"The Heroes of Icewind Dale have defeated Iriolarthas and destroyed his Staff of Power. While they wish they could spend more time investigating Ythryn, more terrible apocalypses await them. Vellynne wil return to Icewind Dale and this place will once again be isolated from the world. The world... the world is in bad shape. There aren't many people willing or able to dedicate themselves to any sort of common defense. At this point, people are surviving, and barely, at that. The fiendish hordes were headed for Icewind Dale until Auril caused an avalanche and locked them all out... at least for the time being. After taking once last quick look around for anything valuable, they head for the Saltmarsh region. The heroes head to the Hamlet of Manistrad to deliver a letter to Brad the Champion... and save the world.   Roll Investigation, Perception, or Insight twice - once for yourself and once for a combined party roll. The results determine what kind of loot you obtain on your way out of Ythryn."""

Manistrad founded this hamlet in her youth. However, when fiends first appeared in the region, she dedicated herself the the local temple. She became a war priest in defense of the Saltmarsh Region. Brad, the human champion of the Saltmarsh Region (and a good friend of Lord Chad Feldrin) rejected the traditions of royalty and the empire. He spent his youth adventuring with Lord Feldrin instead of serving in the Norse Military. Feldrin was pardoned, but Brad was never welcomed back to the empire. He made Saltmarsh his home, and Brad is now the rather effective leader of the Saltmarsh militia. He and his forces are known for being a formidable opponent on and off the battlefield. Lopuq the Tortle is a powerful Archdruid who is devoted to protecting the flora and fauna of Saltmarsh. Together, Brad , Manistrad, and Lopuq have dealt with threates to the region. Now that Moloch's hordes are approaching, they need help to defend one of the last bastions of humanity on Valmars. The Heroes of Theros have just returned from their epic adventures, and have sailed into Manistrad. To them, it's only been a year, but the to the citizens of Saltmarsh it's been decades. It seems even longer than that with the looming apocalypse. The Heroes of Icewind Dale arrive shortly after the Heroes of Theros, and they work together to defend Saltmarsh from Moloch's armies. The hordes will be here in only one days time! Hopefully, they will be able to learn more about where these hordes are coming from.
