Session 14

PCs: Garreth, Markus, Aino, Shadowfang

the ghost

The party gathers their allies for the final battle against Azrahel Koth. Joining them are a scouting party from Outskirt, a band of orcs from the Maladuk clan, and Alfilia with her dragon knights. Shadowfang also persuades the giant Glam-Glam to join their quest.

The expedition travels to Mirror Lake, where they spot the Isle of Mist in the distance, surrounded by corrosive fumes. With protection granted by Um-Durmam, they cross the lake on rafts and reach the island.

On the island, the only landmark is an altar holding the corpse of a follower of Sathmog. When the heroes remove his amulet, his ghost appears and attacks, but they quickly destroy the undead spirit.

The demon Akrae

While exploring the island, they discover an underwater entrance leading to a network of tunnels. In these tunnels, they easily slay a fearsome troll but face a tougher challenge in a crab-like demon summoned by Azrahel Koth. Several orcs fall in the battle, but the heroes ultimately triumph.

Descending to a lower level, they leave the rocky caverns for a marble-tiled labyrinth. Here, they avoid traps by solving the riddles associated with them. They then encounter the demon Khaa, who offers to spare them from combat if they solve three riddles. The heroes successfully answer all the riddles and are allowed to proceed.

The party then faces a deadly water trap where Markus nearly loses his life. Fortunately, his comrades manage to save him just in time.
