Cragmaw Hideout

Cleared

A goblin cave off the road south, and the first place this party ever fought anything together.

What was there

• Klarg, bugbear chief
• Goblins unhappy enough with Klarg to sell him out
• Wolves, calmed with animal handling rather than fought
• Sildar Hallwinter, held prisoner
• Krunk, held captive, who joined the party on his release
• Crates marked property of Phandalin

What happened

The party found the ambush site on the road, followed the trail, and made a deal with the goblins: kill Klarg, get Sildar.

They did.

Worth remembering

The barbecue outside this cave produced several pounds of horse jerky, which went on to buy passage from the Nothic two arcs later.

One of the horses had been caught in a trap and perished. The party butchered it rather than waste it. It was a good call twice over.
