John immediately exclaimed: “The lift room!” Hurriedly, we formed up and moved down there. The corridors were narrow so we had to go in single file, Victor first. He arrived at the lift room, only to find no lift. Every one stopped as there was only a shimmering barrier below him. I was...

Soon after, John and the gnomes began to come out, carrying sacks of gold and platinum coins as well as various strange objects including several floating ioun stones, a figurine of a bear, an old spell book that looked completely useless but interesting due to its antiquity; I would have to...

I led her to the entrance of the chamber with the sky sled and showed it to her. She was just as puzzled about it as I was. Then I asked her: “You know about the army outside?” She nodded grimly and replied: “Let’s discuss that later. The sled, well, never seen anything like it.” I was...

The rogue looked down at the floor, abashed: “When I was next to Victor’s body, I sort of picked it up, and….well……, it sort of bonded itself to me…..I mean I suddenly felt the life of the Forest in that blade and its magic; I didn’t mean to do it; I think it happened because Victor had died...

I quickly followed his instructions, charging down the nearest vertical corridor that led us back to the lift room. The others quickly joined me and for a brief moment, I was able to see everyone in the hall. I took full advantage of that as I cast my speed spell on everyone; Felix did the same...

As we began to check our spells, I noticed that Oller had retreated into a corner and was saying nothing and doing even less. I looked at Grellfinn and he just shook his head. It became obvious that the rogue would not participate in anything else we were going to do here in Castle Korstull. He...

Apologies for the delay. It is a house rule; spell casters can re-learn their spells in one hour; it does come with a cost though. The process is exhausting and damages the Con stat of the caster by two points. These can only be recovered after twenty four hours; no magic can restore them. One...

As Longhelim and I were having this exchange, everyone else was searching this room; we picked up the ioun stone that had been flying around the throne and then John found a secret door in the corner of the room. We poked around in the banqueting room but found nothing else. So, we opened the...

Of course, something was waiting for us; we had barely began to get ourselves organized for resting when suddenly, two nasty undead creatures glided through the wall. We had seen them before; they were the same horrible things that we had met in Dassen; under the palace of King Steppengaard in...

The room did not reveal anything else bar another lever set next to the door. We left it alone as we were in no shape to deal with any other pleasant surprises that this room could throw at us. John then cast a new spell onto a pebble; suddenly, the whole room brightened, as if we were...

I was still in the middle of the room but Longhelim had stormed onto the balcony. I just about glimpsed one of those horrible orc skeletons; there was also another group: these were wearing breastplates and wielding two short swords. This was a new type but they were still haloed by coruscating...

I had been thinking: “Right, so we have a group of devils here in the Chapel; the female was an erinyes; two bone devils and four bearded devils. That’s a very potent force. More importantly, all of them can teleport without hindrance. Fire is irrelevant to them. That means that they will have...

The door was unlocked, so Victor pushed and it swung open. John then sent his invisible friend with a torch. The most immediate impression was of a large amount of beds, bunks to be exact. It looked like a barracks of some sort; there was also a myriad of skeletons, lying as if they had been...

“Well met! I’m Jorine Wareye of Clan Millorn and these are Grellfin Flintflindercandle and Oller Pennyteller.” The first person she pointed out was a halfling who loomed almost freakily over his whole group. He wore heavy armour and his shield bore a symbol which identified him as a follower...

Both Felix and I, with input from John, carefully discussed what spells we were planning to take and why; once that was decided, we prepared them and then mounted and set out. As we approached the fire storm, the view became even more spectacular but in an intimidating way. Little dust clouds...

Thanks. Hopefully normal service will be resumed once we manage to sort out a few details which I will not go into as they could be classified as spoilers; or they could sort out us! As for the adventure number, I am not sure. The GM doesn't always tell me when we have finished one book and...

Apologies but there will be a brief hiatus at this point while actual play catches up with the SH.

With the help of our guides from the Monastery of the Two Winds, our return journey through the mountains was much faster and quicker. More importantly, it was uneventful. The monks were very respectful but silent. There was no discourse to be had with them and in turn, their presence inhibited...

That night we rested, undisturbed again. In the morning, I conjured my steeds. It took a certain amount of time as it was a complicated formula; and I had never done it before. The results were insubstantial creatures with some resemblance to horses and everyone was looking at them dubiously...

Victor was the first to react as he calmly chopped the fishman in front of him; that creature promptly fell over in two pieces; then I stepped up and positioned myself in line with the minotaur; I cast a spell which caused a black ray to erupt from my hand and then strike it; the others had all...
