The party continued exploring the Yangan Dow’s tower, continuing upwards to the fourth floor. There they found a
set of double doors, which were barred, a single door, and a staircase going upwards in the middle of the tower.
The party chose to open the single door, which revealed a room with a large undead creature – some sort of
zombie / flesh golem hybrid. Fortunately, it was no match for the party, which quickly dispatched the foul beast.
The party returned to the double doors, and tried breaking the doors down, but to no avail. Chance cast “Dispel
Magic” on the doors, which then opened easily. Inside, they found a humanoid male in bed in a deep sleep. There
was a distinct odor of hamasin in the room, and the party, after checking the body in the bed, deduced that he had
taken a nearly lethal amount of drugs. Remaining cautious, the party tied up the man, and delivered him to the
guards waiting outside of the tower. In the room with the bed, the party also found a magic green stone that
Gunther was able to identify as a one-use item to cast a magic web spell.
Then, the party proceeded to go up the stairs, with Igny in the lead. The staircase led to a small room with two
animated stone golems! Tempest cast “Speedart” on Maeddes, granting spirit magic to his crossbow. Maeddes hit
one golem with his crossbow, and Igny attacked with Kekax. Meanwhile, Tempest cast “Guiding Bolt” and Mobec
cast “Sacred Flame.”
Then, the golems responded by releasing some sort of noxious gas! While most of the party was eventually able to
shake off the effects, poor Rudolph was turned to stone! Garack unleashed a pair of powerful smites, downing one
of the golems. Then Guther cast “Crumble Stone” on the second golem, doing immense damage to the animated
stone guardian. Mobec and Tempest both hit the golem with their spells, but it remained standing and turned
towards Gunther and delivered a terrible blow that knocked him out cold! Chance then cast “Eldritch Blast”, and
finally the second golem fell. Out of the golem’s body fell a magical gem of great power, which the party scooped
up before proceeding upwards on the next set of stairs.
At the top of the stairs was a small slime creature, which delivered a note from Bilius, revealing that it was him who
allowed the party to see the tower during the battle of the giant slime. Furthermore, the letter said that the
Uberhobgoblin is seeking the materials to create a gate to awaken an Old One, but that the party could stop them
by using their Disk of Worlds. Finally, the letter said that somewhere in the tower, Yangan Dow possessed a map of
the islands of the Disk of Worlds that could aid the party.
And with that the session ended.
TL;DR: The party arrested a drug user and Rudolph got turned to stone.
