- We arrive outside Greyhollow, at the site where we previously battled an enraged Bullette - The Bullette moves below ground, causing a rumbling beneath us - A screaming man lays in the middle of the road, his legs appearing to be broken. Ellette uses Vortex Warp to teleport him to the cart - Orlan advances onto the road, the clanking of his metal plate seeming to draw the attention of the creature - The beast bursts from the ground, attacking Orlan. It drags him beneath the ground - Ellette lures the Bullette out into the open using Ice Storm - A number of surgically grafted rods along the creature's flank begin to glow - Ellette summons her spectral dragon, which draws the attention of the Bullette. The massive creatures clash - While they fight, Steve attempts to pull one of the rods free. This fails - The bullette ravages Visidira, before turning on Steve - Steve swings her axe at the largest fin on the Bullette's back, dislodging it with a vicious blow - Kyo dissipates one of the rods with Dispell Magic - Continued attacks against the bullette causes another of the rods to shatter - erupting with a blast of lightning - Ellette magically puts the creature to sleep - As the battle wanes, we notice the missing supplies have all been strewn across the road around us - As the creature sleeps, Steve and Kyo attempt to smash the remaining two rods - As he attacks, Kyo notices that the rod on his side is made from mithril. He manages to snap it - Steve breaks the rod on her side, it is also made of mithril - As Steve continues to swing, she carves a path right through the prone body of the Bullette, brutally finishing it - As the creature dies, arcane symbols emblazoned into its body fade away - We return to the Beholder's cave, where Steve lost her hammer. Bumble, enraptured by the idea of returning her hammer to her - charges headlong into the cave - Kyo can tell that the tunnel has been carved out with extremely smooth edges - as if disintegrated away by something he deems to be dangerous - He climbs onto Steve's shoulders - with both pressing onwards into the tunnel. Ellette, using her flight follows with Orlan - Bumble is obliterated by a Death Tyrant inside the cavern - Ellette uses her sending stone to speak with Elminster, informing him of the Death Tyrant and asking for advice - Kyo intervenes, demeaning Elminster for refusing to invervene. Elminster immediately teleports to our location in response. He agrees to venture into the cave - requesting that we wait five minutes - The sounds of battle erupt from the cavern, before it falls to silence - Elminster emerges, with damaged sword and broken staff. He drags Bumble's corpse - who is clinging to Steve's hammer. He warns that the Death Tyrant will return, its defeat simply momentary - He surmises that we now owe him a favour, should he ever be in need of our help in the future - Kyo revives Bumble with Lay on Hands, returning him from death - Ellette receives a vision of the Death Tyrant, trapped inside a jar - Bumble declares himself the "Hive Champion", believing himself to have defeated the Death Tyrant and returned Steve's hammer - We travel onwards to Luskan - Charlie stands at the gate, seeming pleased that the bullette has been dispatched - The wizard's tower has been rebuilt, with Charlie believing the entire town will be finished within the month - Ellette takes a solution from Charlie which can be used to remove the crown from Steve's head - We then return to the keep - Big Guy emerges from his cottage, triumphantly announcing that he has removed all the bees. Bumble charges passed, ushering all of his bees back inside as he loudly proclaims himself the "hive champion" - Big Guy adamantly insists that Bumble live outside, in a small house with the other bees. Despite initially resisting, Bumble eventually agrees - Ellette then washes the honey from Steve's hair using the solution given to her by Charlie. - Big Guy offers Steve a gift, as he has grown tired of her constant near-death experiences - He removes his gloves, handing them to Steve. They shrink to her size, gifting her abundant strength while she wears them - He mentions they were gifted to him by a dragon - He adds that should she dies or loses the gloves, he will leave the keep - Big Guy has also taught Moodang a number of tricks, which he demonstrates for Steve - In the meantime, Orlan visits Nissa - wishing to tend to her severed arm - She reluctantly opens the door, still dressed in Graxen's brother's cloak - Orlan offers to return Nissa's arm - claiming he can restore it through magic - Nissa agrees, threatening Orlan should it fail - Orlan casts Regeneration, which causes Nissa's arm to painfully grow back - She is disturbed, claiming the arm does not feel like her own - Growing used to its restoration, she retracts this statement - Ellette heads towards the beach, looking for Squeeb - All of the ducks wear hats and scarves, which Squeeb claims to be a crew uniform - Ellette orders that Squeeb clean these uniforms, as each of the ducks are filthy - In the distance, the pirate kings' ship remains in the bay - Ellette screams towards the ship, causing the sending stone in her pocket to activate - The pirate speaks of the process for reinstating the wizards of Luskan - The pirate kings seem keen to return to sea, forsaking the need to manage the rebuilding of Luskan - Inside the keep, Fizzle appears to be extremely excited. He barrells towards Orlan, speaking of "specials" - He holds up an empty vial, claiming it to be special - Orlan takes the vial, feeling a weight inside it. It would seem the liquid inside is invisible - Orlan drinks the potion - Orlan now knows every language in existence for ten minutes - After a quiet week, the group notice that the animals all around have gone quiet. A crackling energy begins to strike at the gound outside the keep. Bumble charges towards the energy, grasping at it with the intent to protect Steve. - His body explodes with violent energy
