Welcome to the boards, I-RZ#! May your enemies quake at the sound of your passage.
You can pretty much do this next part in any order, although you will have to do the Stout Mines before you can do Dragonspire. And you need to do Shurugeon Castle if you want to pass Dragonspire without a memorable and lengthy battle in which you may very well die... multiple times...
And do beware the salads. They're the inspiration for the unofficial Ironworks W&W motto: They WILL hunt you down... When you find them, remember that running like a scared three-year-old is not always such a bad battle plan
Keep us posted on your adventures and do come on back for some more fun!
