Session 1: Kythorn 11–20. Princess Alusair and her companions flee Suzail, riding through the King's Forest into Eveningstar, and continuing on past Arabel and Castle Crag, through Gnoll Pass. On the Moonsea Ride through the Stonelands, they encounter the remains of a destroyed caravan. The party track the raiders through the Stonelands to their hideout caves: in a daring raid, they quickly overcome the guards and rescue their prisoners.

They continue on through the Arkhen Vale, slaying man-eating ogres and stone giants demanding a toll. On the edge of the mountains, they discover a glade containing a hollow stone dome and a grave with a treasure. As they ponder what to do next, they see and hear a tremendous explosion in the northwest, in the direction of Sessrendale.
