Hokan leads VS, Neville, Kain, and Render (and his shield guardian M.I.C.H.A.E.L.), along with paladin of Mystra Valorean, in a search for the evil wizard Sikhil and his associate Chingis in the Salt Mine Seclusium. They explore some tunnels, investigate some strange machinery, tangle with the Yellowbone Goblins a bit, and eventually end up on the lower levels of the complex. In a large pool, they fight some aquatic ghouls, and then eventually find the lair of Chingis and the lich-aspirant diviner Sikhil (and their pet ogre). Render gets banished to a maze demiplane, which drives M.I.C.H.A.E.L. crazy. Chingis drops Hunger of Hadar on the Party, Sihkil drops a Fireball, Neville turns invisible and drops Darkness on Sikhil, who teleports across the room to cause more havoc. With several players on the edge of death, they manage to defeat Sikhil and Chingis and claim some spellbooks, a Robe of Tongues, a Crossbow of Whispers, and a few other items and treasure. Valorean guides them back to town where they can recover from their adventures for a while.
