Lannike, Greydog Ghost Woman
"Foul creatures like Danakos? Whatever drove him to kill the herders and me, dont use it to judge my tribe. Your herd seems now to be safely in your care and I can now take my rest."

The spirit of Lannike clutches her hands together, a sign of peace and vanishes in a cloud of mist. Gathering together the herd, you return home as heroes!
For restoring the cattle to the Colymar clan, you earn 4% reputation
In addition, you can keep any treasures you found in the ruins
Zahra, the Colymar clan chieftan's wife rewards you each with 200L as thanks.

You can also make improvement rolls to any skills you used successfully.

Maybe I misinterpreted...I thought she said there were several stone women inhabiting the badlands that posed a risk.

It was the old Shaman, Carthalo, that warned you of the Stone Woman. Lannike never lived long enough to encounter her, she was murdered before Danakos and the other Greydogs arrived at the broken tower. From what you can surmise, it was never their intention to go to the tower, but something influenced Danakos to go there and ultimately sacrificed his kinfolk and 5 of the cattle.

On speaking with elders of the village you learn of Idrima, the Stone Woman, one of the daughters of goddess Maran Gor the Earthshaker. You appeared to defeat a demi-god in combat, but suspect it is not the end of her.

Vasana is glad the spirit has departed, a relief upon the world.

Nathem silently nodded, dropping his gaze to rest on Rurik at his side. The man reached down to scruff the cat’s ear and it turned to look up at him with half closed eyes. She licked her lips and Nathem thought he saw peace in her blue eyes. Nathem sighed at that as he moved to set out back toward the village.

Thank you everyone for your time and effort. It went on a little longer than I expected, but I hope it gave you a feel for the Runequest world.

I personally love it and would love to run a campaign one day with original characters.

Thank you very much, KEG. This adventure definitely gave me as idea of the rich and unique setting of Glorantha, and the interesting game system too

Thanks for the brief taste, definitely a learning curve with this one.

Appreciate it, GM! Definitely took some getting used the the system, and, personally, I really struggled with playing a pacifist, but I'd be interested in trying another in the future!
