After the visit to the Rime Runners Guild, the Storm Peace Keepers gathered in their rooms at the Hunting Serpent Inn to discuss what to do next. With the information they had, they felt there was a strong connection with the missing sword and the missing guide but lacked proof. After some more discussion, Danicia and Sandru suggested an evening visit to the guild, after hours, in order to see what additional information they might find. It was agreed that the group would go over and sit in the tavern across the street while Danicia and Sandru would stroll around the neighborhood, just to see what visitors might be in the guild building.

That evening, the group wandered over to the area of the guild and split up. Danicia and Sandru wandered around, quipping at each other, while appearing to be lovers, looking for an out of the way place for the rendezvous. As they wandered about the building, they noticed that there appeared to be guards walking a patrol around the building. A light would shine out faintly through the cracks in the window shutters. After they observed the pattern, they tried the back door, then signaled for the rest of the group to join them. After everyone was hidden in the shadows, Dancia and Sandru opened up the back door and started searching the rooms. The group joined them, closing the door behind them. They then did a search of the rooms. They found Uksahkka, tied up in one of the rooms. They also found a hidden passage way to a room with a chest on the second floor. Danicia, Sandru and Sheliak did a check of this room and the locked chest. They found journals that appeared to have information that might help them.

When they had the journals, the group went back out, taking Uksahkka with them. They closed up the building in order to hide their visit and went back to their rooms at the inn. They then looked through the journals and found documentation of the hiring of the ship and group that had attacked them. They also found mention of Avsig being hired to colelct a valuable item, which they felt was the Suishen sword. In addition, they found mention of the purchase of Snorri's stronghold, RavensCraeg, and many papers of transactions for items for that stronghold. Based on this and other information, the group felt they would find answers at Ravenscraeg. They prepared and headed out the next morning to Ravenscraeg.

After a two day hike, they saw the stairs to Ravenscraeg in the distance. They moved to the forest on the side and discussed how to get more information before entering. It was decided that Sheliak would turn invisible and fly up the cliff to see what was there. He would be able to send messages back to Seoni and keep everyone informed. During his flyover, he saw the stairs and places for ambush, a tower with humanoids in it, with raven faces. There were also raven swarms flying about the towers. In back of the building, there was an open meadow, with seven sheep grazing. There was a door in the back, by a stream that ran into the building. Sheliak flew back and the group used the information for more discussion. Using Darsus' divine magic and Seoni's magic, they moved up to the top of the cliff and looked on how to get in. While looking this over, two humanoid appeared in the arrow slits and fired at them. A large creature flew up the stairs and also attacked. The group quickly killed the flying creature while the creatures inside continued to attack them. The group go the front door opened and went in to attack the creatures, who had disappeared.

As Cendrine moved in, two of the creatures appeared and attacked her. Another appeared and raven swarms flew in from the back of the hall. The group was attacked by the creatures and swarms but with magic and strong arms wielding the weapons, their attackers were quickly taken down. They found themselves in a large hall that opened up to the rest of the building. When the battle ended, the session ended there.
