I was just getting to Ravengro when I spotted a strange creature just before midnight on the 16th. It fit the descriptions the border guards gave me about a beast of Lepistadt. I ran from it and got into Ravengro just after midnight. When I arrived I meet with Gregor and told him what I saw. Then a messenger arrived telling us everyone should arm themselves a monster is loose. We were also told that a huge reward will be given if capture alive. Since we knew where it just was it was a good bet we could find it before the hunters. We were able to locate the beast and corner him. Gregor and Hadhod trying to subdue it Hadhod went down. I was doing real damage with fire as Gregor used his pummel to knock it out finally. We were able to tie it up and help Hadhod with his wounds. We found out the creature appeared to have give up because it did not kill Hadhod when it could of. We sent for the leader of the mod so we could collect the reward but he just wanted it killed running to get the hunter to kill it. So, we went back into the woods and will rendezvous with Kendra in Tamrivena. She is to get supplies, a wagon and a huge cloak to hide this creature hideous appearance. We are taking the creature back and will try and help him earn his freedom.

After resting for 8 hours and eating some food we once again went down to destroy Splatterman. We decide to get the portcullis open but after several tries we did. We went in and found nothing in the cell and no Splatterman. We than went down the passage opposite the one we thought Splatterman was in. We found a hole in the floor and then the Lopper appeared because he was alone we all were able to attack him destroying him before he could even do anything. Then we heard taunts from the Splatterman. We went out to confront him again Kendra was using her magic missile wand to attack him from a distance because the rest of us could not get close enough. He disappeared again before we could get to him. We found him again at the end of the last passage. Kendra was tearing out pages of his spell book to hurt him and just as we were getting close to him he was in back of us attacking Kendra. He almost killed her but we were able to get back to her in time to kill him before he could disappear again. Then we searched out the last area finding the Mosswater Marauder who had the skull with a piece missing just like Hadhod had told us. Gregor told us to destroy the skull first and once we did we were able to quickly destroy the Mosswater Marauder ending the curse on Harrowstone. Vesorannia appeared telling us that the threat is gone and Harrowstone is safe and she can now rest in peace herself and left us. Gregor wanted to bury all the bones in Harrowstone and we did help him and we also looted the place finding a sword in the hole we found the Lopper it was the warden bladed. We found some other items and got all the bones buried in four days. When we return to the city people told us no more strange letters had appeared and things were going back to normal. They were sad that father Grimburrow was really dead. We gave his body over to the acolytes.

Once again a rune was inscribed on the memorial statue. It was an O this time and does fit the name of Vesorianna. We have seven days to resolve this. Gregor went to get Father Grimburrow and it was strange that he does not remember coming with us yesterday but agree to help us again. Since we knew where the Piper of Ilmarsh is we went upstairs to confront him. When we got there we were surrounded by 10 shadow bats along with the Piper. It did not look good until Father Grimburrow used his clerical powers and destroyed all but one shadow which we destroyed quickly. Then we gang up on the Piper and defeated him with little trouble. Then Gregor went around the cells looking for undead. Once finding them we open the cell and destroyed them. In the last cell was a shadow of Charlatan the fake priest. We almost destroyed him but he fled and was able to enter Father Grimburrow body. We were than able to knock the father out when he went to attack us. Not knowing what to do Gregor said let’s take him back to the temple. As we were taking Father Grimburrow unconscious body back to the temple. We were spotted by people from the city who thought that Father Grimburrow was dead. Once we got to the temple we ask for help from the acolytes to purge the spirit from him. But, now Father Grimburrow was awake but controlled by Charlatan the acolytes did not believe us but they tried and failed. We decided to bring Charlatan with us back to Harrowstone. Father Grimburrow suggested that we purchase a ring of featherfalling by using temple funds. We did and I agreed to pay the temple back. We headed back to Harrowstone. We decide to clear out the first floor and when we did we found Vesorianna spirit. Gregor talked to her alone keeping Charlatan who was in Father Grimburrow body out of the room. Gregor found out more information about the fire and collapsed elevator shaft. We went back down to the cell below entering thru the destroyed elevator shaft. When we enter the main room which lead to the prisoner areas we were attacked by four more shadow. Than Charlatan cames out of Father Grimburrow shouting warning to Splatterman we were here. The shadows moved in and attacked Father Grimburrow and almost killing him as we were attacking the shadow a powerful magic missile hit Father Grimburrow killing him before he could do anything. Kendra hit Splatterman with a magic missle from the wand causing Splatterman to retreat. The party split up with Hadhod and Gregor going after Splatterman. The last shadow then attacked Kendra almost killing her. We were able to destroy the shadows but Splatterman had retreated behind a portcullis. As we tried to open the portcullis we heard Splatterman laughing as he cut our escape rope in the collapsed elevator shaft room. We tried to get to him but could not and then he knew we were trapped he attacked us. He almost killed the dire wolf and he hit me with some strange vision. That vision was the river was a river of blood and all the fish are dead. As we were trying to get him he just disappeared and after 15 minutes we said we needed to get out. So, I shape changed into a bat and flew up and got the rope attached again so we could escape. We decided to go to Vesorannia and rest in her room she told Gregor she would protect us as we slept. So we did.
