The party fought and slayed an ancient winged beast in the Western Wall. They then hiked through the mountains and made their way south to a small fishing village known as Forog. They learned there that ships no longer come from Gale, all of the village's soldiers have left, the invasion of the west has begun, and that Gale is already under heavy siege. They purchased three horses and are making their way to a castle between Gale and Rugo, held by the lord Oakright.
