Level 3

Level 3 starts with the group inside a sewer at the Thalstead keep.

They make their way along the sewer, and find a cultist room with a ceremony/ritual occurring. They kill the cultists and find a mysterious ancient book written in a language they do not understand.

They keep the book, and continue moving through the bowels of the keep. After springing a trap, they are caught in a hallway by patrolling guards. They convince the guards that they are on their side, and they are interrogating Beorn for information. The guards agree to take Beorn up to the wall of the keep as an intimidation tactic.

The plan to interrogate Beorn goes awry when Khaelis tries to throw one of the guards off the roof first. The group ends up killing most of the guards and gaining control of a rook that contains controls for the main gate.

The group uses the controls to lift the gate 6 feet allowing Amaras and his men to charge in. The group holds off an attack group that attempted to stop them from lifting the gate, and decides to rejoin Amaras in the main hall.

Once in the main hall, they dispatch 3 very large banes that were leading the attack against Amaras's men. With the combat leaders dead, Amaras and his men are able to overtake the battle, and the group decides to rest.

After resting, the group agrees to help Amaras with 1 last task, retaking the main spire of the keep. At the top of the spire, the group encounters a bald man named Ustalar, who appears to be attempting to summon an evil god named Nerull and using Thorrack (Klon's master), and 3 leaders of Thalstead in the ritual.

The group defeats Ustalar and rescues the 4 hostages. Just before doing so, Nerull reaches out to them and tears a piece of their soul out. Just as their souls are sundered, each person experiences a quick vision (flash) of some sort.

The group collects their bounty from Amaras, and begins to ponder their future...
