What awaits the fellowship, and have they seen an end to the wonton destruction caused by the seemingly dispersed cult?

Now the party must weather the aftermath, as the carnage of this battle was far more reaching than before

However, far more damage was left in the wake of this onslaught as the engagement covered several blocks and resulted in multiple bystander deaths. The stakes are higher and questions permeate the air.
