Diplomatic action
The party stop by Barthen's Provisions and the Lionshield Coster to restock on supplies and weapons before heading to visit Sildar at the Town Hall.
En route to the Town Hall the party, once again, engages in a scuffle with the Redbrand gang. The party shows the gang no quarter and kills them on the steps of the Town Hall. The townsfolk show no ill will towards the party, but are nonetheless scared of the increasing violence in their home.
Sildar quests the party with rescuing Gundren, Kumar's cousin, from the grasp of the Cragmaw Goblins. He advises the party speak to the druid, Reidoth, who know the location of Cragmaw's main base of operations deep within the Neverwinter Wood.
Sildar is accompanied by Nundro Rockseeker, Gundren's brother, who explains that Gundren holds a map to Wave Echo Cave. A wealthy location lost to the ages that the Rockseeker's have been seeking out to restore and add to their portfolio of mines.
Sildar also quests the party with saving the town from the Redbrand Bandits and the capture of their mysterious leader, The Glass Staff.
