Thinking With Portals

(return to session list)

Synopsis
Still deep in the ruins of the Old Orc Encampment, the party successfully recover the Dual Crystal Key, cause some minor structural damage in search of treasure, and discover that Yan Turin is behind the desecration of the area.

They spend the evening trekking back to the Fuurinae Hanok and set off back towards Daelin in the morning.

Arriving late in the evening, the party head straight for the Sapphire Tower, where Hymn scouts ahead and ends up fighting a harrowing battle alone. The key is reunited with the relic, which opens a portal to a demiplane. The waiting Shard Guardian takes out Vangdondalor and Ignatious but is defeated. Hymn drags the unconscious Ignatious through the rapidly shrinking exit portal but Godric's curiosity gets the better of him and he is too slow, and is trapped in the demiplane.
