 === 21 July 1112 ===
-Return to Imron Gauthfallow's home.  Defeat another //Id Duplicate// of Imron.  Defeat Imron himself.
+Back at Imron Gauthfallow's home...
+//Area 11)// Roof Access
+The party continues their exploration of the second floor.  They find a
+magically locked trap door to the roof -- which they brute force their way
+through.
+//Area 14)// Manor Roof
+On the roof, they find a small, peaceful garden -- where Imron apparently
+painted.  In addition, a //Transparent Iron Window// provides clear observation
+down to the foyer.
+//Area 12)// Study
+Here, among the books, the party discovers a map of [[Southbay]]'s Ivy District,
+with "X" marks on the locations of the homes the party recently visited.  It
+appears to be an enemies list, of sorts.
+//Area 13)// Studio
+Among several paintings, the party discovers one more magical painting.  This
+one depicts a dark-haired man lying on a bed of black and red wasps and
+screaming in utter agony.  They manage to release the victim, but he is already
+dead.  Later research determines him to be Imron's servant, Tharivol.
+//Areas 6-8)// Guest Rooms, Bathroom, and Servant Quarters
+The remainder of the upper floor is searched, revealing nothing of interest.
+//Area 3)// Great Room
+Back downstairs, the party enters a large room -- where a massive chandelier is
+dropped on [[Freyrik]].  When the rest of the party enters, "The Rake" springs
+out from hiding and attacks!
+This man is extremely skilled with a rapier -- but (like the "Enraged Warrior"
+upstairs) ill-equipped.  During the fight, the party notices an uncany
+resemblance between "The Rake" and "The Enraged Warrior".  Once he is defeated,
+the extent of the similarity become obvious.  The two men were obviously twins!
+//Area 4)// Dining Room
+An //animated crystal figurine// is found on the dining table.
+//Area 5)// Kitchen
+Another quartet of //painted servants// are encountered here.
+//Areas 6-8)// Guest Rooms, Bathroom, and Servant Quarters
+The only things of interest found in the remaining ground-floor rooms are a set
+of stairs going down, and a note (found in one of the servant rooms):
+| Your last sketch was lacking.  If you\\ expect to receive the agreed-upon\\ payment next time, I expect a much\\ better rendering and something a\\ little different.  I've had quite\\ enough alien landscapes.  And do\\ be careful.  Imron recently came by\\ my gallery and left with a peculiar\\ look.  He may suspect.  |
+//Area 15)// Hidden Ladder
+Down the stairs, the party finds a carefully hidden ladder that returns to the
+Kitchen.
+//Area 16)// Gallery
+In a massive underground gallery, the party encounters a strange, shadowy undead
+known as a //Shadowy Lurker//.  It confuses and splits the party by invoking
+illusions of powerful monsters and teleporting between paintings.  Eventually,
+though, [[Heilli]] gets a clear shot and destroys it.
+//Area 17)// The Halberdiers
+While the rest of the party fights the //Shadowy Lurker//, [[Yosi]] blunders
+ahead and triggers a stone wall trap.  He and [[Líkami]] find themselves cut off
+from the rest of the party and forced to defend themselves from ten suits of
+//Animated Plate Armor//.  [[Ketamine]] and [[Allie]] manage to get the stone
+wall lifted just as the two finish off the last of the armor.
+//Area 18)// Storeroom
+Beyond the armor, stairs descend even further to a small store room.  Sensing
+that this cannot be the end, though, the party searches and finds a mechanism
+that reveals a final, secret room.
+//Area 19)// Vault of the [[Id Portrait]]
+Here they find Imron Gauthfellow, guarded by a Shield Guardian and a recently
+summoned Celestial Black Bear.  The wizard is identical in appearance to both
+"The Rake" and "The Enraged Warrior" -- lending support to the theory that those
+two were, in some way, clones of the wizard himself.
+For some unknown reason, Imron is weak and is unable to defend himself
+completely. While the Shield Guardian does his best, he is unable to stop the
+entire party -- and Imron is killed.  Shortly thereafter, when the summoned bear
+and the guardian are defeated, the battles are over at last!
-Much loot taken -- including a minor artifact: The **Id Portrait**.
+Once the party returns to Endrik Archerus, he helps them clear out Imron's
+mansion and assess the inventory.  He is uninterested (and, in fact, somewhat
+fearful) of the magical paintings and "agrees" to let the party keep all items
+of magic.
