Session 9 - Uktar 3 (Day 19)

In the morning Saul also brings Carolus back from the dead, the mad hermit heals him and the party continues on their journey.
They discover a cavern with a waterfall and a rusty ladder leading up. The cavern seals itself magicaly while a magical fog fills the room. The party is forced to continue up the stairs to escape from the mind-weakening fog.
In the upper cavern, the party has to cross a small lake. Strange things happen to the partymembers as some are displaced without their will while others start undertaking strange actions and fog erupts all over the place. When Saul casts a spell to reveal invisible creatures, a naga becomes visible. Unfortunately brother Wilfred becomes dominated and Saul becomes magically confused. One naga soon becomes three and the party loses ground. Brother Wilfred is compelled to slay Carollus and Saul almost slays Oni. In the end, Saul has a moment of clarity and dispels his own confusion. He then suppresses the domination on brother Wilfred. The remaining Naga flees the scene as soon as he sees his fortune has changed. The party searches the nagas' cavern and discover magical trinkets to help them on their quest.

Session 9 - Uktar 2 (Day 18)

The party decides to wait for the revenants to return and prepare for combat. After a while a dwarf stumbles into the cave, having fought off a lot of demons who were missing parts of their skin. The dwarf's companions were abducted by the demons. His party was also seeking a solution for the drow undead problem. Danyx summons another outsider to strengthen the party's numbers.
After almost a day, the party hears a shambling noice coming from a corridor. From behind a corner, their two former companions enter the cave, ghoulish features betraying their undead nature. The party can destroy one of them but it explodes upon death, harming the party. While they are focused on the other one, darkness shrouds the party and they are suddenly under attack by more enemies.
The fighters in the party succeed in killing the revenant warriors and once Saul dispells the magical darkness, the party is able to kill the remaining drow revenant cleric. Unfortunately the summoned leonal didn't survive the battle although his mighty roar helped the party defeat their opponents.
After the battle Saul heals the wounded and brings brother Wilfred back from the dead. The party then decides to rest for the night.
