The funeral is simple and brief.  Once the dead are honorably buried, your group steps a few paces away, to decide what to do next.  A minor snowstorm has just begun--very light, the snow does not obscure your vision, but may be a harbinger of worse yet to come.  The sky remains just as grey as when you first stepped out of the ship, giving the impression that no time at all has passed, though you know several hours have gone by.  To the North, massive, forbidding mountians loom over you, casting dark shadows across the land.  Thick, ominous clouds conceal the mountains' distant peaks from your view. "I think we should head back to the ship," Karthak says.  "Quentin will want to know what we've uncovered.  And I am worried that those ice creatures may have attacked the ship while we were away."{OOC}Just so everyone is aware, Karthak and Toshanharath are now offically NPCs.  I will take over playing them at this point (though they will likely be spending most of their time abord the ship).{/OOC}Oh, here are your experience point awards up to this point in the story:Barkey: 1,000 [900 (combat) + 100 (roleplaying)]Krug: 1,000 [900 (combat) + 100 (roleplaying)]Sorrow: 1,050 [900 (combat) + 100 (roleplaying) + 50 (solving a riddle)]Floe: 1,000 [900 (combat) + 100 (roleplaying)]</blockquote>
