The battle over, the Tribe began to assess the encampment.  Me quickly went to the cages and found 10-15 people, and a bit frantic she asked for help to free them, and mighty Vimak clambered over and slammed down his hammer breaking the lock and free them.  The prisoners were moved into the large tent, and the Tribe turned noticing Artemis frantically looking around the camp and rushing off to investigate a cart, finding little she cried and went to ask the prisoners if they knew where Willak was.

They did not know where Willak was, but when the Tribe asked for Shuray, she did come forward and Remus’ wife was found.  After this, the Tribe went began to look, with Evresh rushing to the tent that Aaron came out of, tripping a trap and causing an explosion which Evresh put out using a thunderous explosion.  After this, EVresh found some schematic’s and sets of notes for a small handgun, a second note about increasing life and forced air, and a mostly burned book about portal creation.  Vimak also looted miscellaneous loot from the main tent as the prisoners arrived, and Me found an array of herbs on She who binds the earth and a purple goo she was smart enough not to taste or touch.  Entropy was not this smart, and he touched the goo, getting a full body shock that knocked him unconscious.

Allyria took this chance to have a battlefield make out session with Aldor, much to the surprise of the Tribe, when Evresh received a message from the Anakatholi that Grog had defended the tribe and turned the orcish horde back.  As this resolved Evresh quickly lost interest in the rest of the camp, as Arkenite found Mag Ux Thracka’s metal cannon arm, and dragged it out of the pit, which Evresh began to study immediately.

After the loot settled the Tribe began to ask Artemis who Willak was, and Artemis told them Willak was her daughter who is missing and there was a note that she was held in the Ebon tower, which none of us were familiar with.  While this conversation happened, Vimak began to BURN the entire encampment down, requiring the Tribe to quickly evac the prisoners currently resting in the main tent, and Aldor offered the use of an airship to the Tribe and offered that they could rest in EnThanUs whenever they wanted to.

On the ship Artemis and Entropy had a conversation with Artemis asking about some of the members of the tribe, and Entropy being 100% relatively sort of honest.  When the ship arrived at the Barrows, the Tribe climbed off the ship, and began the funeral preparations, with Vimak requesting an upbeat part atmosphere.  The tribe began to play music, raised a disco bail, with Evresh on the music box, entropy on the bag pipes and Allyria on the Peruvian Pan Flute.

At the culmination of the ceremony a portal, a doorway opened, and a priest of the Raven Queen arrived, who said he was sent by a powerful man (Aldor).  The priest looks at iMac, and says the goddess watches your progress and you have great things in your future.  The priest then reaches to Me, and say that the last wish of a dying man was to allow her to visit with Vaulk one last time.

With that, a portal opened to a mountainous scene, with ice, snow, and no priestess or anyone else in sight.  There was a shadow on the ground, and Me turned noticing that Vaulk had arrived and was standing there to say goodbye.  Me and Vaulk had a nice visit, and Me returned telling the Party that they needed to resolve Vaulks ice statue quest or the world was in danger.  With that, the priest turned to Me and gave her one raven feather, telling her this would allow Vaulk to return to her one time.

The Tribe then talked some more, discussing the blue glow that entered Akrenite, and he pulled down his shirt causing snow to flurry around the group, while Vimak and the priest of the raven queen talked of Mother.

After this Aldor went to talk to Me for the 97th time, stating “woe is me, I have given up my lifeth for thee to spend it with Vaulk, I perish for you sister”, pretty much a direct quote.  Aldor is the dying man who asked the favor of Knox the Priest.
