' group collapses the cave entrance that many of the Talons may be sheltering in. After defeating the orcs and ogres and rescuing the Talons from the cave, the group march onwards, finding the gatehouse to the mountain pass.
Attacking under darkness allows the group to swiftly despatch the courtyard orcs, but now they try to enter the gatehouse itself.
