Session 19 – Journey Into the Earth

We continue through the demon fortress. Presently we find a small room with what appears to be a portal. A keypad rests next to the portal gate, ostensibly for choosing the portal’s destination. We decide not to go through the portal until we have searched the rest of the fortress. We hear screams from the next room, and find that it is the castle’s torture chamber.

In the tower’s torture chamber, we fight a large monkey-creature and a crystaline entity who were torturing a Sprite. After the battle we attempt to heal him, but he is in very bad shape and does not seem to know where he is. We attempt to explain that he is in Mulkra, but is very confused. He passes out from exhaustion. Deciding that we cannot take him with us, we hide him underneath a large bed and move on.

The group finds an “orgy room” with succubi who have (nude) men in their thrall. We kill the succubi and the men recover from the spell. Porodo is only momentarily affected by the succubi, and does not manage to cause any damage to the other party members.

The (nude) men seem to know each other, but are confused as to their whereabouts, similarly to the Sprite. They ask us if we know a way out of the castle, and we explain that they could either help us defeat the rest of the demons or go through the portal that we found. They decide to go through the portal, so we lead them to the room and they depart.

We continue through the fortress, and fight a roomful of stunted demons.
