Session XXIII: Kirree and Vestige Report

General Summary

After Delru, Boot, Deus and Alfonzo helped the angel in recovery of its memories, they've descended down to the Black Swamp. They've started to wander around. After a while, they found several ancient temples and shrines.
After a while, they discovered a volcano cave that lead to city named Kirree. Denizens of this city are called Cinderfolk, they are humanoid-like creatures, covered in smoke and ash with small parts of them on fire or hot. They have met with one of the higher-ranking members and one of three leaders. They've made a deal, that they will handle Lava Worm that causes them trouble in exchange for 4 lava weapons. They gave them 1 month. For each week they are late, they will remove 1 weapon from the reward pool. Adventurers agreed and left the cave, trying to find out how to survive inside the volcano with its high temperature.
On their travels through Black Swamps, they encountered Grungs and another Yuan-Ti temples as well as one, strange and ancient building. They didn't known anything about it, so they decided to explore. They've entered underground complex with strange walls and floor. Everything here was off and even more when they discovered "living" intestines all over something that looked like pool. There was weird creature, rising from the intestines speaking to the adventurers. They've felt like in another time or space. That creature offered them to come and look, opening a gate inside its intestines. They, out of pure curiosity, agreed and entered. They were pulled to a blood shrine with dozen of "lizard-like" people chanting in unknown language. They were stucked here.
There was no way back - except an offering, pact. Delru took a ritual dagger and cut himself. His blood fall into the pool of blood from thousands of creatures before him, joining the god as his servant. Pact was sealed. They left from the doors that opened behind them - but to another island, realm, continent or even plane ? They were not sure but everything was different. They've met animals they have never seen or even heard about. After bit of their travelling they've figured out this part of the world is still their material plane, but with something like "two moons" and "cycling storm". They were too confuse to stay even a little longer. They've teleported, using Boot's planeshift from Moradin. 
After talk with Deus's sword and patron, he found out the being Delru pacted with wasn't a god, not entirely. He was already forgotten, making him nothing more than powerful mortal. This was the only way for Delru to get rid of this blood-pact he was forced to make. 
They've prepared, Alfonzo sold his farm for the party to have chance with more magical elixirs. They've teleported to the Temple, walking straight towards the intestines and meeting the evil god. They've attacked him, fight took almost an entire hour, but they were able to defeat him, catch him and deliver the final blow. Boot's eyes were crushed during this process, but with Tyr's help, he was able to gain his vision back, stronger than before.
