The Cult of the Dragon leads the charge in an unholy crusade to bring Tiamat back to the Realms, and the situation grows more perilous for good people with each passing moment. The battle becomes increasingly political as opportunities to gather allies and gain advantage present themselves. From Waterdeep to the Sea of Moving Ice to Thay, it is a race against Evil. Succeed or succumb to the oppression of draconic tyranny. Win or lose, things will never be the same again.

In Icewind Dale, adventure is a dish best served cold. Beneath the unyielding night sky, you stand before a towering glacier and recite an ancient rhyme, causing a crack to form in the great wall of ice. Beyond this yawning fissure, the Caves of Hunger await. And past this icy dungeon is a secret so old and terrifying that few dare speak of it. The mad wizards of the Arcane Brotherhood long to possess that which the god of winter’s wrath has so coldly preserved—as do you! What fantastic secrets and treasures are entombed in the sunless heart of the glacier, and what will their discovery mean for the denizens of Icewind Dale? Can you save Ten-Towns from the Frostmaiden’s everlasting night?

When we last left our heroes, they were all in the King's Court. They had just delivered Deathbiter to King Valermo when his children burst in and accused the King of being an imposter. Suddenly 2 boys come running into the court, being chased by their governess. "I apologize My Lord, but the boys escaped me." Rudor demands of them, "Prince Garth, Prince Valair, what are you doing out of your chambers? Go back at once!" Prince Valair points at the King and screams, "That is NOT my father!" Prince Garth screams, "He's an Imposter!" King Valermo stands up. His blue eyes immediately turn completely black. "As they say, I guess the jig is up! I would've gotten away with it if it hadn't been for those meddling kids!" As the townspeople and servants begin to flee the castle, King Valermo begins to change. His features quickly meld into a red fiendish looking character with large leathery wings. "BOW DOWN TO JEZGOL AND I MAY ALLOW YOU TO LIVE TO SERVE ME!" What of His Majesty, King Valermo?!? Will Deathbiter be used to turn the entire kingdom into zombies?!? Will our heroes prevail and save the Kingdom from Evil?!? These questions (and more) will be answered during: Valermo's Quest (Part 2): Seige of the King!
