This is his journal.Dear Deryl,Hope you are well. Mother and father are in good health, and the gold and enchanted armour I brought back from the Vale have eased our debts. Yargo seemed especially pleased with the hide, and I hope the gold reaches Strake soon enough.Mother was upset that you were left behind in the vale, but I concocted some tale about Bella being a former chaperon to one of the Sturgleson daughters, and she seemed relieved. Corvin remembered Bella’s attitude and concluded that you were in good, if somewhat stern, measured and staid hands!I am writing to request that you allow myself and an acquaintance a room in the new Inn. Somewhere out of sight that she can conduct more shadowy research. I think you can imagine who I mean. Things have gotten dangerous for her in Grimsburg, as she has stumbled upon some important research concerning the Elemental Eye.Let me know if a room could be drawn. I am happy to pay for it, and understand if you would rather me spend another night in the barn.Your brother,DerrenFrom A Brief and Annotated History of Grimsburg and Environs, by Geron the Prodifigent, 877... and while Derren was not to be instrumental in preventing calamity to the same degree as his companions, it is argued by many sages that his work in Grimsburg, most notably the ‘Declaration & Proclamation’, was to give the future heroes an edge in preventing the great sundering of the North ... Had Derren been prevented from nailing his decree to the doors of Skaldsholme, the Scarlet Stone Academy and the Temples of Odin and Rao, not to mention spending a small fortune mailing it to various rulers in the South, who knows what could have happened?To All Who Live Free,Let it be known to scholars, priests and rulers of fair and noble heart that a great danger is upon us. One of the primordials of old is being stirred from its sleep. Gods and their followers must unite or face the fall of the world, the end times known locally as Ragnarak. I am no prophet or doomsayer, I seek no reknown or reward. I am a scion of a small house from out of Grimsburg, and in my travels across the Nentir Vale, my companions and I came upon derelict tombs with tyrants slumbering beneath a symbol: the flaming elemental eye. Have you heard of the golden skulls? Do your history books speak of murders unleashing the beast? Come now – followers of Rao, learned Asmodeans, brave thralls of the Skanzi gods all – all of you know this! All the sages have heard tell these tales. Verify for yourselves the murders of Grimsburg. Listen to the sages of Skaldholme. And at last, send only your bravest and most pure of heart to the Androsax Manor, deep in the Nentir Vale. I will be waiting for you.Of course you may also do nothing, as you may have done so many times before.Derren Androsax</blockquote>
