Gontor is a dwarf who is distantly related to Nars Blackbeard. Rilithorne noticed a theft in the shop while imprisoned during The Burning Tower. The party investigated.

The activities the agreement precludes are primarilly the establishment of residences, logging activity, or anything seen by the fey as 'defiling' the countryside. Simutaneously, random murders were occuring in Orussus. The group suspected the redcap was responsible. After unsuccessfully trying to capture the redcap in the act, the party headed north to the faerie woods. On the way they foiled a bandit robbery at an inn. Once in the woods, the party was captured by the Fey Lord, and Persephone was fed tainted pommegranite seeds, which made her unable to eat normal food, and thus doomed her as a prisoner of the Fey Lord. The Fey Lord did wish to rid himself of the troublesome redcap, however, and agreed to send some of his minions to lead the party to the Redcap.

[I][U]Unresolved issues[/U]:[/I] Why was Trimble attacked by Dire wolves? Why does he live alone in a hut in the woods? What will the Fey Lord try next to escape his captivity? What would happen if he did escape? Where are the druids now, who are descendents of the powerful Fairbloods? [/QUOTE]
