The victorious heroes exit the temple. They head for the nearby town of Silthrim to rest and stock up on supplies. Many of them also get better weapons or improve their armors. Swag hits up the alchemist for potions and phials of potent potables.

There is a Varden contact point here, which informs the heroes that they’ve heard tell of trouble in the desert. What exactly, they don’t know. They can only tell you that there have been complaints of odd critters attacking the desert peoples and that other odd and malicious things have been happening. They fear that Galbatorix is behind it somehow, and they want you to set off right away to check the situation and eliminate any threats.
