• Party decided to go investigate Rogerson Dig
• Head to the Sandswept Library to see Selena Silvermoon and to get information about the digs.
• Parties learned about four dig sites:
• The Rogersons Dig, nestled in the desert sands of Liera, was once a bustling archeological site teeming with scholars and adventurers eager to uncover the secrets of the past. Believed to be the ruins of an ancient temple dedicated to the goddess of Liera, the site held great significance for historians and religious scholars alike. In ancient times, the temple was a revered place of worship, drawing pilgrims from far and wide to pay homage to the goddess and seek her blessings. However, as the centuries passed, the temple fell into ruin and was eventually abandoned, its once-grand structures swallowed by the shifting sands of the desert.
• The Sunken Spires of Azural - Deep beneath the dried lake, these ancient, submerged spires are believed to be remnants of a long-lost civilization that had mastered arcane energies beyond comprehension.
• The Ruins of Kharaz-Dûm - Nestled into the base of the mountains, these ruins are all that remain of a once-mighty dwarf kingdom. Known for its vast halls and deep mines, the site holds many secrets, including lost forges, legendary weapons, and ancient runes that tell of the kingdom’s rise and fall.
• The Crypts of Wraithwood - Located in a dense, haunted oasis where sunlight rarely touches the ground, these crypts are the final resting place of an ancient race of elf-like beings who were said to commune with the dead. The site contains elaborately carved sarcophagi, ghostly apparitions, and scrolls detailing necromantic rituals.
  

• The team decides Rogerson dig is the place for them. Selena advises them to seek blessings from the Temple of the Sun, which is dedicated to Liera, in town. 
• They visit the temple and make various offerings; some received better than others. 
• They meet High Priestess Cellie Dawnstar at the temple, who offers them advice and a few documents to help them lead them in the right direction.
