The expedition was meant to sail west to [[campaigns:latitude_history:places:sudrey|Suðrey]] in the distant [[campaigns:latitude_history:places:foreyjar|Føreyjar]]. Rumors spoke of an untouched Atlantean outpost there, and [[campaigns:latitude_history:characters:asgeir-axelson|Ásgeirr Axelson]] hoped that relics from such a place might help [[campaigns:latitude_history:places:nidaross|Niðaróss]] stand against the horde. A longship, glory, and urgent need sent the crew out onto the sea.

The voyage went wrong almost at once. Navigation failed, the weather worsened, and a storm drove the ship far from its intended course. Then two [[campaigns:latitude_history:lore:frostvedr|frostveðr dragons]] struck. The party killed both dragons, but victory did not put them back on course. By the time they rested and took stock, the ship needed repairs and the land ahead was not [[campaigns:latitude_history:places:sudrey|Suðrey]].

They made for a cold northern island with low bushes, wind-bent trees, and small dragons that fed on glowing stones. Those stones held [[campaigns:latitude_history:lore:aetherstone|Aetherstone]], a magical essence that let the creatures fly and hover. While some of the crew worked on the longship, Kris and Melody explored and made friendly contact with [[campaigns:latitude_history:lore:terrible-terror|Terrible Terrors]]. Elding chose repair wood carefully from the island's small trees, [[campaigns:latitude_history:characters:mechakirby|MechaKirby]] mended what magic could mend, and Fireetta and Caleb helped inspect and patch the vessel.

Even repairs were not peaceful. Sea Spawn attacked while trying to steal supplies, proving that the wrong island could still have enemies enough. The mission to [[campaigns:latitude_history:places:sudrey|Suðrey]] remained unfinished, but the accident revealed the [[campaigns:latitude_history:places:aetherstone-islands|Aetherstone Islands]] and tied the campaign's future to northern dragons, strange rocks, and ships that might someday rise above the sea.
