The party spent most of their days asking questions. The Queen and her Archivist divulged some information about the Storm Giants as well as some of the historical dragons of the region. The party also spoke with Griffith, an old sailor, known for him and his Ship the Black Dog meeting with the Queen of the Storm Giants, Queen Neri years back during a chance meeting. They exchanged pleasantries and she gave all of the sailors beautiful shell necklaces. All sailor have heard legends of the Queen of the Depths, and meeting her is seen as a sign of good luck.

The party also spent some time in the Inn, talking to some brave Order of the Gauntlet folk, fighting up north east against frost giants. Members of the Emerald Enclave were being sent out west to deal with rampaging stone giants, and members of the Zhentarim were unhappy with the exchange between Durango Daniel and their group.

Climbing to the top of the castle tower with some signal flags, the party met with the Cloud Giants Kiflith and Ardius Higsag the next morning outside the city in an abandoned farmstead. The Cloud giants wore dramatic smiling masks and spoke common, discussing how the small folk would be able to at least breath down in Maelstrom, as the other lesser giants could too. They too had heard of Hekaton going missing, and how his youngest daughter Serissa held the throne.

The clan of Higsag worried little about "Duke" Zalto, as they saw him as little threat, especially considering they were not taking part in the Civil War. Though the richest Cloud Giant family in the region, Countess Sansuri could not be the same. She had recently captured a dragon of unknown type and planned to hold a celebration of his new seizing of power.

Having spent a long time asking questions, the party decided they were nearly ready to head to Maelstrom and get to the bottom of the situation.
