Did Kavis become delirious because he is sober to long?<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The party in Wyntbridge checked around and found the Centaurs are camped outside of town looking for a Dwarf named Kavis. The Otters have beaten off a small land schooner at Dillhole. \u00a0There is a rumor that there was a rebellion in Marshvale to the south east and another rumor that the King is coming up river to Wyntbridge but no one knows why. \u00a0The three well armed Dwarf miners were looking for a potion of treasure sense and are interested in the quarry. \u00a0The priest of the Dwarven shrine is interested in the quarry as well.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The party decides to track down the three Dwarfs and get a wagon and head out east after the last known direction they were seen. \u00a0Cloverdung tracks them heading out east and then circling back around to the back of the quarry where he sees a rope tied off and drops into the quarry right next to the cavern entrance.<\/span> The party heads in and find that the side passageway has had a circular path cut through the debris of the collapsed cavern. \u00a0The party follows this path and find a room that has a teleportation chamber that requires a amulet to activate that no one has. After a couple of attempts to get it to work with only getting some electric shocks the party gives up and heads down to the old Orc throne room. \u00a0There they go through the large door behind the throne. \u00a0This heads down a hallway and several flights of stairs heading down. \u00a0It finally leads to a room with a with a cylinder hole in the floor with a rope and a basket. \u00a0The party lowered themselves down and find the room with a bell in the corner and a tapestry across the exit. \u00a0This lead down to a room that the party kill Hobgoblins the previous time they were here. \u00a0They head on past this room following the hallway past the murder hole slits to an intersection and turn south and come to another intersection just before some stairs. \u00a0This is was the path Othello was looking for the headed to the three fake doors but had the trapdoor in the middle the lead down. \u00a0But Cloverdung says there is a secret door and the dwarves went that way. \u00a0So Othello meets the party and he sneaks head and finds a air vent that he does not like but manages to get by it and heads down to where a liquid is dripping through the ceiling. \u00a0After Othello taste it he finds that it is just pure water and heads on past. \u00a0He finds a passageway off to the left and one to the right that look to be collapsed or just come to a rough point. \u00a0There is a larger passageway headed off south. \u00a0Cloverdung finds another secret door off the first passageway and calls for Othello to come back and open it. \u00a0Tetranac heads on passed Othello heading down the passageway once we determine that the secret door leads to another teleportation chamber. \u00a0This is where Tetranac and Talin run into a rumbling noise. \u00a0\u00a0Tetranac finds a Umber Hulk break through the ground and starts pulling him back down the hole. \u00a0Talin confused by the Umber Hulks vision runs back the way he came. \u00a0The party heads towards the commotion. \u00a0Bone and Mightychondria heads down to engage the beast. \u00a0Gubikla cast a lighting bolt down the hallway after Tetranac manages to get free and has levitated to the ceiling and was dragging himself back to the party. \u00a0\u00a0Cloverdung shoots down the side passageway as \u201cCover fire\u201d. \u00a0Talin heads up that direction to see what’s going on. \u00a0Othello confused on where the threat is follows Talin down the curved passageway. \u00a0Bone and Mightychondria after being confused a little start attacking the Umber Hulk. \u00a0Talin rounds the bend and finds several pairs of eyes looking back at him. \u00a0He then turns and throws his hand axes and hits Othello with both of them. \u00a0Othello shoots back with a lightning bolt from his wand \u00a0and lets it bounce around the unseen room. \u00a0Bone manages to take down the Umber Hulk attacking them after it taking significant amount of damage indicating that was probably one of the bigger ones. \u00a0Othello shoots another lightning bolt this time not caring if it hit Talin and he wanted to make sure to hit the two coming at him. \u00a0\u00a0Luckily this took out both of them. \u00a0Talin swings and hits the last one but Othello is left taking it out with a bolt after he got confused again. \u00a0After this battle and a previous encounter with a different Umber Hulk earlier the party decides to rest to recover their spells. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The party then heads back to the trapdoor and find a long circular passageway with ladder rungs in the wall on either side. \u00a0After Gubikla casts light on some light some remains the Umber Hulks left behind down the hole, the party sees that there is an iris that is closed at the bottom of the shaft. \u00a0Othello and Talin are climbing down and find the last rung is a switch that goes up and down. \u00a0Talin pulls his up and the iris opens up and a gust of air shoots up. \u00a0This manages to shoot Tetranac up as he was levitating down. \u00a0Tetranac manages to use his whip and latch it to a rung but the whip itself slips through his hands and manages to fall down to another iris farther down. \u00a0Othello manages to lose his grip and fall down as well but is able to activate his controlled falling device and floats down to the iris next to Tetranac. \u00a0Tetranac pushes the next switch down but nothing happens so he pulls it up and this time there is not a bust of air out but instead it sucks everyone down into a room that has a door at one end with six bolt locks holding it in place. \u00a0Othello and Talin figure the iris needs to be closed for us to be able to open the door so Othello pushes a button near the iris and the iris shuts and at the same time the air is sucked from the room. \u00a0This apparently was not expected by Mightychondria or Tetranac and they fall unconscious. \u00a0The rest of the party sees the first bolt slowly drops loose. \u00a0So the party waits holding their breaths for the rest of the bolts to free the door. \u00a0Once the final bolt comes free the door swings open leading to another chamber with a similar door. \u00a0\u00a0Once the party drags Mightychondria and Tetranac into the room, close the door, and push the button near that door the air comes into this room allowing the party to move past this door to another door but this time it has a wheel lock. \u00a0This leads to a domed room with a blue sphere light at the top of the dome and a raised metal chair the center of the room with levers all around it. \u00a0The party finds dwarven letters next to the levers (B, F, O, D, G, L, D). \u00a0Talin climbs into the chair and Cloverdung tries to get him to pull the levers in the order of g-o-l-d claiming that was the most recently used levers. \u00a0Talin instead pulls the D lever as that was the letter seen carved into the hallways marking the dwarfs path down. This creates a bunch of noise and then a staircase gets created as part of the floor drops away in front of where Bone was standing. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
