=== 14 October 1111 ===

The party decides that the caves where Siolim, the Gauth, lived would make for a 
safe refuge.  They gamble that the portal will remain open all night and rest 
there.

=== 15 October 1111 ===

Back to the Tower of the Way and on through the next attuned portal...

//Portal Y5D)// The Blasted Land

In an alien, unstable landscape, they encounter a magically warped Yuan-ti and a 
mass of magical writhing black tentacles.  The Yuan-ti makes a break for the 
portal, but the party stops him and retrieves a **stone** that is highly evil, 
chaotic, and psionic.

//Portal Y5A)// The Wretched Swamp

In a deep bog, the party stumbles into a Spirit Naga and a Green Hag fighting 
each other.  The fight becomes three-way.  In the end, both enemies are killed, 
but the Green Hag manages to //dimension door// away before falling over.

The party is forced to spend some time locating her body -- where they find the 
expended phylactery they were seeking.

The party decides to retire to the Tower of the Word -- and see if they can 
repair the King's Scepter (found in the Gauth's cave the previous day) using the 
tools in the //Chambers of Creation// (Rooms Y6 -- just above Zoldathra's 
Library).

While there, they ask Zoldathra some more questions and he advises them to 
destroy all the artifacts they found -- including the King's Scepter.  They 
ignore him about the Scepter, but destroy the phylactery and Sertrous-touched 
stone.

However, the "tactics" section of the module suggest otherwise, so I chose to award XP closer to the actual CR.  Also, my wife insisted that her character make a level, and CR 7 wasn't quite enough))  |
