The League makes their way around the northern part of the desolate ghost town, only the occasional silent lightning flashes in skies to the east and north to be seen. Occasionally taking to the sky, Azreal sees no moving from the town, only broken and smashed buildings, debris and semi-collapsed walls and towers, trash and discarded items littered about.

Nor does he detect any specific sources of evil, just the general bad feelings produced by this desolate landscape.
As the shadows grow deeper the group quickly again finds the Lightning Rail that continues on deeper into the
Mourlands, unbroken but the stones blackened and ‘dead’. Neville and Henry again look for a suitable spot for the group to camp for the evening…

Bedding down for the night, the group sets their watches starting with Fury and Neville (assuming Azreal will wish to get sleep to recover spells UNLESS you are going to sleep in for the morning).

…Neville detects the tell-tale rustling of someone – or something – approaching the camp site with some stealth. He hears at least three distinct sounds, coming from the east, the west and the north…
