Hexcrawl 80 - Journey to Runedarth

Dwarf paladin Gemwin Stonefist leads a large expedition of dwarven adventurers and soldiers through the hills and Greypeak Mountains in search of the ruined dwarfhold of Runedarth! With him are forge cleric Bors McCraw, rune knight Jhank Wildpass, and new ranger Hjalmar Heavyhand (with life cleric Grom and his porter Dhosus along as NPCs). They encounter peaceful ettercaps with woolspider livestock, discover some griffon nests and a mysterious grotto cave (unexplored) and the Sapphire Falls along a fork of the Greyflow River. At the ruins of Runedarth, they make contact with Korrin Ironaxe and the dwarves already there, and set about securing a foothold in the dungeon for their troops. The party mows down an orc/goblin patrol and discovers two magical rune circles with beneficial powers. They stay in the dungeon with the goal of retaking the entire dwarfhold for the glory of all dwarves!
