When we play next, it will be 3 months since you last visited the Goat dungeon. Your home base has been renovated, including a stable for your donkeys. Also during this time, Ogilvy shares some stories of the land west of the Dawn Forge Mountains.
It's a separate culture with most of the gods being different from your own. The people have pale skin and lighter colored hair. A caravan will traverse the mountains every once in a great while. This allows for some sharing of information between the cultures.
One story Ogilvy shares is The Legend of Saint Brynned's Abbey found near Lune Peak within the Dawn Forge Mountains. There once was a small kingdom called Yore found within the valley near Lune Peak. "Yore was a kingdom of Kings, Queens, and Knights. Still remembered in the ballads of the bards" according to Ogilvy. "All that remains now is a small outpost known as Jora's Inn and Emporium."
The Abbey was built in honor of Saint Brynned who was known for her miraculous healing powers. A "secret garden" exists within the Abbey. It is said that a mortal with pure intentions can collect the tears of Saint Brynned within this secret garden. The abbey fell when Grusom, the last abbot, was corrupted by Chaos and attempted to reach the secret garden using a foul demonic portal.
Ogilvy's has no interest in the Tears of Saint Brynedd, but his brother Seamus does. Seamus lives in Hammerfast which is located west of Dawn Forge Mountains. Seamus is willing to pay 5,000 gp. The Tears can be used to fully heal, revive the recently deceased, or destroy a single undead.
In order to get to the mountain valley of Yore and reach Lune Peak, you must first cross the Blood Plains of Esh which should take 3 weeks. Then navigate the Dawn Forge Mountains which should take 1 week.
There will be random encounter rolls. There will also be the hazard of becoming lost and stranded. I have made contigency plans for that. I guarantee there will be an adventure regardless. You will not just starve, unless you are determined to do so.
