On
the road back to Oakhurst they realized that the trade route through the
ride was not as safe as it used to be, a small band of goblins from the
dragonspine mountains descended upon them.
After easily dispatching of these week foes, they continued their journey to
Oakhurst.
Just outside of town they found the
dessicated body of the local blacksmith, the dwarf Rurik Lutgehr. A quick search of Rurik revealed two small puncture wounds, making them wary of vampires in the area.
Upon entering Oakhurst, they soon realized that there was indeed a
problem. The only residents left in the
entire town were all packed into the Ol’ Boar Inn.
They refused to let anyone in for fear that they were “nightwalkers”.
Curious of the fate the two supplicant the left behind they continued to the Temple of Lathander. Finding the once luminous temple shrouded in darkness, they
once again battled Sir Bradford, now turned into a vampire. After defeating the supplicant vampire Sir Bradford they started to cleansing the temple of the vampire taint. The next morning, dawn revealed to Elexan the entrance to the vault below where he prayed the Relic of Lathander that he faithfully brought here would still be safe. To his everlasting relief, Elexan foun the Dawnbringer, safe
in the vault below. Although once he secured the Relic, he heard a voice in his head he never hoped to hear again. “I do so enjoy the hunt” Vampire Lord
Ambrogio cackled.
