The Shining Hand
Worshipping the goddess Yelanis {Goddess}, the Siningh Hand are religious zealots who seek out and destroy anything that they deem as corrupted or a source of corruption, which is all shapechangers. The Lately, Shedinn Myastan has been encouraging Yashira Korvin to be more aggressive in her approach to the hunt for shapechangers. This is because Shedinn Myastan is secretly a member of the Nal'Zarahim. If the players manage to kill him, he whispers "The Watcher sees all and knows all. The Nal'Zarahim will succeed in the end, and your death will come by those in the shadows. I come to you now, watch over me on my journey" If the players search Yashira Korvin's office, where she and Shedinn Myastan sleep, they can locate Yashira Korvin's Journal . Otherwise, the only loot includes 4x barrels of ale (worth 150g each) on the second floor, and 3 barrels of holy water (worth 800g each) in the basement, where they also find 6 feral mimics in cages, and 3 empty cages. Additionally, there appears to be the corpse of Baern Brawnanvil, who has been killed . In the kitchen, there is a 3/4 full barrel of wine, worth 300g. Each Shining Hand Templar has breastplate, except for Yashira Korvin, Shedinn Myastan and Tholas Holiminon, all of whom are wearing Full plate. Between their corpses, they players can recover one full set of full plate. Additionally, Yashira has a Flame Tongue Longsword, and an Animated Shield. Each Templar also has between 35g-80g, and one flask of Holy Water. The Templars have the stats of a Knight of the Mithral Shield from Storm King's Thunder.
