The group is reunited, in a sense, when they gather on the upper levels of the fortress.  With no time to rest, they gather their resolve and descend into the heart of the forge.

Chaos reigns as assault on the duergar fortress truly begins.  With the group separated and a bloodbath on the entry level floor, is it our heroes or the duergar who have the upper hand?

The time comes at last to assault the duergar in their fortress.

Courtesy of the occupants of the Id Ascendent, the group gathers information with an unwilling duergar informant.

Impending need for more information leads to an ambush at the foot of a sturdy river bridge.

Zev proposes a further bargain with the occupants of the crashed vessel.  Moral quandaries abound.

At a loss for words, it's Zev's time to shine.

The group sets out into the mountains to view the remains of the crashed vessel.

The group establishes their clean room environment and attempts the delicate operation of cracking a few eggs.

The party is shown an unusual treasure in a gnome's metal egg.
