They are able, however, to confront the glabrezu they saw fighting Bru, and conclude that Brummen must be somewhere on the Abyssal plane.

They then took her note to Kaede in Kenabres, who in turn sent them with a note to Natasha Galdana at Willowmourn in Kavapesta, Ustalav. Mu found a note in his own handwriting, stating where to go as well as who to give an item to that was discovered in Aysel's bag. Lullaby and the bandits seemed to expect the party, as did Natasha.
