Derro Overload

Gavril headed to the eastern window as Armania was asking if the angels head could be turned or rotated.

"The windows are just glass, the only way to turn them is to open the whole window," Gavril responded.

Gavril then opened the window revealing a niche containing a candlestick like object holding a depleted sunrod.  Gavril then moved to the western window and again opened it.  Again a niche was revealed but inside was a tunnel lined with heavy paving stones. Occasional iron spikes had been thrust into the seams of the stones to serve as a kind of ladder.

Erevel looked down the tunnel and it finally disappeared into darkness.  Gavril suggested looking at the northern window before exploring the tunnel.  The niche in the north contained a depleted sunrod like the eastern.  Gavril took the sunrod out and tried to move the rod holder but it did not move, he also tried the same on the eastern alcove with the same effect.

Infirmary Deeds

The Hellwasp Swarms flew in through the open cupola windows and attacked Armania and her summoned Bralani.

Armania decided on self preservation, floating down through the trap door which she shut and landed on the floor to enter the fight with the Hollow One.  Ciprian began his Bardic Performance while Erevel, Gavril and Agna each continued their attacks.

As the Hollow One fought back he began sobbing and mumbling "Kill Me! Please end this nightmare.  Kill Me!"

The Creature in the Attic

As the battle raged Gavril moved to flank the three armed Derro, but found that his flanking did no good, neither did his sneak attack.  But he managed to hit the Derro, but took damage from the thorns.

Then the Derro cast a spell and disappeared.  Her ally also cast a spell and disappeared.

"Where did they go?" Paullus bemoaned.

"I'll find them, if they are still in the room," Armania declared as she cast Invisibility Purge revealing the two Derro in the northwest and southwest areas of the room.  Ciprian also appeared next to Gavril.

"They are in the corners behind the skins," Armania stated pointing in those two directions.

The Place of Skin

"Where are we?" Paullus asked in a hushed tone.

"What do you mean?" responded Ciprian

"Last I recall we were on the Sellen Starling getting ready to dock in Cassomir!"

"We are in Cassomir.  Don't you recall the ambush at the docks?" Gavril interjected.

"No.  And what are these ribbons doing in my beard?" Paullus continued confusedly.

By the Skinstitch of their Teeth

Erevel led the party up the stairs to the next level with Gavril close behind.  The rest of the party trailed along on the staircase.  As she reached the top of the stairs Erevel could smell the room before seeing it.  The overwhelming stench of bleach, ammonia, and other unidentifiable chemicals filled the air.

The chamber seemed a veritable museum. Dozens of books, jars, and glass containers of various sizes lay on nearly every horizontal surface.  Some of the largest containers were draped with a thick brown cloth. But her sight was drawn to two hulking things which seemed to be a patchwork of rotten cloth and grotesque skin, with stray bits of straw poking out the seams.  There was a buzzing drone coming from the area of the creatures as they went about browsing the shelves and checking out jars.

Unsettling Painting

The party heard Armania's statement detailing the placement of the magic paintings.  Since one was next to Erevel at the bottom of the second stairway she took a closer look at it.

It depicted a gruesome cloaked figure standing in a blasted alien landscape. Snakes writhed from beneath the folds of its cloak, and it reached a clawed hand out from its billowing sleeves. The creature seemed to move and its cloak seemed to blow in the wind if looked at from the corner of the eye.

Erevel felt a jolt of fear shoot down her spine as the figure in the painting looked directly at her.

Mun's Macabre Study

After being escorted back to The Sword Point, Armania cast invisibility and fly on herself and followed the Cassomir Watch as they left the inn.  The guards moved through Pharasma's Pulpit and then headed to Swift Prison.  At this point the four Watchmen marched to the Three Gates district where they patrolled the streets for 3 hours.

Apparently at the end of their watch the group headed to the Admiralty Citadel where they met a new group of Watch headed out for patrol.  The group Armania was following entered the Citadel and didn't exit again.
