The College of Magic
General Summary
After leaving Castle Triskelion and seeing that it is close to sunset the party decide that rather than risk being out in the city at night they should head back to Haven, they just make it in time as the guards are closing the gates and they have to run for them, Ragnaros outpaces the others and talks the guards into leaving the gate open long enough for the rest of the party to get in.
Once back in Haven they head to the tavern to pick up some local gossip, have a few drinks and get a room for the night.
The next morning they head back into Parlainth with the intention to head to the forward camp and then onto the ruins of the college of magic. At the forward camp they chat with some of the locals and Hauflin insults a dwarf mercenary almost starting a fight.
Despite being warned against it they head for the College of Magic, once there they attempt to find a way into the collage below the emerald spire, they end up finding a staircase that leads up into the ruins and Giltris volunteers to go ahead searching it for traps as she does, she finds a trap near the top that she unfortunately fails to disarm and failing all attempts to stop herself goes tumbling down the stairs as they collapse beneath her.
Putting their heads together the party decides to use the grappling hook and rope to scale the ex stairs, eventually making it to the top. At the top they find Hauflin attempting to chip out bits of emerald with his dagger. They explore the ruins finding a staircase heading down the side of the emerald spire. The stairs lead out into a series of underground rooms, as the party explore the rooms they find several dead body's looking like they had been murdered fairly recently, on one of the body's they find a ring made of hair. Further into the dungeon they find a golden throne decorated with jewels, the whole party begin fighting over who will get to sit in the throne, Giltris slips past the others and sits in it first followed shortly by Hauflin, in the end Ragnaros picks up Astra and sits on the throne while still holding her. As the various party members sit on the throne they find themselves transported to what looks like a part of a library surrounded by mist. On a pedestal nearby there is a glowing orb which Hauflin immediately attempts to grab, vanishing. Panicking the rest of the party rush after him, Hauflin makes a game of things leading the party on a merry chase through a whole series of portals dodging stone demons and finding strange books, eventually they turn a corner in a section of mist shrouded library coming face to face with Leldrin. Both parties are surprised to see each other quickly coming to blows, Leldrin splits into several versions of himself. In the fighting the party gradually knock the Leldrins one by one into the mist until there is only one left. The last Leldrin vanishes.
