Publisher's blurb: The players have survived being hunted by icebreaker whales and navigating the cog Octavius to shore saved the trading camp of Abhorn West from certain doom. Now they depart Winterkeep heading south on the Salt Road, skirting the Narfell Plain and Sunrise Mountains, to the aptly named Bone Gate at the steps of the Thay Plateau. Trouble and political intrigue build at each turn.
