1492 DR 22 Nightal (The Drawing Down)

The people of Briar Glen are self-destructing, due to the manipulations of the hag coven that haunted their community for months. Now the coven is gone, at the cost of one of our friends. But what was the point of it all? So many things make no sense. We know hags love suffering, but was that all there was to their actions in Briar Glen? After all the time they spent, to risk it all in one fight... if hags are so clever, was that really what happened? Convenient that it occurred so close to Everlund. Convenient also that Granny Annie Cruelty was part of the coven, possibly even its leader.

We need to save Briar Glen. Where do we go from here?
