The "Temple" of Lathander

Located in the southeast corner of the Northern Reaching Woods, this "temple" to Lathander was overgrown and in disrepair after being abandoned centuries ago by the followers of Lathander who had taken care of the location.

A new group had been in the process of moving in to the Temple, a coalition of drow, dwarves, orcs and others who had been taking captives here from around the area, for some potentially nefarious reason. It was a hub for this, as well as a group of chitine who were spreading across the northern reaching woods with their giant spider flock, the group having encountered a small party of them on their way to the temple that they subsequently defeated.

The Group infiltrated this temple trying to find out what had been going on, following a lead they got from Meliai. Inside, they defeated a few guards and a female drow priestess who had been doing something to a corpse entombed in a gold trimmed, glass casket at the core of the compound, leading the party to think this was more of a tomb for this person and not just a simple temple.

The Group found several prisoners locked up in a side room of the temple compound, including Aroros' lost princess Ilaura Carric and Gregor, the paladin of Lathander they had met previously who had been traveling with Nudalgo, the "priest" of Lathander who Gregor explained was a drow spy in disguise.
