C2 E33 Maybe Black Mesa

After a long rest, Ailen manages to decipher the rest of the journal.

The party faces difficult decisions as they escape the prison.

The party has destroyed the barrier engine deep in the prison, but now must fight their way back through the upper levels to escape.

Our elven warriors continue their battle against the furnace guardian and soot caps.

Butch, distraught by the physical changes he's experiencing after inhaling the black smokey poison, rushes deeper into the prison. The party once again encounters the ghostly being in the middle of sacrificing prisoners upon an altar.

In the depths of the prison, our elves encounter a ghostly presence just before being attacked.

The Elves have disguised themselves as three guards, two clerics, and a prisoner being escorted to the prison. They make their way into the depths of the dungeons.

Butch performs a small amount of butchering on Buhan, and then acts even more strangely than normal. A plan is made to infiltrate the prison.

After Ailen and Lankrell recover, at least enough for now, the party seeks out some privacy to plan their next step.

After nearly drowning, Ailen and Lankrell are in shock. Most of the party export the researchers back to The Chipped Pot. Butch tries to join Chowda on the trek back to the tavern.
