Mayor Creen seemed unable to stop the dwarves (and not particularly interested in doing so). The Homeland Guard was investigating lost portals in the area, so the party decided to prove itself as defenders of Wolfridge Crossing by going to help the dwarves close down an old portal that once belonged to a halfling cult called the Underfoot who once worshipped demons and the dark dragon goddess Tiamat in the area.
On their way to the location of the rumored portal stone, the group was accosted by a witch named Severell, an eladrin working for the fey mistress hunting Anvar. She, along with a group of phase spiders, wilden (tree creatures), and a dark archer trapped the party at a river crossing. The party defeated them and moved on to investigating the portal stone.
Finding the fallen tower in whose basement the stone once stood, the party descended into the basement. Anvar headed down the hall, but when a voice asked "Who goes there?" Idilai was unable to convince them that she was Anvar and that Anvar was Severell.
