With a slight mishap in teleportation, Aravashnial, with Good Question and Sir Charge-a-lot had some shenanigans in which Sir Charge-a-lot attempted to do a barrel roll with the mage on the back.
All this while, Edith was watching with wide eyes through scrying as maneuver caused both the cavalier, and the mage to fall off the saddle. Luckily, with feather fall, Aravashnial managed to save both himself, and Sir Charge-a-lot, although he is now immensely unfriendly to Sir Charge-a-lot.
Edith quickly came in, and gave Aravashnial a face-saving excuse stating that the location has now been changed.
Exploring the Material Plane portion of the Midnight Fane, the Heroes, with Alleycat, Aravashnial, Ayavah, and Queen Galfrey, cleared the entire complex of demons.
They also drove away Minagho, the lilitu demon, and found the desiccated husk of Yaniel. Erasmus broke the curse with his laying on hands, and Elave stabilized Yaniel with her heavenly fire.
Queen Galfrey suggested resting, and bringing Yaniel back up to speed, for anybody who was in that desiccated shape was bound to have suffered tremendously under the hands of the demons.

Yaniel on recovery, unlocked the full powers of Radiance to Erasmus. Queen Galfrey opt to bring Yaniel back to Nerosyan to recover from her ordeals.
On closure of the portal, the Queen's fate is unknown, but the Heroes were ambushed by a half-invidiak ankou, whose name, Nezirrius, was legendary in the Midnight Isles, as that of a famed assassin, hired by Minagho herself.
Only knowing that they are on the isle of Vazglar, the Heroes wanted to travel to Alushinyrra, the capital of the Midnight Isles to gather information. Hopefully, with a large gathering of humanoids, the Heroes can travel incognito amongst the deadly inhabitants of the Abyss.
Arueshalae has given the party multiple contacts in Alushinyrra, they are:
1. Nocticula herself, although to attract her attention, you must work to get them.
2. Vellaxia of the Rapture of Rupture. An enterprising succubus who enjoys entertainment.
3. Shamira, the Ardent Dream. A nascent demon lord who rules over the isle of Alinythia, the isle where the city Alushinyrra is based.

The remaining people at Drezen was alerted to a gruesome murder in E&E, Elave, and Edith's store.
A few items were found missing, but further investigation concluded that Staunton Vhane's armor came alive, with him back as a graveknight.
Joran Vhane, was slain by the graveknight, for refusing to join his brother in embracing Baphomet.
Back in the Abyss, the arena fight was short, and bloody, with the Heroes of the Fifth Crusade killing both Gelderfang, and Minagho in quick succession.
With this, they attracted Nocticula's attention, who asked them to meet her at the Vault of Graves.

The Heroes of the Fifth Crusade travelled the length of Colyphyr to look for the Nahyndrian Mines. They stumbled upon a horde of gathering vrocks, led by an ancient green dragon. They seem to be amassing for an assault on the Fifth Crusade in the Worldwound.
They also found the barge which was originally used to carry the Nahyndrian crystals to and from the Midnight Isles.
Aravashnial laid an arcane mark in the portal's vicinity, hoping that if need be, this portal can be used as a way back to the Material Plane. The Heroes thought that this path could lead straight into the demon army's heart. Good point! But it will be a backup escape route.
Avoiding the demoniacs at the gate, the Heroes met an omox demon called the Fulsome Queen. She requested the party for help in clearing her home of the shadow dragon, and the "ants" who are digging into her home.
The party dispatched the abyssal harvester, and have discovered the shadow dragon's hoard, but did not remove the hoard as it is extremely time-consuming to recover so much treasure.
Areas Explored:
J1-J4 (No treasure recovered yet)

Our planes travelling Heroes of the Fifth Crusade ventured into the depths of the Ivory Labyrinth, home of Baphomet.
Baphomet boasted that he has corrupted Iomedae's Herald, and visited by the goddess herself, the Heroes ventured without any hesitation.
Burning open the lock of the Ineluctable Prison, they ventured into the depths of Baphomet's original prison, where they slew the following:
- Uffrandir, a tarn linnorm
- Ylleshka, the prison's Warden, a 12-armed, 2-headed marilith
- Alderpash, the first Runelord of Wrath
- Plorig-Stagul, the primary torturer
With enough keys in hand, the party can finally teleport to the Herald's Prison.
Areas Explored:
H1, H4, I, J, K, N, O
