 Late on the day before this mission started, the first reports started trickling in of an orcish incursion into the north of the River Kingdoms. Occasional skirmishes are not unheard of in history, but the orc tribes have been preoccupied with the Horselords for many moons, and this attack was unexpected. During the course of the night, it became apparent that the River Kingdoms were under serious attack, and plans drawn up under the Calderway Treaty were enacted. Lockenport and the towns of the mainland were mobilised to provide support to the River Kingdoms. Irregulars were woken by alarm bells, and rapidly assigned to a number of missions to the mainland. Late on the day before this mission started, the first reports started trickling in of an orcish incursion into the north of the River Kingdoms.

 The group lead by Zarra was assigned to the village of Loont. Tavius explained that this tiny village was notable for three reasons. First, it is the western-most settlement in the River Kingdoms, and closest to the lands where Vedroth'​s Citadel of the Dead lies. Second, Loont exists only to support the Eye of Ioun, constructed nearby. The Eye is an observatory and library, access to which is prized by academics and magical researchers alike. Third, a group of Irregulars went to Loont five days ago on an escort mission, and have not yet returned. It was an open mission without a specific return date, so there is no specific reason to worry yet, they may simply still be in Loont. The group lead by Zarra was assigned to the village of Loont.
