The Lightbringers’ quest has many parts. This is one of them.

• Needed a route to get to the West, where he would go to the underworld
• Subdued a blue dragon, which took him to the ocean
• They were lost on the great water and were drawn towards the great maelstrom
• They found an island where they sheltered
• Orlanth confessed past transgressions to Ernalda, demonstrated his virtue, and pledged his love for all eternity
• The travellers went forward and risked death
• Luck and cleverness got them out of the maelstrom and heading west to the sunset
