While staying in Moltoruun, the party were admonished for being slow to assist Commander Vordokov regarding past contracts. The Icefangs of Frostveil, led by Kullak, were present in court to assist in dealing with some local threats... which led to some tension between both groups. In response, Vordokov offered an open contract to tackle the issue of werewolves in the area.

Lethe felt a little embarrassed regarding the public rebuke, agreeing to the challenge in the hopes that in taking this situation seriously we may win back some respect in the eyes of the Red Shields and their leader. He is also offering 200gp per pair of werewolf ears recovered as incentive.
