Locations

Trail

The trail leading to the beach is littered with traps, including mines and tripwires. A dying man is found after the first section, who may transform into Orin if she has not been met at least two times.

Beach

In the cove near Rivington, you can encounter members of the Guild, led by Farlin, fighting a band of the Stone Lord, led by Cairos X: -220 Y: 94. Entering the area will cause the party to be dragged into the conflict, where they can either help Farlin or fight both groups. Otherwise, the two groups will start fighting if they are left alone for long enough.

If you stand back and watch or choose a neutral path, you will default to supporting the Guild. WARNING: As a Bard, suggesting that the conflict be resolved by Flyting causes both sides to become hostile. Cairos drops Corpsegrinder and Farlin drops Gleamdance Dagger. Killing both groups grants the Inspirational Event Cleaning up the Scum (The Dark Urge background). Supporting the guild earns the Inspirational Event Backing the Established Players (Noble background).

One Mind Flayer Parasite Specimen can be found atop a barrel X: -225 Y: 107and two more can be found on the ship X: -214 Y: 131.

Passageway

Along the southern cliff-side is an opening to a passageway X: -233 Y: 84. This passageway was being used for smuggling by the Stone Lord and his men.

Some paintings and other loot can be found here, along with a trapped chest containing the Bonespike Boots.

Ship from Moonrise

Docked at the beach is a ship that sailed in from Moonrise Towers. On the ship is some loot, including two Mind Flayer Parasite Specimens.
