The Companions learn more about the strange party of black robed 'clerics' they encountered. Goldmoon tries to gain new information about the blue crystal staff. A new race is introduced to Krynn, creating problems for the Companions. The party flees, again. 

Sturm remembers and maybe goes a little crazy. The Companions benefit (?) from his mental turmoil. They follow his madness (?) into Darken Woods.
