After the party braved through the Shrine of Valor, they received a message from their ally Vance inviting them to a gala ball in the Capital city of Dol Haran. Though confused at first, they were later informed by prince Nimueh Danah that they would be the guest of honor at this charity event. They decided to head to the capital and attend the event. Upon arriving at Dol Haran, everyone was soon whisked away to be fitted for formal outfits despite the ball being over a week away. While there, Vance informed them that the once illegal underground fighting arena had become sanctioned by the govenrment and now legally hosts several tournaments, including a monthly 8v8 event. Excited by the prospect, the group decided to enter in along with Vance as their 8th. After two grueling matches, the party emerged victorious, the energy of the fights spurring them on to finish their preparations for the upcoming charity ball.

The party traversed their way through the snowy trail from Sirith to the Flat Peaks, where they believe housed a Shrine of Virtue. Along the way, the team's resident dwarf Flank began seeing visions of Krahl Broadhill, the last Champion of Valor. Once the group reached the snow-covered Flat Peaks, they discovered that the Peaks were more than a simple mesa, and actually held the ruins of a village. After investigating the ruins, they group ended up falling through a series of sliding tubes, each ending in a separate rooms. With the party separated and isolated, they found themselves in pitched battles against their inner fears. They party succeed, reached the Shrine of Valor, and learned more about the previous champions. Flank himself received the maul of Krahl Broadhill himself. After being safely teleported back to the Flat Peaks themselves, the group now sets off to find the final Shrine of Virtue.

The party had a tenuous time as they passed through the city of Sirith, where most of the group first met. After a tense and awkward Helm's Day celebration, the group decided it was best to keep travelling onward through the rough snow towards the Flat Peaks, a tall mesa that may be the location of another Shrine of virtue.

The group continued their crawl through the Great Furnace to find a Shrine of virtue. After combatting a long-starved vampire, the party felt the mountain tremble and shake with the threat of a imminent eruption. They found themselves at a cliff overlooking a roiling pool of lava, that was set to burst forth out of the mountain. At the behest of her stone of virtue, Kallista decided to make the ultimate sacrifice and lep into the lava, with the rest of group falling in shortly after. This proved to be the solution, and the group survived the incident, finding the Shrine of Sacrifice within the core of the Great Furnace. Kallista's stone showed the party a glimpse of the previous Champions of Virtue through the perspective of a human rogue named Belaith Pelor. Upon being teleported out of the Great Furnace, Kallista found herself with a new dagger, presumably once belonging to Belaith himself. The group quickly made their way to another potential shrine out west at the Flat Peaks. As they set out of Padun, they realized their trip would have them pass through the town of Sirith, where most of the Champions had first met, and left the town in a less than reputable state.

The party had traversed up the Great Furnace and into a dark cave that descended downward until it revealed a room who's exit was guarded by an aged sphinx. After being unable to answer the sphinx's riddle, the party fought valiantly against it, and ultimately allowed it to die with honor. They then entered a room that split into 3 different hallways, but each was sealed by a stone door and was preceded by a strage stone chalice. Kallista, wearing their recently acquired stone of virtue, began hearing a strange voice compelling her to sacrifice her coin, her blood, and her own memories to open the three doors. Once done, the group went down one hallway together as a group to explore the dungeon. During their trek, the mountain shook and trembled, suggesting a possible eruption in the future. With one hallway searched, the group decided to rest before exploring the other two hallways and potentially, find another Shrine of Virtue

And of course, before we start, a quick refresher. The party set out through the Ravel Pass towards the Drawven village of Padun. On their way, the first encountered another dwarven village called Hargun. There, they learned more about the Great Furnace and the difficulty getting there. After stocking up on some supplies, the group set out again to Padun. They arrived at night, encountering Kilvar, one of the locals of Padun. After a tumultuous morning and being accidentally accosted by the Padun guard, led by Baral, who happened to be the contact the group was supposed to meet. They were led to the Padun court, headed by Baral's father, the Mayor Bael. After a lengthy discussion, the group decided to walk towards the Great Furnace, where they were buffeted by a powerful dust storm. With the aid of Jon's spells, the group made it through the storm and began their ascent up the mountain. Kindra sent her pseudodragon ZuZu up the mountain to scout ahead, finding a deep cave that seemed to house a Sphinx, waiting for the group's arrival.

The party began their sojourn to the Great Furnace, a large mountain that may possess a Shrine of Virtue. During their journey, they came across a gang of fairly incompetent thieves, and though they were able to solve the issue without bloodshed, the incident kept the group on their toes. The journey continued until they were ambushed yet again, not by thieves, but by strage dog-like creatures. After defeating most of the beasts, they spent the night tracking a surviving beast to a cave that was home to a coven of hags. The group's wisdom was put to the test, but they successfully defeated the coven and discovered that these hags had survived for a long, long time and hoarded several relics of a previous era, including a Stone of Virtue, bringing the groups Stone count to 5 out of 6. After a well deserved rest, the party set off back on the path to the Dwarven villaige of Padun, where a contact waits for them to aid the party's trip to the Great Furnace.

And of course, before we start, a quick refresher. The group met with Kellam Danah, second son of the Royal family to discuss the potential location of new Shrines of Virtue. While shopping for provisions around the capital city of Dol Haran, there was a sudden fissure eruption within the capital itself. The party fought valiantly along with Vance and his partner Luster against the enemy hordes that crawled out of the fissure. The city was not left unscathed however. During a meeting held by the Royal Family, the party learned of the harsh toll the fissure took on the city, including the death of several civilians and children. Concerned for future fissures, and hardened by tragedy, the group set out towards another potential Shrine up north, towards the mountain known as the Great Furnace.
