Session 170 September 27, 2017

2nd of Onrilden

AD Clock 00.00.03.14

A week after Amadeus, Bavmorda and Lambertus have trained in Villams’ outpust tunnels, Majilis approaches the party to discuss our plans. He reports Shadow Elves have been asking after members of the Keepers of the Council. The price to keep our ways secret is settled after a lengthy negotiation for all of our remaining gems and bejeweled jewelry in exchange for highly useful Gnomish tools. Tools such as a dozen each gas & acid deep gnome darts, adamantine spear and hand held cross bow bolts, and 2 summon earth guardian scrolls. They also agree to forgive the trainees sent to the gnomes.

Majilis mentions the Ancient Dwarven suite behind the incineration chamber. Since Axel decides to leave Thorfus interned in the administrator’s office, we don’t offer and advice or help to Majilis. Promising to keep our plans secret, Majilis and a few other deep gnomes escort the party to the form Umber Hulk/Goblin lair where the party ascends towards Glavnone via the central vertical shaft Ralion used to hook up with the party.

Before the party splits from Majilis, Kotar notices the night cap is missing. A brief panic ensues before Nash puts it on his head and obviously has a private conversation with the ancient devil fish. Nash reports Serithas agrees to cooperate with Nash to poison the minds of our foes. When Edan explains Chuq Nourris was tricked by the same promise, Nash decides to not wear the cap at this time.

During the trek, a monkey autonotom is attacked by a cave fisher that Axel kills with an arrow. The party also takes the time to examine Ancient Dwarven machinery along the route, finding uncut gems in a stone crusher. A horde of Bugbears travelling in the opposite direction are avoided when over two dozen are discovered. Eventually the party halts to rest, the journey to Glavnone will finish the next day…
