The party headed to First Fires and into Ducal Palace to talk to Chancellor Warrin, in regards to the contesting of TheGoliath's claim to Caed Nua, by Lord Gathbin.

Lord Gathbin arrived and was not happy or being reasonable. He did not expect who was really the one whom claimed Caed Nua, so TheGoliath provoked him by mentioned about who owns their own keep to raise their hand. This was followed by the decree as the ruling for the Caed Nua keep, with it being acknowledge that TheGoliath reclaimed it due to it being abandoned and cursed for over a century and Lord Gathbin would have to compensate him... He did not like that one bit.

"I'll not pay this miscreant a single copper for MY ancestral land! You wait TheGoliath, as I will be back for my land."

With that, Chancellor Warrin announced Caed Nua officially belonged to TheGoliath who asked to extend an invitation to Lord Gathbin to feast in Caed Nua's halls and to not be enemies.

"This place has a strange feeling about it and I can see why they lost many people here, without any clue how" announced Eder as they got inside Heritage Hill.

First enemies to be faced were grouped into multiple of them but were quick to defeat, at least for these first fights. Revenants, Guls and other undead. It was no doubt easy bits of experience and the party knew it was going to get harder... but they were finally starting to level up again with the first being TheGoliath.

Extra lore was required because using those scrolls and being a Wizard means it is a useful skill to get higher, as for the new spell, Kalakoth's Minor Blights was going to be epic to use. Area of effect and causes Burn, Freeze, Corrode, or Shock damage to anyone in the area of effect so the big mobs of enemies were going to be caused some pain! Finally the talent chosen was Arcane Veil which gives a protective shield and boosting deflection.

Next up to level up coming after another fight involving more Revenants and Guls, once the blood and bits settled it was Pallegina hitting level 6 and getting some extra Lore and Survival points and a nice new talent to use which is Greater Lay on Hands and is a more powerful healing spell to the one she already has.

"Finally I can help the party further with keeping them alive with healing, I feel the power growing inside of me."

Before heading into the tower there was one tough fight to be won first. This one had a Skeletal Wizard with the Guls and what a fight it was about to be!

TheGoliath's fireball was effective for damage and was burning for some extra damage. The Thunder Rolled Like Waves on Black Seas from Kana was needed as TheGoliath got knocked out and the enemies were still clumped up, pushing them back while doing damage before the party killed all buy one Dargul which managed to get Hiravias knocked out before they killed it off.

"Ah a new Invocation to go with this level of power increase" said Kana as he unlocked the Gernisc Slew the Beast, but Soon Faced Its Kin Invocation which allows conjuring three wurms to fight for the party, along with the talent Acolyte's Radiance which is a radiance heal to help the party.

"We should camp here and rest for a while now it is safe and we could all do with the recovery before entering the tower tomorrow" Pallegina announced before they all had a nice time resting by the campfire and working out tactics to use the time wisely, until they finally decide to go inside next time.
