The members of House Millithor levitate down the Web filled canyon. After descending three hundred feet, Kiernan stops before the sheer face and pushes his hand through the solid wall.
”Follow me.” Kiernan Morcane moves right through the wall.
Passing through the wall, the members of House Millithor find themselves in a guard room defended by five drow guards wearing uniforms of a white tabard covered by skulls. There are three exits from the room, one to the left, one to the right, and one upwards through a web filled chute. Matron Ki’Willis remembers that the web-filled chute leads to a Shrine to Lolth, the other two exits lead to the administrative offices and quarters for L’Tarranen del Egluth.
Quertus recognized the magical effect that the members of House Millithor passed through as a combination of several spell effects: Mordenkainen’s Private Sanctum, Forbiddance, and Unhallow.
The guards insist upon watching their animals, including Dariel’s Cavvekan, Carcelon’s unicorn, and Marckarius’s riding lizard. There is some confusion amongst the guards as to whether Kilcif qualifies as an animal, but Kiernan permits Kilcif to continue with the members of House Millithor. The guards make no objection to the Wraith Spiders traveling wiht the party, and the guards do not appear to be startled by the presence of wraith spiders.
Kiernan leads the party through another guard post where five more drow guards are stationed. Ahead are a pair of double doors leading deeper into the complex and in the distance another guard post can be seen that is manned by several drow guards.
Kiernan walks up to a pair of large double doors. Two more guards in the white tabard uniforms open the doors. Kiernan leads the members of House Millithor into what is obviously an audience hall, forty feet deep and sixty feet wide. Enormous, lurid tapestries featuring grisly deaths and walking corpses line most of the walls of this large room.
A female drow elf sits upon the large throne facing the double doors. Other nobles stand around in the room. Everyone watches the members of House Millithor enter.
Kiernan leads the party towards the elf sitting on the throne. A bodyguard wearing a black Mithral Breastplate, a face concealing helm, and carrying a two headed flail stands beside the throne.
A group of four male drow wizards (one of them obviously a Lich) stands on your right watching your entrance. Matron Ki’Willis and Quertus recognize one of the wizards: Solom Ned’razak, the archmage of L’Terranen del Egluth and the mentor of Quertus’s older brother Eilos. Eilos is not present in the group of wizards.
On the left side are two drow males who look very similar to Kiernan (brothers or cousins) and are also obviously infected with vampirism. There are also three closely related drow females (sisters or cousins), one of whom appears to be a vampire. All five drow nobles on the left are wearing holy symbols of Kiaransalee, although you are not certain that the male drow are members of the same family as the female drow.
Kiernan does a full obeisance before the figure on the throne and calls out in a voice that fills the room,
”Mother, I have brought Matron Ki’Willis of Qu’ellar Millithor and other nobles and servants of her house.” .
The eerie, impassive woman upon the throne does not immediately react to the presence of the members of House Millithor. Matron Ki'Willis does not see the scheming Matron of House Morcane that she remembered, instead she sees a female drow with no skin or fat, just muscles over the skeleton. Blood oozes down upon the throne, hissing as it scorches the cloth seat.
Kiernan’s Mother shifts her gaze towards the members of House Millithor. Dariel reacts in shock and cowers to the back of the group. The skinless drow female stares at the members of House Millithor.
Matron Ki’Willis can sense the negative energy in this room and suspects that the drow woman on the throne is also undead.
