Event Description

Two years ago many adventurers came to the city of Dahm to try and root out the Guild from a hidden fort they had under the city. The day you all arrived the city fell to an invasion from somewhere unknown from an enemy we did not know. At the end of the day the heroes of the Realms stood as victorious as we could have hoped and we thank you for that.
After the city was defended, Lako, Redd, and myself were able to construct a barrier over something within the mountain where we assume the invasion was coming from. That barrier has started to show weak spots and all our research into it has shown there is something much larger than we ever thought emanating from this source.
At this time, almost 2 years from the day we asked you into Gau Dring before, we ask you to return and venture forth into this cave system and investigate what is down there. We believe you should find the remnants of the Guilds hideout and much more. Please come prepared to do some spelunking, investigating and maybe exploring some old history of the lands.
In words from the Council,
Kyara Silver-Fang

(This will take you to the Dairy Bar, which is across the street from
the Arena)

Map on the UCONN map site: http://maps.uconn.edu/map/locations/143

From Central and Western MA and all Points North:
Find your best way to Rt: 84 in Connecticut.
Get off 84 at exit 68 (rt 195).
Turn left onto 195 South into Storrs.
195 takes you through the UCONN campus.

From Eastern MA and RI:
Find your best way to Rt: 395 in CT.
Get off 395 at exit 97 (rt 44).
Take 44 West to the intersection with 195 in Storrs.
Take a left onto 195 South.
195 takes you through the UCONN campus.

Once on 195 and you see you are approaching campus (you will note
the blue signs), look for Horsebarn Hill on the left. Do not turn
left here. Go past this road, and then past the next three entrances
on the left (all driveways).

When you see a small blue and white sign labeled "Dairy Bar
Entrance" take that left down the driveway. If you see North
Eagleville Rd on your right then you have gone too far.

Take your first right off of that driveway and you will be at the
lot for the arena. At the end of that next short driveway, taking a
right will bring you to the arena (and very limited parking), and
taking a left will bring you to overflow parking.

There is a map of these turns on campus at:
