After a tenday of walking and fighting, the group arrives in the village of Kulta. There they meet Godfrey, a local magistrate. From Godfrey, they learn about how the marketplace in Kulta lies on what is referred to as “The Crossroads,” and why there are so many yaks in Kulta (and that they are owned by the Hokkera family). Godfrey directs them to Galiena Riyoma, the Harper contact, who is out on her morning walk. With Galiena’s help, they begin to analyze the Battlerise orb/beacon.
