Session 30

PCs (lvl 7): Flynn, Tuarninn, Udo, Ulrich

MR 673 - Winter

The PCs investigate the brewery, and find a ledger accounting for several deliveries of a special spice received from Nordwander and Son’s Expeditionary Supplies. The party interrogates the owner of the shop, Gudrum, and discover a secret passage in his underground warehouse. The dwarf seems very surprised to realize there's a secret passage in his cellar. The PCs believe someone used the passage to substitute the spices with something much fouler.

Through the passage, the PCs descend into Khazalgirt. They ask the locals about anything suspicious, and they're directed to Nargrimi at Lord Gazul' Underearth. When they arrive in the catacombs, a group of minotaur skeletons and dwarven zombies attack. The PCs destroy the undead creatures, and notice that all the zombies were corpses belonging to the Harataki clan. Silently, Nargrimi confirms that something in amiss in the hall of the Harataki.

The PCs, together with a small contingent of dwarves, go to Harataken Hold, were a slaughter is already taking place. While frenzied dwarves kill raging dwarves, the PCs enter the hold and face Queen Vilda. The dwarven noble is wholly corrupted by the demon lord Baphomet, lord of rage, and together with her demonic servants she throws herself at the PCs in a frenzy of bloodlust. After a short but violent battle, Udo shoots one final bolt through the queen's neck, putting an end to her madness.
