After the harrowing encounter with the shadows of the sewer, the party continues forward to face whatever lurks under the city. After finding a path created by the settling of stone, the group sees a light ahead. Upon finding a low lit destroyed great hall, the party springs to action to fight off a swarm of rats bent on ripping up a humanoid form. Opal, releasing divine energy and critically striking the rats, saves the form which turned out to be the mother of the missing children. Having the guards of Brigadier Haws help the lady back to safety, the party continues on, a magical door sealed their exit behind them as they go. Barren and Ren discuss the challenge of mercy killing in regards of the wererat. Passing through the rock filled ruins of the Reulii and their empty streets, the party reaches an ancient fortress showing signs of small footprints leading in. The party travels through dizzying corridors until they find an abandoned armory with the whimpers of children echoing inside. Opal, using her divine senses to perceive, can detect the presence of a familiar demon to Klem. When her and Pinky's eye fall on two huddled figures, she could tell that of the two boys, the older is a demon. Right then from a different door, a large monster of sickly black sludge attacks the party, nearly killing multiple party members as it splits apart and multiplies in the area. By the quick thinking of the party, moss doing everything ;), and Ren throwing a magical sword that the monster was feeding upon down a fathomless depth, the party survives and decides the rest.
