The Heroes made their way out of the mountains but found themselves chased by shadow riders. They eventually found a cave to hide in and discovered an entrance to an ancient dwarven city. Still chased by their pursuers they entered the city until they reached the Old Forge and decided to escape through the exhaust.
Confused by Federika's reaction the Heroes explained what happened. They put their heads together to figure out the best way to handle this situation. Through Seraina's child Morlorrim would be able to assert his influence directly over the world. They hoped that keeping the child away form Morlorrim's influence would put to stop to the God's plans. Eventually they decided to take Seraina to the Temple of Annaaru in Thring, the very place where their adventure started. When they made their way out of the mountain dark clouds rolled in from the west, and among the clouds were numerous large winged creatures with shadowy riders. It quickly these creatures were looking for them and most likely Seraina. Slowly they managed to make their way out of the mountains and into the Gynard Canyon, but they couldn't shake off the creatures. It became clear that they wouldn't get far this way. Looking for a place to take shelter, Anlen spotted an old, half-collapsed mine entrance. The group went in, but not without alerting the Shadow Riders. As they entered the mine they heard they pursuers screeches as they followed them. With great haste they explored the mine, looking for a way out. Henk and Anlen stumbled upon what looked like an entrance to an ancient Dwarven city. Inside the dwarven city they found a maze of tunnels and halls which they traversed until they were completely lost. Still chased by their pursuers they made started looking for a way out. In the Old Forge, still fueled by rivers of lava, they found a possible way out, but it was a steep climb and their pursuers were getting closer.
