Hmm.  I would suspect this refers to Marikhold and not Barstow.  When I was
at GenCon last year, Hugh gave a brief overview on the history of the world.
It was something like the Goblin Wars, then a massive battle at the Blood
Cairn, then the Green Death at Marikhold.  Perhaps there is a magical warhammer
or heavy warhammer somewhere within Marikhold...

I usually use 'scout (adventurer)' or study some item (mainly scrolls) whenever
I'm in the guild.  Other places to visit are Temple of Safandi(X), where X is
number of hours you want to spend there(1-9 hours), and the Grotto(X, Y), where
X = gold crowns bet and Y = risk factor(1 = conservative, 10 = risky).  Max
winnings when visiting Grotto are unlimited.
