02: Dripping Caverns

General Summary

Father Mullen's diary confirms a large flying object and giants were responsible for attacking Nightstone.

The party follows the Cem River northward towards the Dripping Caverns. Along the way, they're ambushed by Goblins. After defeating the Goblins, one survivor, Plarg offered to join and assist the group. Plarg provides information on the new leader, a hobgoblin known as Swiftarm to violently rose to power and seems to be communicating with someone via letters.
