The party was joined however by Mechanus, a construct created by the Celestials from the blood of their fallen comrades and the remains of the Inevitables. The party battled many more minotaurs as they explored more and more of the maze-like section of the dungeon. After battling another leader-type, they discovered a map of the section of dungeon and began using it to aid in their exploration. They also rescued an elf-like creature from the minotaurs named Riswan. Riswan was a beautiful, androgynous elf with reddish hair. He explained that he came from a group of elves who protected the First Tree, an ancient marvel that had fallen into the dungeon centuries ago. He agreed to join the party as long as they were making their way generally back towards the Tree. Riswan also shared his knowledge of what certain areas of the dungeon were originally built to hold. He told of the undead area, where chaos now reigned and how the entire dungeon was built around this area where the original prisoner was kept, the World Eater, and ancient nightcrawler. He also told of various derro, duergar and dwarf prisoners who were working for an unknown slaver who had them digging for a slumbering tarrasque. And of the titan that originally guarded the main exit of the dungeon; an area that was now taken over by giants. And he told of the ancient red dragon Tyrus and his icy prison. Solara asked of prisoners that the party had already come across. Riswan had heard of some of them and said that the white-haired man in thumb shackles was a Chronomancer, bound by those special bonds as he could bend time itself if he was able to weave his magic. The demon bound in the ice block was a cambion of great power from another realm whose named Riswan did not know. The party continued on, following their new map and adjusting it when necessary as some old pathways and tunnels no longer existed. They came across a powerful rakshasa named Rashmarik who calmly decimated the party with fireballs while they fought his minotaur minion. Riswan cursed Rashmarik and demanded the rakshasa return a gem to him. The party was unsure of what this dialogue was about, but had bigger worries on their mind. Badly wounded, they were finally able to close on Rashmarik and Glanrak delivered a powerful blow that finally had the rakshasa show fear. Eventually they prevailed, and Riswan rifled the body of the monster to find a gem which he quickly crushed under foot. After doing so, Riswan took his true form, that of a young copper dragon and he explained to the party that Rashmarik had captured him when he appeared in this section of dungeon, and he thanked the party for helping him escape Rashmarik’s spell. The party decided to rest. End of sessions 12 and 13. DMs NOTES: Everyone in the party is now level 7.</blockquote>
