After some discussion on the direction of the campaign, Gemwin leads Grom, Vindalf, Jendri, Hokan, and the freed duergar Veyra back down into the Glitterhame area, where Gemwin solo-fights two gricks, and then the party is attacked by carrion crawlers. Hokan fails to pick the Iron Door's lock, but luckily a duergar party emerges and the party negotiates up the duergar bureaucracy chain to Morga Ironvein, second-in-command of the gray dwarves. Morga agrees to let them explore parts of the halls the duergar aren't using, but forbids them access to the smithing areas. The party starts with a dwarven shrine where they battle an orc wight and two ogre skeletons, and discover the remains of the great smith Durgeddin.
