Grinning, Fez announced, “We kill tree. Chop chop chop. Tree fell down. Only after Evan fell down. Fez not see why Evan fall down, as Fez being attacked by tiny women at the time.”To celebrate my return from the dead, we had a vast and heavily enchanted breakfast (supplied by Fahrlanghan at Janga’s request), before we all teleported back to Tilagos. I activated the portal once again, and then saw Fez was already turning to leave.“Fez not getting into your doorway this time. Fez not stupid.”I smiled disarmingly. “Of course not, my friend. I wouldn’t dream of trying to trick you. I’ll escort you away myself. Just let me ensure we won’t get spotted. I’m sure I saw something from the top of that wall over there…”I gestured towards the wall as I cast a spell, taking Fez by the shoulders before turning away and guiding him towards the shore – straight into dimension door I had placed behind him. With a wail, he was dragged through into the portal once again..oOo.Back in the demiplane that was Tilagos, we headed southeast, guided once more by Janga’s deity. Passing through the forest, which seemed somehow lighter already with the death of the great black tree at its heart, we reached the sight of the coast. Overlooking the roaring waters, we could see a massive weathered keep – the towers were crumbling and the heavy stones flaked at their edges. Pausing at a point overlooking this edifice, I concentrated once again, and ancient legends came to my mind. “The bound titan Krathanos places himself above his surrounds, but is brought low by a malady of the mind.”Turning myself undetectable, I activated my boots once again, and floated high in the sky to look down on the fortress. From up high I could see that the building was a hollow square of stone walls, with three crude cages lying to one side each containing three many-armed white gorilla-like creatures. Against the eastern wall lay a massive figure some 25 feet tall, with long lank hair, ragged clothes and heavily battered half plate armour. Next to his sleeping form lay a truly immense spiked warhammer, perhaps three times as long as I was tall. Pausing to discuss out options briefly, we cast a huge sequence of spells on Janga, at which point he flew away invisibly, hasted, silently, displaced, undetectable and boosted with several of my more potent bardic chants. Before he faded from sight, Fez passed him his massive scythe.From some distance away, we could hear the scythe strike home and bite deeply. An instant later, there was a bellow of rage. Gargoyles sprang from the walls in a panicked flock, and a second towering titan leapt from his hiding place at the centre of the fortress. Unseen, I could hear Flynne yelling “It’s a decoy! Leg it!”We fled.</blockquote>
