Order of the Golden Stag

[saintseer]

A few days ago, a hin was brought into Greatgaunt with a helmet on his head that could not be removed. When the hin died, the helmet turned into rust and crumbled. Mariss, the druid of Silvanus mentioned this to Suorin Corm, Priestess of Lurue, and asked her to check on the Shrine in the Bramble Forest. After gathering a small party of adventurers, She set out to the shrine. Once there, the group was met by a pixie. The pixie questioned the group and after some general conversation, she asked about the old man who had been going there. The group searched for the old man who had not visited lately and found him at a camp he had made in the forest. After some conversation, the old man told the story of how he was the last surviving guardian of the Order of the Golden Stag. As he drew his last breathes, he commissioned the group to find and restore the Shrine and to find a new Guardian to tend it; leaving the ceremonial helmet to their care.

Suorin spends the next few days asking around Greatgaunt if anyone has ever heard of this order. She was given a few suggestions and ideas, but has yet to discover much about the order. She returns to Mariss occasionally to see if he has heard anything from his fellow druids.

Talking with Merriss, Suorin learns that there is a library at the Temple of Oghma in Arabel. She boards the caravan at first light and heads to Arabel. Once there she has meaningful conversation with Sage Notten.
She searches the books in the library looking for any infofrmation on the Order of the Golden Stag.

Her time at the Temple in Arabel reveals little. She decides to head back to Greatgaunt. After saying her good-byes to Sage, she makes her way across town to the caravan and buys her passage back. Once there she returns to speak with Meriss about her findings. After that she meets with her friend Bellus who has accompanied her from the start of this. Still unsure what direction to follow, if any, Suorin prays about it, as she has done everynight when she makes her devotional to Lurue.

A lead comes to Suorin through a fellow named Adon Ket. He has found what appears to be a shrine, surrounded by goblins and near what used to apparently be a temple, in the mistwood forest. The two travel to the forest and after taking care of the goblin camp, a shrine is located. It is uncertain as to what the shrine is to as it has been defiled and the rune markings covered by scribble with the words "I was here" covering some of the markings. She attempts ro read what she can of the runes and then tries using the helmet to see what reaction it gets if any.
