We take the prisoners we rescued from the Temple and head back to Westbridge. On the way we encounter 3 former water cultists under attack from hell hounds and a fire cult summoner. We take out the fire cult enemies, and obtain information from the water cultists, Brock, Galvern and Tenat.
- Shatterkeel is the leader of the Water Cult. Located under Feather Gail Spire, under Riverguard Keep.
- The leader of Riverguard Keep is Oliver Grimjaw. Keep is heavily defended, but we may be able to get in through the river. There is a gate there.
- The cults are working together to some degree to ensure the destruction of the valley.
- They have no connection to the orcs.
- We learn the water cult hand symbols. Upside-down means something is wrong. Sayings: "What is our purpose? To wash away the impure, unclean, and unworthy." A phrase that activates magical shrine to ohydra.
We also trade with Umi.
- Umi was looking for a lich, but it turns out it is not Reniwick. Umi's lich has purple eyes, carries a cursed staff that turns people undead, and sacrifices a lot of animals for blood magic.
- There is a powerful glaive located in a tomb in the hills of Hunter's Axe. A gateway between underground and surface worlds. We mark the area on our map. It has the worst traps created by Parvax, a master trap maker. Also houses the magical Axe Orcsplitter and other artifacts.
