''The party investigated the caves where they vanquished Snag-ool and Abraham Pelz, and saw a strange demonic quasit fly in from the vertical hole that they entered this cave from. They defeated the quasit and were led to a waterfall with a path behind. A wererat from above ambushed the party. Nyx and Hythlodaeus climbed up the path and escaped, Roderick and Anubis faced off against this creature. Roderick was able to intimidate this creature into allying with him and Anubis. They chased the rest of the party down the path.

The party debated what to do, and investigated Snag-ool's old chambers in the caves underneath the ruins. Nyx gained two enchanted swords that were placed in an enticing chamber in the cavern. A mysterious quasit entered the chamber from above, before being killed by the party, but not before they realized the quasit was trying to climb up a hidden passage behind a waterfall in the cavern. The party debated whether to climb up the waterfall. Roderick pocketed an eldritch Book of Shadows on Abraham Pelz's corpse, while Anubis took a pickaxe topped with spellstone from Snag-ool's personal chest. | ||
The quasit was then followed by wererat Eliya Steck, Abraham Pelz's partner-in-crime, who climbed down into the ruins. Eliya tried to kill the party and almost called down another lycanthrope to finish the job, but she was scared by Roderick, who summoned a minor illusion of Grimsby to frighten her.

Eliya tried to kill the party and almost called down another lycanthrope to finish the job, but she was scared by Roderick, who summoned a minor illusion of Grimsby to frighten her. Roderick and Anubis then gathered that she was trying to kill a demon that she served at the center of the caverns. | ||
Somehow, Anubis and Roderick convinced Eliya that they were on her side and together, and wanted to help Eliya slay the demon and have Eliya take over the demon's position. Anubis was eager to kill a demon, while Roderick just wanted to keep everyone safe. Roderick tried to get Eliya to "retrieve" Hythlodaeus and Nyx, while Hythlodaeus and Nyx, scared and unsure of what was going on, ran off into the mines, attempting to escape the wererat, that was seemingly after them. Roderick resisted traveling into the waterfall, but Anubis was able to take him and chase the rest of the party. | |||
Hythlodaeus and Nyx escaped through the tunnels, dodging traps, and escaped the mines. The beast then got Anubis to enthusiastically agree to fight the Shadow Demon at the center of this mine, surrounded by fungal mephits, while Roderick played along. Hythlodaeus and Nyx, scared and unsure of what was going on, then escaped from the mine into the outside world. | |||
In contrast, Anubis and Roderick then planned with the wererat to attack the demon. After mourning Snag-ool, her old companion, she told Roderick and Anubis to throw Snag-ool's pickaxe at the demon to send the myconids afeter it. | |||
The session then ended with the party split. Hythlodaeus and Nyx were outside of the mine, while Steck, Roderick, and Anubis were preparing to face the unseen demon in the mines, surrounded by myconid miners. |
