Investigate Venomfang's Alliance with Thurmin and Nundro
đ Quest Lead
Venomfang, the green dragon the party previously encountered at Thundertree, has secretly allied with Thurmin and Nundro Rockseeker to guard the Forge of Spells at Wave Echo Cave. This alliance is kept secret from Halia Thornton and potentially threatens her operationsâand raises questions about what else Venomfang might be planning.
Source: DM notes reveal this secret alliance. The party has encountered Venomfang multiple times, including at Wave Echo Cave where he seemed unexpectedly cooperative, and later near the Bright Forge where he was agitated by the Draakhorn.
