Come the morning, there is little evidence of the offering, and so, after discovering what appear to be four barrels filled with valuable vintages of wine decide to return to Fort Eskarya, in hope of obtaining a cart to aid in their pillaging. At night, Jamaal observes robbed figures taking the bodies of the fallen goblins and offering them to a large solitary tree in a courtyard within the chapel grounds, prompting floral growth from the soil where the bodies were laid. With the sun setting, the party fortifies within the larder, and takes watches. The ruins are filled with tracks of wolves and goblins, as well as an old trail of a strange blood-like substance. Through his investigations, Vyodros surmises that the place of worship is dedicated to a nature deity called Kaarin, although much time has passed since the chapel was seemingly in use. While successful in dispatching the goblins, the party disturbs a spectre lingering within the skeleton of a long-dead soul, and learns that the crypts beneath the chapel are filled with undead - seemingly commanded by a sentient being. Vyodros' brashness serves to punish him when he triggers a crossbow trap upon their arrival to the church, which they find to be inhabited by goblins under the leadership of Boss Slug, a goblin clad in chainmail. While Jamaal proves more hesitant following the encounter, Vyodros is only emboldened by the experience, and once more the party sets off north to the chapel, this time through the grasslands as to give the forest a wide berth. Vyodros and Jamaal are slain, but through the efforts of the rest of the party, they are returned to Fort Eskarya and revived.

At Vyodros' suggestion, the party set out north to the chapel, but upon entering the forests to the north of the fort are quickly set upon by a pack of wolves. They are tasked with exploring the lands beyond and are informed that so far scouts have located a chapel to the north, a ruined fort to the east and an unknown threat to the north-east from which the scouting party has not returned.

Upon arriving at the improvised stronghold of Fort Eskarya, a previously abandoned holdfast now occupied by the Lord's Alliance, the adventurers are introduced to Lord Aldwin Thorne, his trusty hound Eskarya and his assistant Bravenheim. If Possessed Ones spawn, players will need to dodge their spirit blasts and if warbeasts spawn, players will need to avoid being overwhelmed by these quick melee creatures.

Periodically, multiple Sturmbeorns or warbeasts will spawn to overwhelm the player. More troublesome than Grell himself are the enemies that spawn along the sides of the arena. If Grell points his cannon at the ceiling, rocks will fall from the ceiling surrounding Grell - players have about a second to exit this radius. If Grell points his cannon arm towards the player, he is about to fire a cannonball - players have about a half-second to sidestep this attack. Luckily for the player, his attacks are telegraphed slowly, which will give them plenty of time to react accordingly. Grell is a slow boss that lumbers towards the player to use high damage attacks.
