Party encounters a peasant village. Oops. The party drops 40 levels of
sleep into six peasants. Only four of them fall asleep. Haeraan follow
the two that are escaping. They chase them to an observation post where
a guard is tries to summon help with a signal tower. Eventually, the rest
of them are all put to sleep and stuff is fine. Imre finally gets to use
his new spell and makes them all forget.

The party travels across the land leaving a trail of amnesia in their
wake.
Orhan 2 Day 62 TE 6055
Tradewind gets close enough to get another message.
"In third floor room of tower of building next to temple of the
Sun. Wearing magic slave collar which prevents all teleport. If I escape
I'm cursed. There's also a stick. I don't have it. If the evil priest
breaks the stick, my collar explodes. If I get 100 miles away from the
stick, my collar explodes. -Oathar"
D. heads in and starts looking around. She activates her sensory marker
when she's close enough and catches Oathar passing notes regarding escape
with the secret slave underground.
D. looks for a headquarters. Oathar sends a message telling party that
Prince Q'Venna's supporters will lead the party to the magic stick, if
we free him from the dungeon underneath the Temple of the Snake.

D. meets with Oathar. Oathar talks to slaves again and arrange meeting
between slaves and D.
Late that night. D. has a meeting with the slaves. They are quite surprised
she is a woman. They give her a briefing and she heads off to meet with
another slave. She finds out that to enter the pyramid you need a snake
torc like the ones held by high priests. It allows you to operate the
platform at the top of the temple. When you go down, you must travel to
the south then down to the prisoner level. He's held in the very last
cell at the very end of the prisoner level. It's a winding snakelike passage.
There are guards and priests everywhere. It's quite exciting.
