Of Eggs and Buttons
3xp
The gang was split up into two groups, but eventually found each other. This level was dedicated to caring for Toan eggs. The gang explored most of the level being sure to destroy every egg that they came across. After that they returned to the Tentacle Elevator and went down to the 4th floor.
The Boss Level
3xp
As the gang exited the elevator, they could hear chanting and wailing. They could also feel and hear a deep rumbling. Up ahead was a plaeau. There were some crude huts made of a simple frame and canvas walls in this area. Apparently there was some ritual sacrifice about to take place with the usual suspects (Robed Cultists and a Toan) plus some new antagonists: some weird Morlock type creatures and (presumably) the leader of the Palimdybis Cult, a Blue Robe.
The gang crept to where the cavern met the plateau and decided to do some exploring. They found a cavern leading to the right and crept into it. They soon found themselves in a small cavern room. Most of the room was covered in fine gray gravel, while on the opposite side was a rocky ledge with some bones, debris, and weaponry. Being cautious, Wiblo tossed a rock onto the floor and it eventually submerged into the floor as if the gravel was quicksand. Iris the Thief then climbed the rocky walls and eventually made it to the rocky ledge and returned with the equipment.
The gang found a masterwork short sword, two masterwork long swords, and a Magical +1 Maul.
The Final Battle
4xp
Armed with their shiny new weapons, the gang decided to ambush the ceremony. The two Thieves, Iris and Todd, snuck into a hut close to the cultists. Using some Bull Wasp poison and a blow gun, Iris struck the Blue Robe leader which disrupted the sacrifice and sent the enemy into a state of confusion as they scrambled to find the culprit. Eni paralyzed the Blue Robe, who was about to summon three large tentacles. A bunch of stuff happened.
Eventually, Termis knocked Blue Robe off the plateau and the lady being sacrificed was saved who turned out to be Bezad Abboud's second cousin's wife's niece. Unfortunately, other prisoners could not be save and some adventurers were lost. Upon striking down the Blue Robe, Palimdybis destroyed the pit's walls and the Cult's dungeon structure with its mighty tentacles (60 feet in diameter). The gang was forced to take refuge in a small cave while this was happening.
Several hours later, the party finished climbing out of the pit. They had decimated the Cult of Palimdybis and the sprawling temple structure was destroyed.
