• Kuriz uses his Sending Stone to respond to the party's query about The Castellan. Unfortunately, he can offer nothing specific – other than the fact that intelligent undead can sometimes be reasoned with.
• The party tries to get more information from their Dwarf captive – but he, too, has little to offer.
• As the Dwarf is still confused from years of being possessed by a Ghost, the party decides to release him. But he chooses to stay (at least for the time being).
• The party returns to the Keep, where they discover that “Parley” banners have been placed at the main gate.
• They chose to respect the parley request. Q, Barry, and Hama meet with The Castellan and his two subordinates at a table in the Inner Bailey.
• The Castellan offers the party a simple deal: They leave and never return. In exchange, they may keep the wealth they “stole” during their earlier encounter.
• The three offer to consider the offer and then return to the rest of the party (though Hama remains by the table).
• Deciding that The Castellan needs to be stopped, the party opts to attack.
• After a brief, but intense fight, The Castellan, his Advisor, and his Scribe are all destroyed and the party occupies the Fortress.
• They take a short rest – during which, Tan casts Identify on the magic items taken from The Castellan and the Scribe.
• They descend the stairs and discover a large natural cavern with some kind of green glowing energy source at its center, and numerous Specters floating around.
• After a long, arduous combat, the glowing energy in the center (and the Specters) are destroyed.
• Underneath it all, they find an oblong rock, roughly 18 inches across, with glowing green quartz infused throughout.
• Tan protects himself with a Protection from Evil spell and casts Identify on the rock. He confirms that the evil of the Keep was being fueled by this rock.
• They decide to wrap it up in bedrolls and take it with them.
