I have never done Crystal Caverns. So, I wearied of mugging Frost
Giants in various locations, and went looking for something
interesting to do solo. I first returned to some favorite haunts where
I knew Hill Giants were and took a few of those. A bit more profitable
than Frost Giants, but not so interesting that I spent much time
hunting them.

So, I decided to try CC. Went to the Rygor fortress, and found the
little building at the back. Could see the "snowball" inside, but an
iron bar gate was blocking the doorway. I had never heard of this
being there. Anyone know what is up? Was I just not fully informed, or
is this gate something new?
