Recap: Previously our heroes had traveled to Loch Modan on the back of Icing-death, the white dragon in search of support from the Dwarves in the upcoming battle against Benedict. Having discovered more Old One influence beneath the mountain involving Ulrich's father, the Metropolitan Liberal Elite standing waist deep in putrid water surrounded by the twitching tentacles of the Aboleth’s limbs in its final death spasm.
Sailing to the Jungle continent of Aln was uneventful until it wasn't. The third nights sailing led to an ambush by the monstrous Fish-men Sahuagin raiders. During the chaos of the boat sinking Potato found himself chasing after Leek into the undergrowth, saving him from a Sahuagin Baron. Ulrich and Corasrov were captured by the Kua Toa fish men and taken to the village of Sloob-Lu-Dop (meeting a captured Anders Blacktain, underworld contact and friend of Corasrov in the process). Greg woke up being taken to the hidden metal entrance from his dreams by the Devil Lamoram. He saught the truth about his past and learned more than he would have liked. Not only was Greg the Archmage Endovanera and his trusty stead the apprentice Greg but Lamoram had tricked the Archmage into helping put Benedict in power and his Magi peers incarcerated in the mage hold. This has been happening in a time loop so that Lamorould tart a r and collect the souls. That is almost complete and when loop 666 ends Lamoram will bring forth the 9 layers of hell upon Ederon. All converging on Sloob-Lu-Dop Village Corasrov and Ulrich pulled off a daring prison escape by way of impersonating a deity which the Kua Toa lapped up. The worshiping ended abruptly when Potato dropped a giant metal prision on the villages inhabitants. Reunited the Metropolitain Liberal Elite learned through Anders Blackstain that “The Spider Queen” Zelvra Avendendis, leader of the Dark Elves was vulnerable at a severely under-fortified "Black Spider Hold". There was also some torture of one of her top guards. They learned much of the routine at the Drow bunker as well as the 50,000 gold that Anders Blackstain wanted in return and planned a heisit on Black Spider Hold. Sneaking into Black Spider Hold by way of the Myconid mushroom men delivery cart our heroes took the 50,000 gold, bested Yochlol demons, Duergar Lords and the Spider Queen herself in her own backyard rescuing her Daughter in the process. Unfortunately Anders Blackstain was killed in the process...
