[1.0] [Campaign] [BUG] [Gamebreaking] Campaign, Chapter 9 - Liberate 3 villages before allowed to proceed, but there are only 2

In Chapter 9, I am blocked in (as marked in the expertly-drawn yellow borders above :P).  If I try to follow that road to next to the block by the river to the southwest, I get informed I must liberate 3 villages before we leave the valley.  I pasted in from the objectives log what the objectives are:  Help Dariun liberate the villages of Bruka, Ammarkan, and Kroyer's Hold.  I found and liberated Ammarkan and Kroyer's Hold, but cannot locate Bruka anywhere within the yellow area ... also, there's a mysterious treasure in one tile completely surrounded by blocked terrain in the upper left, what's that about?

Anyhow, unless I am missing something, this is literally gamebreaking, as it is impossible to continue the campaign without liberating a third village that does not seem to exist within the accessible area.

Just as mysteriously, a few turns after this screenshot as I moved my sov's army to Kroyer's Hold to see if there was an artifact or something I missed there, then moved it toward Ammarkan after finding nothing in Kroyer's Hold, I got a sudden dialog announcing Chapter 10:

 

I don't yet know if this has removed the roadblock on the river.  I don't know what triggered it.

It did indeed clear the roadblock, but I never did find that third village.

Why, the third village was in your heart all along!

Lower Land?

There does not seem to be a "Lower Land" spell in the campaign, only "Raise Land."

Near the end of the game you can learn "Lower Land" which I'm sure is what Michael_Zett was referring to.

I /just/ found that, heh.  I was playing slowly, reporting bugs as I found 'em.
