Template:Rise of the Runelords chapter

We returned to Whitewillow with Lamatars body. When we got there the ghost of Myriana took the body of her lover and did some strange magical ritual with his body. At the end of it she died for real and he was reborn as a centaur. I forgot to ask her if the hags were her sisters

We returned to Turtleback Ferry for the night. Once there we realized that all problems had been solved and our mission was fulfilled. We only needed to go back to Magnimar and report. Early the next morning we set out for Magnimar. It was a cold winterly day, but the trip was uneventful.

When we were back I settled in the foxglove townhouse and showed Kaven around. Once more I was reminded of the lack of kitchen in it. We all got to see the mayor and he thanked us and payed the reward he had promised. I was formally made baroness in a big ceremony and the Foxglove family honor was restored. I'm not sure what that means. I guess that if it has anything to do with what people think of the ones with that name I'm not sure that was fully true. At least not if you asked around on the countryside next to the Foxglove manor. There were a lot of parties we were invited to and I went to most. At least in the early winter. The high society parties tended to get boring, and when I wanted to make them more fun Gloriana told me that was no way to behave and stopped me. I thought that it would almost be a less thrilling winter going to parties than when I lived on the streets of Magnimar. Instead I returned to Turtleback Ferry to announce me being baroness of hook mountain. Velicia and Honeypot joined me and Kaven on the trip. When I got there, the small town was covered in lots of snow. Sure we get snow in Magnimar too, but never that much. Velicia left for a trip in the wilds and Honeypot left for Whitewillow. I only stayed a couple of days. Enough to talk to Maelin Shreed and name him as my stand in. He wasn't as thrilled as I thought he would be, but he will do the job well, I think. Probably better than me at least.

In search of a milder winter I left the mountain and went to Foxglove manor. At first I tried to hire an new keeper, but after the fate of the last one it wasn't very easy. Kaven and I tried to repair it enough to survive the winter. We also closed up the entrances to the caves below. We often visited both Sandpoint and Magnimar, but stayed most of the winter on the countryside.

It was a beautiful spring day when Velicia gathered us. A bank wanted to hire us to get something back that had been stolen. We met with a woman the bank and she told us that somebody had broke into their vault by paralyzing the guards and had stole a sword and some money. The sword was a special sword they kept for a client and was a burning sword of lust, a priceless artifact. They even knew who had done it; Tirana. They had used magic to find out where she had gone. She was in Kaer Maga.
