Immediately after witnessing a HIT AND RUN DRAGON TAKE AWAY that damaged three party members, almost destroyed FORGE’s Runic Guardian, and killed nine innocent children, the Questors hand over the child they have saved to the Sambar authorities and head off for a spot of lunch in the Sambar Inn.

After a good hefty spree of luxurious shopping in the best markets in Sambar, Pelius, Aibron Torromson and Baris the Black enter The Grey Rhombus, the legendary magic equipment store of Lantan.

With death, loss and misery clinging to them like lampreys of lost souls, Baris the Black and Nimrod Zamminor enter the Throne Room of Archlich Amathus Wendyll to present to him the Key to the Room of Dark Seclusion

With the Lich Deriath Fogbane destroyed and the shadow-phased Key to the Room of Dark Seclusion in the hands of the party’s companion, Nimrod Zamminor, the web begins to shake. The Questors realise that the end of Gossamer is nigh and flee back across the ravine to make their way to the Guardian Lich Amethus Wendyll.

After two days of rest and recuperation in the cave known to Nimrod Zamminor, the party gain the information they need from Angus Og, using the Orb of Celierre, and set out for the tower of the lich, Deriath Fogbane, in search of the Key to the Room of Dark Seclusion.

The Questors are transported to the Tall Tower in the Citadel of the Dead with the aid of Nimrod Zamminor. There Nimrod waits, holding the shadow realm open, while the party climb up the stairs in search of the Orb of Celierre.

Fleeing from the Citadel of the Dead, through dark webbed passages, the Questors hurried to find the safety of the Valley of Divine Light so they could bring about the true resurrection of Sir Keoghen. As she ran, Quintine Excavar reflected on what they had just experienced. Some sort of unexplained Divine eruption had replaced Vhazeil with a high elf called Gidor Elgyldor.

In a attempt to locate the key to obtaining the Chains of Gond from the Good Lich, the Questors return to the Great Hall with the three telepotation devises in it!

They prepare their spells, but the Part-Angel causes a rift and an Entroptic Enemy appears, but though it is quickly destroyed, the air was left with a hint of discontentment!

They step through, but as they enter the otherside, they have a little time to comprehend their surrounding, Vhazeil Son of Zaphkeil had disappeared and a voice comes, as if from out of no-where, a ballad of a song of Lliira, “the dance of life can go on forever, sometimes full of strife, but if we fight together we can defeat this evil and return to a way of peace!”

The Questors cannot see who sings, but he speaks, “I am invisible, but am here to help you, my name if Gidor Elgyldor, prepare to fight!”

The Questors enter the Room of Divine History.
Aibron Torromson, Quintine Excavar, Baris the Black, Sir Keoghen, Tippit and Vhazeil, son of Zaphkiel find the magic mirror, destroy the living blasphemy and and witness four separate images of the history of Gossamer, gaining much information.

They replenish themselves for the remainder of the day, starting out at midnight on a new day with a brisk hike to the nearest portal, teleporting themselves straight into the Citadel of the Dead!
