"Aye," Alexia says, assisting in tying the prisoners. "I suppose they must stand trial for their crimes. Were it my decision, I would end their miserable existence now."

"I think they will be harshly treated by their kin-folk as it stands. Now lets get that lorestone out of here and back to safety!"

Targost will also quickly search the bodies of Cyflymber and the dark gnomes.
Perception: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (20) + 7 = 27

Targost searches the body of Cyflymber and finds the lorestone and is able to get it out of the circle before the rays of the sun hit about half a minute later.

The party travels back to Absalom’s Grand Lodge where the lorestone is added to the collection—although unlocking its mysteries will consume many years (at best).

Defeating Cyflymder’s gang removes a minor menace from the Verduran Forest, allowing local, peaceful druidic activity to resume. But, as explorers push ever deeper into the dark groves, friction is bound to flare up again.

Congratulations! You successfully completed the adventure!

Yay!!
