   * General Morvax Umbrahand - An ancient pre-Sundering Shadowfell Warlord who led the attack on the Feywild and later the Prime Material Plane. He is known for his wandering tower and the fact that he wielded the blade Vesperfang, created by the Raven Queen before she went mad.
-  * [[ashriel|Ashriel the Mourning Saint]] - A Daeva known in pre-Sundering times as The Dark Messiah of the Shadowfell Warlords for his work crushing the peoples of the Feywild and his attacks against the civilized folk of the Prime Material Planes.

   * Later that night, the mercenaries return with another voidship and their leader Sithslip the Radiant Undying. This warlock uses powerful plot magic to cripple nearly all of the voidships on the docks of the shard. He calls out that the small settlement that surrounds [[bestial_bites_brews|Beastial Bites and Brews]] tavern has one day to turn over whomever beat up Tiberio and Merto. He leaves with a great, evil cackle.
   * The Homeshard Heroes realize that these Gamma Co contracted mercenaries are probably looking for treasures from the past. The [[the roadhouse|Roadhouse shard]] has three unexplored areas they could be hiding in. An abandoned Shadar-Kai Military Base from early Sundering times, two types of Crystal Caverns, and a Fungus Forest.
+  * The party decides to look into the military base first. They find a tower that once belonged to a Shadar-Kai warlord. They realize that it is magical and can transport itself through space. Unfortunately, it has its "check engine" light on and won't teleport anymore.

+  * The Homeshard Heroes investigate a command headquarters bunker. There they discover a voidspan gate to Flaygallows as well as a torpid voidspan gate to the Empire of Blossoms.
+  * The party learns much from the last remaining records which they piece together as a history of the early [[Sundering]] as the [[shadowfell arises|Shadowfell Arises]].
+  * The iconography here shows how the Ash King of the Feywild fought back against the Shadar-Kai warlords with all their might. It is interesting that the Leprechaun guerrilla force that manages to survive adopted a symbol that looks very much like the [[Gamma Co.]] logo.
+  * The heroes find the mercenaries in the green crystal caverns. They are attacked by a stalagmite monster with tentacles as they try to sneak up on the Malmyrdon guards.
   * At the back of the cavern the Homeshard Heroes find loot, provisions, Malmyrdon ritual makings, and three petrified beings also from the early Sundering period. These three end up being Bartleby, [[Candyland]], and [[Yerbie]].
+  * The mercenaries return on their mosquito voidships. After a great battle in which the ships are rammed into one another, the Homeshard Heroes are victorious.
+  * Reed helps all the travelers to Roadhouse fix their Voidships following the attack on the docks by Sithslip the Radiant Undying. Reed then offers passage on the [[nugget]] for <del>free</del> tips to anyone who was still stranded on the Roadhouse.

   * They discuss the nature of gemstones. Reed points out that there are some beneficial ones like the ones that powered the "Home" Voidship, while there are others that are sinister and parasitic like those described by [[Caelus]].
   * The homeshard heroes venture out into the Fungus Forest and meet a few of the friendly fungus folk. These beings are very much like the caretakers of the Vault of Regret below Flaygallows.
-  * Unfortunately, they also meet the native monstrous stick-men with the head of a fly trap plant known as [[Miscipula]]. They attack looking to slay the Homeshard Heroes' new friends. After a brief fight, Reed and Lith learn the "Cleansing Salve" recipe from the Fungus Folk .
