With the party assembled in the tree top village guard platform, the quest continues. Kurth is able to find, under debris, a large key composed of tarnished bronze. Over head of the party, the sounds of spiders scattering about can be heard. The wind whistles through the trees, causing bells to ring with a faint chime some distance away.

From one of the platforms up and to the south, insect combat can be heard as members of the Orange Eyed Spiders duke it out with Blue Blade Sword Spiders. From the looks of things, Orange greatly outnumbers Blue, and this is leading to Blue's demise.
