Grand Duke Ravengard, Eyes Only

After marching west from Moonrise Towers, the Absolute's forces took Anga Vled and then split into two wings. One wing, consisting mainly of bugbears and human mercenaries and brigands, has remained north of the Chionthar and is travelling west on the Skuldask Road, threatening Tempus's Tears, which by the time you read this has probably already fallen.

The second wing, mostly goblins of the Seven Tribes bolstered by hobgoblins, crossed to the southern bank of the river and is marching west past Sunrise Spire, ultimately threatening Rivington and Wyrm's Crossing.

Both wings are commanded by cadres of renegade drow officers, easily identifiable during daylight hours by their broad-brimmed shade hats. There are notably fewer of these officers in the ramshackle southern wing, and I think the goblins would be vulnerable to ambush in the fields south of Rivington.

Notes

• When trying to access Wyrm's Crossing, having this item in one's inventory allows trying to convince the Flaming Fist guards that one has an urgent message for Ravengard. Using this option grants Inspiration to characters with the Noble background.
• A similar dialogue option is also granted when speaking to Elin about getting into Wyrm's Rock. This is one of several options for getting past this checkpoint that will grant Inspiration to characters with the Charlatan background.
