Summary
The party comes to a town that has been attacked by ogres. Several of the town's young adults were carried off by the ogres and the party goes in search of them. The trail leads them to an abandoned citadel by a lake, Alar finds that the ogres joined a group of humans on horses and travelled together. The tracks lead to an old citadel on a hill by the lake. Tane uses his wand to cast Fly on the party and they approach the castle. In the tower are a group of humans, Lothar casts Holy Smite then they come in the window to finish them off. They go downstairs, then down into a cellar. In one room they find some of the missing townspeople, in another room, a vampire's coffin. Before they can go any further, some ogres attack. They Petrify one and kill another, then Tane uses Polymorph Self and goes outside pretending to be an ogre. They try to fight the ogres in the courtyard, but the vampire shows up and paralyzes Alar. Lothar and Tane fight the ogres and vampire, but are slowly losing. Alar shakes off the paralysis in time to kill the vampire with a volley of arrows. They loot the castle and find a treasure map and help the townspeople return home.
