Luna Dream Mageworks are the ones working on the experimental airship that brought us back to Battlement from Fyrrneth. They're a private group trying to combine old world (golden age) tech into modern systems.
Thaminrin is from Crystal Wick (Also known as glowstone by the locals.)
A Cold Box is a magical item that traps someones soul after they die, letting them be ressurected for longer after death than normal. They're rare, and expensive. Mostly built in Caerwy.
A cursed cold box was used to kill a noble in the gnomeish lands between Battlement, and Fyrrneth. It killed them, and dispersed their soul.
Caerwy is a progressive land founded by necromancers, that wanted to use necromancy to better society.
Thaminrin is slowly turning to stone after their deadly encounter under the elven church in the events of Trouble in Elftown. They spoke to the being giving them their powers, but the powers are uncontrolled, and slowly turning Thaminrin to stone. He must venture back and find the being that gave him power to try to resolve this. Sal's new "God touched" ability he got after dying in the same incedent allows him to break curses, and is slowing the progression of the stone disease.
Profesor Aldric Laka was the name given to Thaminrin by Devin, one of the God Touched, as someone who could help. Asking around he's a powerful Divine magic expert, one of the smartest people in Battlement according to the head of the guard.
We've partially returned to Battlement to help solve the case of the Reliquarty Wardens vault being robbed. They were in possesion of a Dream Key. While they're secretive about what was stolen they believe it was an inside job. Previous contact of the Wild Cards Eve Bowland's rooms where wrecked, and there's no sign of them. This is the only thing we have to go on. Serveral other teams have been given this mission, but nobody has returned yet. Our new Reliquary Warden's local contant/head of the local operations is Sable Cren. 
We discovered talking to the head of the guard of Battlemnt, also a God Touched, that Sal's new power, "Curse Breaker", may grow more powerful with use. Either getting more uses, or new effects. Seems the God Touched abilites grow with thier users.
In the old ruins under the church/holy site in the Elven capital we fought a large crab monster, it was mechanical/magical. Thaminrin's true sight discerned the wrighting on it. it said "United World Government Rescue/Recon 002 Drill Automation buil by Lionel" Further marking indicate it was built in 4727, assuming on the old calendar.
The current year by the new post Calamity calandar is 1105 (years since the calamaity)
Pre-Calamity scientists captured the gods to power machinations of theirs during the golden age. Several gods where used up by these machines, and are now more. The "God Touched" where a group of adventurers sent to find the source of a plague that was plaging the land. Turns out is was a dead god slowly rotting. Using some undisclosed method they eliminated the rotting god corpse that was blowing down into the valley, and making people sick. They also found and released many of the trapped gods who had been there since the Calamity. For their efforts before the gods left they gifted them abilites. Some people are still given these abilites, although rarely, since the gods do not set foot on the world anymore. These abilites are why the group became known as the "God Touched". The town this was in is on the same continent as Battlement. It seems untouched by the Calamity, and was falling apart from simple age, and disuse.
Zalzor after briefly being imprisoned, and brought back to Battlement has take up arms against the Half Moon Tribe now rules by his brother. The Half Moon Tribe has begun attacking Battlement, and managed to press right up against the walls in some attacks. 
After some discussion among members of the group it was realized that the silver found in the "upside down pyramid" under the alter was melted down by Zalzor when he was still in the group, and left in his bag of holding. The one we got off him when he was arrested, and have been carrying around all this time...
We were accausted by sky bandits while crossing from Fyrneeth to Battlemnt on a charted ship built much differently than most airships we've been on. It seemed much faster, and used float crystals in odd ways. It was damaged in the attack, and had to be repaired in the gnomish city along the way.
