Book 3: Eldritch Dreams
With Kali the Seeker's book in hand and Zachar the Reaper removed from the Tomb of Lost Souls, the Chapter of Gold prepares for a long journey into Ios.
- As Asra begins her transformation into the Goddess of Spring, her bond to the spirit of Scyrah grows stronger. Unfortunately, there is a darkness that pierces her spirit. Goreshade the destroyer still walks the halls of the Moon Arch. He has taken the fort of the Seekers, and has Kali the Seeker.
- With the magic of scrying, Bartok gains vision over the Iron Lich Zachar the Reaper, and his nefarious dealings in the Forbidden Temple. With the support of Shanta and Goreshade, he experiments on the corpses of dead Gods and seeks true immortality.
- As Caitlin restores the power in her ancestral forest, she begins to hear the spirit of the forest. Shanta is still after Kevin, and while she is alive neither will be safe. The trees also whisper of feral warpwolves in Drek Lake, perhaps the pack can be restored to their former selves.

Goals
Ios has fallen. Cryxian corruption spoils the waters and Shanta has taken the capital of Shyrr. With the Seekers scattered, the Retribution of Scyrah broken, and The Dawnguard stretched thin hope is slim. The Enlightened Raiders, led by Entropy, seeks to put an end to the corruption and claim the legendary treasures of the elves, but the Chapter of Gold might just beat them to it.
Hooks
Issyrah
Back when the Retribution of Scyrah was an outlaw organization, its members maintained a secret headquarters in the City Below. Even after they had been accepted by Iosan society, they continued to store secret plans, weapons, and other resources in the bowels of the salt mine, which can be accessed by a lift system hidden in the Fane of Scyrah. The former members of the Retribution who were outside the borders of Ios when Scyrah was slain would love to get their hands on this forgotten store, as would the numerous Seekers who have learned of its existence, and they have ample coin for adventurers who might help them reach it.Relations
