And really, this is how it started.
The party spent the day in Hackleton, foraging for any surviving provisions, researching, identifying, and making ready for a journey in search of the one named Belak the Outcast. The walkers wandered aimlessly around the village, no real threat to those who are quiet, careful, and protected by the power of Chauntea - so a foraging party was formed.

70. The light of Steel
The secret door at the back of the hidden room grated open. The party could detect the writhing, spindly legs of many spider like creatures around the trapped chest. Everyone turned to the fireplace, and Jacob positioned himself directly between it and Pafflouous, who still stood in the thaumatic triangle, desperately trying to recover his concentration to complete the ritual of steel.

69. Gas Man!
The party correctly assumed that the chest was trapped. Hugh
reached out with his mind and lifted the corpse off the chest (noting that it
was dry, maybe drained of blood). Once clear, Garret used a cantrip to flip
open the lid. It came as no surprise that a trap was activated.

68. He who pays the piper.
The party decided to rest here in the private dining room rather than risk further exploration in their weakened condition. Bovrain and Isaiah agreed to watch, whilst the others made themselves as comfortable as they could, and quickly dropped into restless, exhausted sleep.

67. Brief Encounter
Cweno and Bovrain decided that would follow the insectoid creature after all, and started out down the earthen tunnel. But the passage began to slope, and after about 30 feet it turned into a vertical pipe about five feet in diameter, that fell away into the rocky blackness of the pillarstone of Ravenloft itself, further than they could see. Bovrain thought that it could be climbed, but on balance, they decided not to proceed.

66. Confusion, rains.
Cweno opened the door, and almost immediately the party discovered the source of the blood in the crystal goblets. They had emerged into an outer corridor and guard post, with arrow slits looking out into the castle courtyard, where the rain fell like a solid silver curtain in the dark.
