Magician would write two a pair letters, to families of the departed. There would be provided moderate, but heartfelt praise for bravery and integrity of fallen individuals, who had given their lives to protect wellbeing and future of Endir's Point. Thereafter, he would ask Jace to send both families compensations for (relatively heroic) demise on the line of duty.

If carts were still lingering at Endir's Point, they were offered passage to Bendir Dale by means of Teleportation Circle.

A letter is sent out to a few settlements:
The Dale, The Grove, The Shrine of Eilistraee, Obsidian Island, and Belenoth.
To the Brave Souls,

We wished to thank you all of you for your aid during this trying winter. To honor those that died in the Convoy that brought us the grain you all bravely delivered we wish to hold a feast in their name and yours. Please attend as it would be a great honor to us. We will have food, drink, sound and dance to celebrate. Please bring guests as well. The event will be held on (Sunday 20th of February at 5pm EST)

As scheduled Endir's Point did have a festival. There was much joy and celebration. Many merchants, citizens, travelers and adventures alike showed up to the city wide party. Dancing, cheering, snowball fights and building snowman could be seen, a joyous occasion rarely seen in such a bleak cold settlement. This took place for a few hours, as everything appeared almost perfect.

Things took a dramatic twist and turn though. Many people that consumed grain based foods began to complain of stomach pains. Those pains turned into reached vomiting and throwing up blood for some. For others in their bile was a odd variety of spiders. These spiders seemed to be in the hundreds as they made swarms or some split from the swarm growing larger and attacking any living creature in sight. All at once the entire town was in a panic. Citizens and adventures alike tried to defend themselves while being attacked by these spider creatures, people running inside and outside houses and businesses, some people escaping via windows.

After sometime thankfully the militia and the adventures were able to regain control subsiding the spiders that so abruptly appeared. Than the true chaos began...

Peoplw began to blame and turn on one another. Concerns of who was responsible and how...

"It was the mystrain priestess"
"Drow it had to be drow, they did this"
"The shadow dragon had to be involved!"
"It was the Dale, they poisoned us!"
"Ships from neverwinter was responaible"
"The chef had to of been involved and is a spy that poisoned us"
"The fury trio was at fault"
"Thra'lin is involved, it had to cautious.
"Had to of been a shadow mage"
"Sharrans were invovled"


Countless other statements flew by as people were attended to. Bodies found and laid out to be raised. The injuries to the living tended to by many people the townsfolk in utter shock of such disaster that just took place no one objected or stopped people while still on a panic. People searched for loved ones, friends and children. Time passes many people are raised, only a few were unable to return for one reason or another.

Than a investigation took place. The food was seized and purified. Much thanks to the chef and the village council showing the cooking area and grain silo it was all able to be purified and the poison removed. Talk of the poison being some kind of very hard to detect poison that consists of spider eggs that were combined with abolith slime somehow than added to the food.

For now things calmed down with much thankfulness. The citizens went about cleaning up the mess. Continue tending to the wounded and sick. Vowing a lesson to be learned in all this... cation to always be catious.
