Our tale begins here, in the quiet fishing village of Easthaven.
One of the so-called Ten Towns of Icewind Dale, the tiny community is hardly a town but rather a collection of ramshackle huts crowded together upon the icy shores of Lac Dinneshere. Here, within a dimly lit tavern, a group of travelers sit huddles around a table, swapping tales and making grand plans for the future, completely unaware of the part they are to play in the events that are about to unfold.
