Chapter 4 - Cragmaw Castle

Having decided to keep up the march after the encounter with the Hobgoblins you continue onwards towards the castle. The rest of the afternoon and early evening pass without incident. About and hour after sunset, with the bright moon overhead, you reach the clearing that Reidoth had mentioned. In front of you stands the old castle.

The castle consists of seven crumbling towers of different sizes and heights, but the upper stories are all in varying states of collapse. A short flight of steps leads up to a terrace in front of the main entryway. Past the wreckage of a pair of sundered doors lies a shadowed hall. Round towers loom over the entranceway, with dark arrow slits looking down on the terrace.

There is another path which runs along the southern face of the building where a set of stairs leads to a large iron door.

Gerbo and Karma's trip around the castle provides little information that wasn't already apparent. The castle is in a state of disrepair, with sections of the outside wall having been hastily covered up with rough timber. To the north is a heavily used footpath which looks to run towards the building.

Overnight on several occasions distant foot steps can be heard moving about the woods. From the sounds it's easy to tell that each time it's a small group of individuals.

I think we could find a weak spot and either we sneak in somehow or Kerisha breaks a hole in the wall.
