Full report: Sibling Embers
Farmer Jonah was given two giant Spiders by an unknown merchant to raise and harvest their silk and venom. Unknowingly, he was given a breeding pair of Dream Spiders, whose venom is used to make the illicit drug Shiver, and the spiders infested his barn.
We entered the barn and took down several swarms and a single Dream Spider. With the knowledge of at least one more spider, we searched the barn and found a large underground cave network that we explored. We fought more giant spiders and found the nest, which was being defended by a Web Lurker. We defeated her and saw a glimpse of a deep underground forest with purple grass and leaves. We decided to not explore further, and blocked off the entrance to the caves after taking care of the nest. The farmers are planning to move away from the potential danger after the next harvest.
