Tieing In Shackled City

[Stile De Mornay]

So, I'm running the Red Hand of Doom. The group is 7th level and about to descend into the Ghostlords lair. Despite urging from me they're pretty determined.

A couple questions.

1. They'll be 12th - 14th level when they finish. What would be a good entry into the SC main SL? (Adventure?)

2. With the characters I've decided to run a "dream sequence" to run a little one-shot with a SC adventure. Give them some foreshadowing via my new PCs Cleric of St. Cuthbert that is a "chosen"

This will not only give a decent little 'break' to the do or die of RHoD, but will give something for them to jump start from later in the campaign.. and! give them some much needed XP as they proceed into the Lair of the Ghostlord.

Those familiar with the Shackled City plot line I'm thinking something along the lines of when they're off to search for Alex Trevical (spelling? I've not got my books with me...)

But, nothing within the actual city. I don't want them to realize they're in the volcano city. I also ofcourse want it to be a challenge. So, tweaking the SC adventure will be needed most likely.


So, there it is. Ideas? Suggestions?

I noticed my second question isn't very clear.

What Shackled City should I run them through for the 'dream sequence?'

Following the guidelines above.. what would be a good one?
