Orhan 5 Day 15 (Continued)

When last we saw our heroes, they were lost in the labyrinth of evil portals, looking for a way out that didn't involve fighting wights.

Through the treasure room (we found a few gems) we find another secret door. D. hears nothing and we open it. Zig-zaggy corridor. Haeran can't find any traps, but neither can D., so we decide to press on. We find a secret door from the labyrinth back to here, and then follow to the end where we are back in the labyrinth. But there's a door. We're in a corridor of five doors.

We decide to go back to the right hand wall plan; it's doomed to failure but we press on. We find a door. It's trapped which is promising, but we can't disarm it, which is not. Oathar sends a poor defenseless rope to open it. It really is a trap. It fries 10' of the rope with a stun cloud. Poor little rope. It served well.

We decide that these corridors all fail to lead to the Southwest. So, Oathar decides to portal through the wall.

We open a portal, see the laboratory, and Juzlin. She points and says, "Kill them!" Two zombie giants and two apparitions start closing. We engage! We have a big combat. Imre gets Mind shocked for days. Sigh. But he can still cast Protection II on us. Oathar get off one hell of a water bolt, then starts playing with his elemental servant. Kyrik gets stepped on and it sucks to be him. D. gets mind shocked too. Haeraan gets rid of his giant. Things start looking a little bad for Juzlin, so she yells, "Help me Grandfather!!!!" An Inky black thing starts appearing. It's a ghost. Oh dear.

We finally deal with most of the bad guys, though Juzlin starts heading for the teleport gate. Jack and D. valiantly try to keep her from escaping while Oathar keeps blasting her. She barely escapes. Oathar, Jack and D. follow.

Back in the lab, Haeraan, Imre, and Kyrik manage to kill the ghost and the last giant, leaving one apparition. Imre and Kyrik jump through the gate. Meanwhile, the first three have killed Juzlin, but not before she got to ring the artifact chime! The chime summons a terrible demon in the circle. Oathar makes the circle a containment circle. Imre recongnizes the evil chime and quickly attunes to it. He then rings the chime and the demon says, "Yesss….my massster." "I abjure you and banish you back to the pits from whence you came!" Haeraan arrives just in time to see the rest of the thing leaving.

Jack rapes Vollandra for her power points. We get back to the bedroom for some healing/sleeping.
