Publisher's blurb:
You have secured the area of the resistance base with your recent victories. Now, the rest of the Clearflow River must be secured. The task will be difficult but Althaea has discovered that a powerful fey guardian could help you. She gives you a map. You must reach the town of Drubiev. Just north of it is a fountain. It hides a rune for awakening the sleeping guardian beneath it. The way there is dangerous. Some of the resistance forces will push north to aid and cover you but they can only do so for four days. If your mission takes longer than that, they will retreat and you will be stuck behind enemy lines. All is not uneasy. News of your victory has triggered all barbarians in Faerûn to march to the Hordelands. A few hundred thousand of them come each day. Their numbers give hope to our forces. Have courage but be vigilant. The hordes still surround us.
The party will reach its goal with a ship. You will travel up north using the Clearflow River. Flaming arrows and exploding fiery boulders will be fired upon you. Althaea shall come with you. She will maintain a spell to make the ship immune to most of the enemy’s artillery. You are still vulnerable to enemies who come aboard. The accompanying resistance ships will help you with that. Althaea must stay within the ship only. That ship is your only way through the chaos of battle. Almost the entire area is a battlefield.
