Rams make it back to Oberstdorf in time to begin Solstice 
celebrations at the Tiefenbach Spa.  Geoph enjoys Solstice 
ciders, Yuri marvels at the moon in the winter sky, and Fecus 
is warmed by the holiday festivities.
The festivities are brought to a halt as a friend of Baldwin’s 
family bursts into the crowd, child in her arms, screaming for 
help as a short, blue gnome-like creature chases her while 
wielding a knife.  Chaos erupts as more of the creatures 
appear throughout the crowd.
Rams kill 5 of the 12 Tontuu, the other 7 escape.
The woman who was fleeing the Tontuu with her child in arms 
claims the creature made her child ill.
A priest of the Sovereign’’s local fire faction approaches Rams 
and informs the brave souls that other children to the north 
have been reported as falling to the same illness and a 
floating glacier/ziggurat in the sky has been sighted in the 
region possibly having a link to the illness.
The priest blesses Rams with the Sovereign Fire abilities to 
assist them in their investigation of the glacier/ziggurat that 
the Tontuu appear to have fled to after wreaking havoc on 
the celebrations.
Rams arrive at the floating glacier and are able to climb a rope 
that is anchored to a stairway that is built up the side of the 
glacier, killing the lone Tontuu guarding the bottom of the stairs.
Rams climb the stairs to discover the top layer of the ziggurat, 
guarded by 3 Tontuu.  Rams fight and kill those Tontuu and 
enter the ziggurat.
The first room of the ziggurat is filled with saplings of 
evergreen trees.
Down to the next level contains larger evergreen trees and 
Rams hear strange childlike voices whispering.
In the 2nd level 2nd room, Rams are attacked by a goat-headed 
monster and 5 Tontuu.  Rams kill the Joulbok and 5 Tontuu, 
but at the cost of breaking 2 Spider Blades.
Down into the 3rd level 1st room, Rams bust down an ice wall 
to gain access to an amulet and are attacked by a 
Demonic Ice Guardian that they kill.
Rams quickly explore the 2nd and 3rd rooms of this level, 
finding nothing of interest.
In room 4, Rams encounter 1 Tontuu, 1 Joulbok, and the 
Old God himself Tjaptar.
Killing Tjaptar triggers the self-destruction of the glacier/ziggurat.
Rams escape the disintegrating structure without injury and 
make it back to the Tiefenbach Spa to learn that the sick children 
have spontaneously recovered when Rams killed Tjaptar.
Rams are feted as heroes.
Fecus, Shelby, and Gugula go forward with some
