Beyond the Purple Doors.
My ways crossed again with Old Lord Skull & his entourge.
We went Norwick Crypts & beyond mystery-shrouded, magically locked & trapped purple doors.
What we found there was a Lair of Necromancer, Balthazar Kane.
He gave us mission into Menzoberranzan's Outskirts, the Drow City.
We had to find adventuring party of escaped drow slaves & point them into direction of an artifact, of Demonsbane Trident.
We had to not pursue the artifact ourselves, as it was attracting too much of the troubles for our employer. Adventuring Party would kill demons that delay our boss' plans on them own, then attract revenge. Our role was just to hint them direction.
Merryl, Inkubus he summoned earlier, opened portal for us, we went in.
Inside we talked with Drow Militia & Matron Quenthel Baenre and were allowed to enter bazaar & talk to escaped surfacer slaves.
Soon they arrived, we exchanged words then went to bazaar.
i borrowed 10 000 gold pieces from Bronn, and bought a Longbow made from Bone & Sinew.
Others bought other items, not only at this bone stand.
Then we followed rumours of another 'Myrkul Godling', a mortal with blood of Dead-God Myrkul wishing to ascend to the Godly Throne on her own.
We talked a little, she cast a spell on Old Lord Skull, killing him instantly, stealing the godly spark in the process ... getting closer to her goals.
Then she raised him from death speaking words that she has power over life & death.
Old Lord Skull drank potion of 'Heal' then attacked her, we killed her ... and i took insane satisfaction that killing blow came from my arrow.
Old Lord Skull animated her corpse, so it would appear that she's alive for a while, then we fled the drow city.
At lair of Balthazar Kane, the Portal closed behind us, we were debriefed & rewarded.
i got a belt of agility, will have to hunt orcs for a while to repay Bronn Gold-Debt.
