FG and the greyrobes set up camp in FG’s living quarters as mentor does not have enough room… lying tight git. Girls set up camp in the bedroom, the boys have the living room.

As FG unpacks her room, she sends the other greyrobes out to do research, via costa coffee in the library. Notes are compared on the shindrick society… now racoon is dead, maledecore is sponsoring Katamaya. Oh dear, the SS are united.

Anar and Ryzim find info on the Lost Caverns of Tosscamp & igfield. All important Tosscamp info is missing. Igfield set minions to conquer world and set up camp in Tosscamp. Experiments failed releasing demon who battered her black and blue and retreated. With the last of her power she hid loot… inc Dowds wonderous lamp.

Head librarian – ryzim fumbles (-8) in approach (stupid imp) but doesn’t get blown up. Erlini remembers a diary that Gwathion borrowed. Asks FG to send Raven mail asking for diary back.

2 days later Gwathion shows up… without diary. Kelkass’ journals thought maldkore had found creature called Rell. Rell is Eeli Turnass’ familiar. Off to the tower of Yarthak (maldkores tower). Si’gel has been seen entering with magical key, door stays open 40 heartbeats.

Ambush Si’gel, cast charm and truth.

Ryzim successfully charms Si’gel. Anar spell masters truth and can silently cast the spell. Erlini and FG take up position in case Si’gel makes a run for it. Anar casts spell and Si’gel resists. Ryzim doesn’t notice Anar’s spell hasn’t been cast but FG does (OE 98+ perception). As Ryzim engages Si’gel, FG calls out, interrupting the questioning. Anar casts the spell again successfully. FG notices and bows out of the conversation, leaving Anar & Ryzim to question Si’gel. The tower houses some sandestines and he has to adjust some weights on a mechanical device daily. Quwerty’yakka is in residence. Na’waz owns a local small tower.

FG lends Ryzim +10 essence wand and Anar +10 base spells & rituals. Ryzim casts invisibility on FG. Ryzim casts circle of invisibility on the remaining 3 greyrobes. They all enter the sphincter. FG feels a haze of magic. It’s the other party. They all go up the stairs to the top. Imp enters door 1. FG follows going to the peanut room. FG attunes to the chair of scrying. Searches another door and comes head to head with a harpie. As FG almost leaves the room the harpie takes off. Door on right teleport spiral – skull & flame. Anar & team joins FG. Anar commits to memory the teleport spiral. 4th Floor. Through door – private study. FG finds a diary. Detects essence. Anar disables magic trap. FG picks locks. Maldecores random scibblings and jottings. FG pockets the diary. Maldecore worries that shindrick is too small. Pocket the cash. Left door – large bedroom. Right – sitting room. Right – servants quarters. 3rd Floor. Library. Dark essence & dark channelling are magiked. Find oratory. Reading room – open book – eeli turnass wants to take over assembly and be king of aerdy. Door 2 Guest quarters. Door 3 – sacrificial/lab room. Door 4 – storage room. Book – twopac bent on perfecting summoning ritual… fell out with racoon. Eeli turnass has been resurrected. Into mary poppins bag. Lvl 2. Door 1 – ‘waiting’ room. Left door – temple – … n’other door – dressing room. Take a shindrick robe. Devil appears – fierce but bored “No one shall pass”. Armoury – nothing of interest – aredy weapons. Door – same Devil “no one shall pass”. FG piggybacks the visible Anar – treasury. Ryzim gives Erlini piggyback into treasury room too. FG Dispel essence (97+49+12+25+5+10). All chests open: cash & gems & sundry other items. 1st lvl. Huge ‘throne’ room. Bit bling. Right door – corridor bending to right. Into throne room and left door – grooming room. Office – like racoons office. Big thump as something comes through teleport spiral. As we leave devil appears. “anyone bearing weapons may not leave” Anar & Ryzim throw their daggers. FG puts all her weapons in the bag and gives the bag to imp to drag behind him. As they clear the devil, FG takes the bag off the imp. FG throws up Katamaya disguise as she leaves.

Back at base, tip out mary poppins bag:

8x large 30 litre chests.

200,000 gold pieces.

30,000 silver pieces.

Shindrick thought to resurrect Eeli Turnass – amoral & powerful – induct into SS or recover black blade & threaten him.

Gwathion called up to help shift the loot. Informs us that Maldekore’s leg has shown up. Wherever he’s been… he was dead.

Oh, and FG is called forward for her exams…
