Building to Greater Heights

Construction beginning/end

Myska's Menagerie savor their victory, return to their foundation in the Ulgoine Valley to rebuild in the aftermath, and seek out answers from an old people.

The morning after the assault on Jibrom's lair, Myska's Menagerie reconvened. The loot pile was gone through and items divided based on who would have best use for them. The extras where gathered into magical bags for storage. For the moment, no one would touch the Temperance Shards nor destroy the crystal artifacts as they mulled over the possibilities of making their own artifacts from the shards.   The party spent the first day flying back to the center of the valley where they returned to the goblin village DragonKiller Sitting. In the last few days, the goblins had cleaned the wreckage and buried the dead but had not begun rebuilding their home. Myska's Menagerie took it upon themselves to spend the next five days aiding the goblins of DragonKiller Sitting. Fozz tapped into his ancestral legacy to attune himself with art of carpentry as Crush took to the fields to bless their growth for the next year. Astrid aided in the building while Chupta prepared practices and trials for himself and his companions in the down time. In the end, the goblin village was not only rebuilt but improved. In the center of the village, a small, basic obelisk-shaped monument was created under a roof in honor to the “Angels Who Fall From the Sky: Heroes and servants of DragonKiller Sitting”.   After this time lending aid to the village, the party determined to combine the singular and splintered Temperance Shards with the Shade Crystal. In doing so, Myska once again grew in strength, momentarily freely speaking with the party. She spoke of Shards of the Valley and why she had given them. Myska knew that she now had returned to her the majority of those of Tersule and the Lothin Diarchy, though some were still scattered. She had not yet regained those given to the ancient dwarven nation of Kag Bhurim to promote progress and prevent living in the past for the stubborn and old dwarves. She also spoke of many other shards still serving their purposes across the lands. While retaking the pillaged and misused ones was morally easy, it would be more difficult to take those that still served their purposes, those given to calm the destructive wilds to allow life to be maintained; vitalize the wilds to prevent them from being overtake be fervent growth; to bring light and warm to the wanting; to bring calm and dark to give solace and reprieve to the outcast.   Taking this knowledge onward, the Menagerie flew on toward the Immreth mountains to locate Dul Kag, the capitol and last remaining vestige of Kag Bhurim. It took them two days of aimless, scanning flight but they found the trail dotting the side of what would be Thjoldmondr. The airship followed it upward to Dul Kag's singular entrance of Skygate. Puncturing the top of the mountain, the huge doors guarded the stairs descending within.
