The sunrise of the next day (3/29) was particularly beautiful. Silverfish found Aderian and Jerker standing at the fore of The Ranger, out of earshot of Urgesh who fished from the aft. “Regarding the… incident of yesterday. Good heavens… such… thoroughness. One wouldn’t think such unrestrained physicality necessary. Especially given our… shared objective. My dear … “Session #216 – Negation Triumphant, Chamber of Death Breached”

Session #215 – Sadistic Violence and Lust for Loot
The party spent a day (3/21) resupplying on the Naked Isle. They learned the plague, called the Frog Pox, had been sickening the villagers in Osrendell for nearly a month. The infected felt mild discomfort for several days followed by complete incapacitation for a week during which time warts grew on the skin and inside … “Session #215 – Sadistic Violence and Lust for Loot”
Session #214 – Enter the Star Chamber
The long time at sea had drained the stores of food, and by the time anyone thought to count rations (3/14), there was hardly enough to feed the crew and passengers on The Ranger for more than a few days. Sentinel Island was little more than a barren rock, it hadn’t rained in days, and … “Session #214 – Enter the Star Chamber”
Session #213 – Face to Face with Death
A few days (2/24 – 2/27) passed on the ships while the party pondered their next move. When a week had passed (2/28), Urgesh was non-committal, at first declining to return to the island, then reconsidering, finally deciding to stay. Ghevont stayed with him, but this time Bale and Silverfish went with the party with … “Session #213 – Face to Face with Death”
Session #212 – Urgesh Goes Insane
A week was spent on the ships, anchored at Sentinel Isle. Elaria spent some time copying spells from Tienarth. Ghevont looked for divine truth by way of a deep trance. He wondered if the party should be following the quest. Dreaming, he found himself in a jungle where masses of bugs gathered. On one side … “Session #212 – Urgesh Goes Insane”

Session #210 – Ghevont Returned By Wish
Urgesh had just disappeared after stepping on the black circle. He found himself in an ornate room covered in ornate engravings, his back to immense double doors. Before him stood a 30′ statue of a dwarf. It’s gaze peered down at him with a hint of mockery as one might expect from a deity. This … “Session #210 – Ghevont Returned By Wish”
Session #209 – By the Forge of Magrit
After retreating from the crypts, the party went to the former ogre lair where they figured to be safe from any disturbances. Getting out required a key kept by Ollie. He went out at times to fetch fresh food and water during the week. Nate prayed and was granted a spell of purification, so that … “Session #209 – By the Forge of Magrit”
Session #208 – Uncharacteristically Wise
After the retreat from Beoll-Dur, the adventurers rested for a week (1/9 – 1/16) on the ships. Aderian collected an impressive pile of boulders on the beach so that he’d always have a few to carry with him if they went back into the complex. Saul heard the call of Phakta. He rode off on … “Session #208 – Uncharacteristically Wise”
Session #207 – Retribution and Rebukes
Having found a staircase descending into a deep crevice, the party started marching down. The stairs spiraled down a space roughly twenty feet across. A lattice of steel supported wooden treads. Far below, at the base of the stairs, was a river of lava. The closer they got to it, the more intense the heat … “Session #207 – Retribution and Rebukes”
