As the party collect themselves in the observatory tower stairwell, Steve employs his ranger-boy talents to track Emis. Beleg transports himself and Kaitoa ahead through the castle, while Rook, Dr. Zozo, and Steve follow in stealthy pursuit. But where is the Emissary?

The party fight off hundreds of ravens in the observatory tower. Dr. Zozo has a brush with death.

The party interrogate Qrrrk the Kenku regarding the whereabouts of Emis.

The fracas at Hewgill Castle continues as the party attempts to breach the Kenku's observatory tower. 

The party heads for Hewgill Castle, planning to confront Qrrrk the Kenku and Emis the Emissary.

Beleg, Steve, and Dr. Zozo receive a shocking message from Gurm, delivered by Dante. Next, with Rook recovering and Kaitoa still offline, they decide to investigate the mystery mimic chest, hidden away in a crate in the Danger Room. Then, they consult a very drunk Engo Oldfoot in hopes of better understanding the information they uncover, ultimately concluding they are destined to confront the Wizard's Guild.

Rain falls as the party deals with the aftermath of the battle. Rook and Oldfoot are resuscitated by Dr. Zozo, while Kaitoa remains motionless, his giant axe lodged into the ruined steps of the Temple of Dan. Rook - having nearly been killed - retires to the party's chambers upstairs. Then Steve, Beleg, and Zozo discover the collateral damage caused during the destruction of the White Chain's facade.

Dr. Zozo deploys alchemical fire as Beleg directs his spectre. Steve digs in deep and Kaitoa deals some serious damage. Rook receives a crushing blow. 

The party contend with the Emissary and her very large companion. After today's events, the Temple of Dan may never be the same.

Food and drink are served as the party meets with the Emissary. Will the negotiations be civil or will the situation escalate?
