⤛ The Einjar Excursion
A group of Knights of Krimnos, several mountain guides from Preciposte, and a group of volunteers journeyed through the dangerous Northern Mountains to Einjar following the start of the thaw in an attempt to discover why the dwarf city had gone silent in its communications with Preciposte and Krimnos.
Along the way they were rescued from animal attacks by a family of kobolds that said they were not from Einjar. Among the family was a towering individual named Monty who claimed he was also a kobold, though in appearance he resembled a dragonborn of another race, possibly elf or human.
The excursion team found its way into Einjar through the massive protective doors and found Einjar devoid of life, the furnaces cold and the mines and city abandoned seemingly mid-meal and workday. Within the mines they found a pool of dark liquid that caused a variety of violent and unexpected actions and reactions within the team and the kobold family. After experiencing heavy losses on the way to Einjar, especially of the dwarves in the party, and animosity between the knights and the kobolds they suspected of being involved, it was decided that the team should return to Krimnos before any more losses were incurred and report their findings.
The knights demanded Monty return to Krimnos with them for questioning on suspicion of involvement in the Einjar event as well as suspicion of being a dragonborn. The kobolds aggressively defended Monty from the knights' attempts to take him into custody and refused to allow him to leave.
Despite their actions during the Einjar excursion, the Knights of Krimnos bowed to the will of the majority when confronted with an overall dissent against their accusations and demands of the kobolds. While they were not pleased with the end result, the overall reaction of those supporting the kobolds appeared to be level-headed with a strong focus on communicating with and listening to both sides. The Knights were questioned on their demands while the kobolds were supported and defended by those who opposed the knights' actions and demands. With only one other non-knight member of the excursion team on their side to support them, they relented and allowed Monty to remain with his kobold family.
Those who remained neutral or defended the Knights were rewarded a little more lucratively at the end of the excursion, but all parties who went with the knights to Einjar were compensated for their efforts and the risks they took with a decent sum of gold, a couple pieces per day the excursion was gone and several more for handing over any information or artifacts they took from the empty city.
Upon the return to Preciposte and then Krimnos, the knights separated from the excursion team after requesting that they keep the circumstances and discoveries of the trip to themselves until more information could be gathered. This request is not enforced by enchantment or punishment, but the knights deny the involvement of any individual who makes 'wild and outlandish' claims of what occurred.
