Expedition
Adventurer's follow the faint trail of clues to Seavale, then to the Thieves Guild, and finally to the Defiled.
After a long journey and several side-quests, the adventurers arrived in Seavale. They quickly tracked down the Black Sun Trading Company, a front for the Thieves Guild. Through guile and no small amount of coin, the adventurers charted the BSTC Throat Cutter (a sea-faring Caravel) for an expedition to the source of the large delivery to Grindstaff's warehouse in Terra: South Drak Isle, a forgotten and distant land on the southern tip of the Drak Isle, beyond the Wall to the west. Zephir, the Air Genasi Wind Wizard and Captain Bilge, the Half-Orc were introduced to the adventurers at this time. Arriving in Vanth, a seemingly abandoned port village, the Defiled immediately surrounded and imprisoned the ship and its crew under the charge of multiple crimes, including smuggling and treason against the Defiled people. The crew that made landfall were placed in The Mansion, where they met Deverick, who gave some (incomplete) context and history of their current situation. The adventurers proclaimed their innocence and desire to right any wrongs, so Lady De'Fyll gave them a task: free the Defiled bastion of Nex from the control of Ash Mo'Dan's undead forces. If they succeeded, their intentions would be proven pure and terms of their release would be discussed.
