 The party retrace the steps of Dominic de Meliere, supposedly the last surviving child of Cecilia. Along the road to Estan, Lady Rosemile stop off at the shrines to each of the founders in order to attempt to get their attention and lift the curse on her hand. The party retrace the steps of Dominic de Meliere, supposedly the last surviving child of Cecilia. Along the road to Estan, Lady Rosemile stop off at the shrines to each of the founders in order to attempt to get their attention and lift the curse on her hand.

 +The first shrine they visit is the Leader'​s,​ which is currently occupied by Felix Cargan, a black sheep of the family, and his retinue. Geoffry prays at the shrine and blood from his sympathetic wound flows on the the shrine. Lady Rosemile talks with Felix, who is unsure about the path that his family is currently is taking. Eventually they agree to a pact that they will seek out the most suitable heir to the throne and help bring them to power without bloodshed, with Felix accepting Lady Rosemile as his leader for the time being. The feel the gaze of the Leader upon them as Geoffry'​s blood pools at the shrine and Lady Rosemile asks for help lifting her curse so that she might better serve the leader.
 +
 +Next they happen upon a group of people, the leader of which claims the name Green Thomas. Jon McWizard gives him some money to aid the poor and the rest of the party agree to give their aid to a a village that is under attack from giant spiders. After cleansing the spider nest the party head on to the Tender'​s shrine, which is occupied by a dishevelled looking band. They go off to hunt game to give as an offering and debate for some time if it is acceptable to bring back some of the deer near the shrine, as one of them appears to be holy. They eventually lead one of the non-holy deer to the shrine, which is killed and eaten by the squatters. However it appears to have been enough as they feel the Tender'​s approval wash over them.
 +
 +The next shrine is that of the Builder. A group of craftsman devotees are there making weapons. They ask for the party'​s help obtaining sacred wood from a specific tree in the forest. This is complicated by the fact the the forest is mostly flux now and has been overrun by flux cultists, who see the Builder as there antithesis. The party fend off the flux cultists as Lady Rosemile battles the spirit of the tree to prove she is worthy of its wood. Successful they return to the Builder devotees and earn the Builder'​s approval.
 +
 +The forth shrine is unmarked. The party find their minds assailed by a force that asks what their noblest goal is and what they make sacrifice to achieve it. All, except Lady Rosemile, are accepted the presence and feel it absorbed in to them. Lady Rosemile successfully fends off the mental assault.
 +
 +At the fifth shrine is an alcove with a mirror, from which emerge reflections of each party member. They all get the feeling that this is a holy duel and they must defeat their counterpart in single combat. All, save Gina, are successful and feel they have earned the general approval of the Warrior.
 +
 +The party finally arrive at Estan and ask around the market square if anyone knows of the man with mismatched eyes that might have come here fifty years ago.    ​
