Bandaluthia Session 51

Many of the Animals slept fitfully again. On awaking the party found Jacob was gone.

They went down for breakfast and discussed the events of the night before. Rätsel was adamant that the Mother Superior and senior nuns were behind events, and were succubi loyal to Graa’tz. Shaniqua noticed a dwarf looking at them. He seemed interest in their conversation.

Their morning duties took place in the wash-room. The dwarf, named Gannon Halderheim soon arrived, accompanied by two nuns. It transpired the latter two were paladins of Diancecht and had been investigating the monastery for two years, infiltrating the order. The Animals, accompanied by Gannon, resolved to go to the Nunnery itself and fight whatever evil lay behind these events.

The Animals entered the circular building and descended, following their divinations whiched reveal where both Jacob and the Key were. They encountered a senior nun who instructed them to go upstairs. They refused and magic was cast upon them forcing them to acquiesce. As they emerged into the courtyard Rätsel once again tried to confront the sister. She stepped forward, touched him, and the two disappeared.

The party were shocked, but quickly regained themselves. ‘We must find Rätsel, now’ urged Ti Ying, and the group resumed their descent. At the bottom Shaniqua tried to open the door to the deepest room, using a wand of knock, to no avail. Enter the monk. Like it was one of Brother Vicenza’s martial arts displays he struck the door a powerful blow, sending splintered pieces backwards. Inside a darkness was cast to the right, and two succubi stood elsewhere in the room. The party entered and a vrock was conjured. Battle was joined.

The monk and Orc began to fight, and Shaniqua tumbled into the room, backstabbing. Ellodee cast enchantments, but magic seemed useless in this pit. Gannon the dwarf seemed to succumb to the enchantments of the succubi, but did not attack the party. Things were going ill, when the party heard the approach of two more down the stairs — the paladins of Diancecht entered the room and began to fight gamely. The tide of battle turned, though not without casualties. Orc fell, as did the two paladins. However, eventually the enemies — succubi disguised as sisters — were defeated.

The party found Jacob, tied to a wooden stake, and buried him. His soul had been sucked from him. As they searched for the key they found a trapdoor, and below it a staircase down. As the party made plans to get the Key, a demon jumped from the abyss below. Having been reinvigorated with healing they were able to withstand this new threat. As the last enemy was dispatched, the Mother Superior arrived. The Animals had secured the Key but felt another battle was about to begin. However, instead of fighting them she was aghast at the scene before her. Her god had been betrayed.

The Animals left with another Key. A great evil had been purged from the monastery. They, now, began the long journey home to Bandaluthia.
