Involvement

Act One

Orgarth and  Morghal greet the party when they arrive at Grymforge the first time. Morghal demands money from the party as a fee, as  Nere still has not paid the duergar of Clan Flameshade. The party can refuse to pay without consequence.

Orgarth is loyal to Clan Flameshade. Should the party conspire with  Brithvar against Nere, he joins them against the drow and duergar cultists.
