With the seductive vampires from Reis on their tail, the party headed south for Holmgard. As the sun rose, they -should- have been safe, but that was when things got really bad. Four knights from General Wernov's army tracked them down, and clearly affected by powerful enchantments, attacked the party without provocation.
The knights were eventually felled, but not before Quinn was downed with a single fierce blow from a charging lance. When later interogating one of the knights, they discovered the warrior knew nothing of his assault. Having been convinced by Ralt of the truth of what had happened, he set off for Reis to inform General Wernov of the situation.
Back in Holmgard, and the party ran into one Milton Featherweight, Geoffrey's cousin from the Shadowlands. He came with grave news: The Scorpion Clan nest had been overrun by Oni, who were quickly advancing deeper into Tengu land.
But Milton had a plan. Having achieved step one: finding Geoffrey, he urged the party to accompany him back to Nest One, where they might reach the belltower to sound the alarm and organize some sort of defense with the remaining Tengu warriors.
