Adventurers DESPARATELY needed to retrieve an artifact for the ceremony.

The party was sent to investigate the theft of the Aquamariner, the artifact at the center of the annual ritual. They followed a trail to Northface, where they found that is was being stored in a cave just outside of Firehammer Hold. After fighting past bandits and odd puzzle doors, they found the fountain stored deep underground, which the brought back to the King.
