Vlad and Fiddle had no better luck opening today. Alia sang her shrill song. The cell door shattered. Nothing worth noting inside. Darian said rites over the human remains. Erin coated himself in magic.Fiddle quaffed his potion. He vanished from sight. Well almost. His glowing coin seemed to light an area just ahead of the party. Gerrick was true to his word. He led the party back to the stair room. Although this time he opened an undiscovered door. Followed quickly by another one. From there the party moved southeastwardly until they came to a fork. They could go East or South."My pack is that way," Gerrick said. "The priests are this way.""Lead on," Erin said.They went South and entered a large room. Another passage split to the West. There were 3 doors in the South."Where to now?" Erin asked.Fiddle strolled out once again visible from the passage to the West. Gerrick moved to the Southeast. The door opened into another long passage."Douse your light," Gerrick instructed. "They will see us coming."The party reluctantly  agreed. They readied their weapons. Fiddle had his bow. They felt along the wall and touched each other. They passed a passage going East and further down one going West. A bright  light was visible at the end of the tunnel. They went down a small flight of stairs. Gerrick rounded the corner."Geynor, I have brought you some visitors," Gerrick called out.Alia was the first to react. She came around the corner and sang out a simple familiar tune. One of the occupants was coated in grease. He flailed about dropping his weapon and shield. Darian closed on the other priest striking him with his mace. Vlad darted forward to the greasy priest, a strange reptilian humanoid with a cruel toothy expression. Erin mumbled a spell and moved to Darian's side. His force shield was active. Gerrick charged the reptile."Kill the priest," Gerrick called out."Traitor," Geynor Ton yelled. "How is this possible?" He reached for his weapon.The other priest called on his Dark Master. He was quickly engulfed in a fog. Spugnoir came round the corner, looked at the fog and stood back. "I guess a fireball is out of the question," Spugnoir said."I think he is there," Fiddle thought. He aimed and fired his bow. "Yellp," a voice growled. "I knew I shouldn't trust you.""Oops, sorry, I've still got your 50 talents," Fiddle tried to appease the gnoll. He then quickly slung his bow and drew his steel.Alia moved into the action. She stabbed at a figure in front of her. It was Geynor. Darian swung again. The Evil priest fell. Erin moved near the other figure. He caught air. Vlad stabbed into the mist. Gerrick ran. He was lost in the mist. A foul stench assailed the party. Alia and Fiddle began to retch. The reptile ran for the exit out of the fog and into Fiddle and Spugnoir. Fiddle stabbed out as he went by. And Spugnoir scratched it with his dagger. He then fired a volley of magic bolts from his fingers into the reptile's back."He's getting away," Fiddle closed on the creature and stabbed it again. His strength was failing him. He barely left a mark.Alia continued to retch. Darian heard Fiddle and ran his way. He exited the fog and ran passed the reptilian priest. The creature clawed at him. Erin sealed the hall with Darian. Vlad stabbed from behind. They had him blocked. The reptile charged Darian. It bounced off the Shield of Lathander. Spugnoir stood by waiting for an opening. Fiddle plunged his dagger into the reptile. Another one bites the dust.</blockquote>
