And then there were 5!

-Grunk, Carbuncle, and Gareth go into the pit and garbage. Kire joins them after having the crowd throw garbage at him. Everyone uses a rope except Gareth, who sees a ladder. Thong went too.

Orander Greymere, the noble, joins the party. He's a snob.

A tentacle shoots out of the water and grabs a rat. WE ATTACK!!! We beat it with arrows.

We move onward into the sewer. Loud water ahead. A purple blue light is ahead. There is a big room. 50 ft. square. There is a portal ahead. A 10 ft. hemisphere, glowing blue. It's a giant toilet.

Grunk is going to fall into the interplaner shitter. "Oh bloody hell." -Orander

Gareth throws a rope down to him, but he doesn't catch it. Carbuncle experiments with a bag on the end of a rope to see if Grunk has disintegrated or not. Something starts pulling on the rope. We tie it on the eye, and soon…. Up comes Grunk covered in shit.

Carbuncle goes to look at the runes on the top of each of the four entrances to his chamber. Kire and Orander go and look at the runes. Orander says they are wards but everyone ignores him.

Carbuncle tries to walk up the pass with the chipped rune. The runes end up stopping bad things from coming in from other planes.

Thong leaves to report the situation. The group travels up the tunnel with the damaged runes. It leads to a walled-in end. The group then goes up the Southern tunnel. It ends in a shaft with a locked trapdoor at the top. Grunk marks it for later. The last hallway goes to a grated end. We scare a little boy. Thong returns with help.

The priests are each from Pelor and Tritharion. They will guard the rope and work on replacing the missing runes.

We decide to go down into the portal after we get equipped for wading through doodoo. We buy wax pants. There are mountains of garbage and a river of waste. Trees grow here! We feel lighter.

An orange sky and other portals dot the sky. a trail is visible. We follow it to a lake and a pier! WE build a raft and we are surprised by a large green blink dog. Grunk feeds it.

As we paddle across, we see a light on the island. Something walks in front of it. There is also a canoe. There are piles of wood, metal, and rotten food here.

The group finds... A MAN!! His name is Sangris from the town of Farthen from the Duchy of Fenthris. Carbuncle casts a detect magic and finds the man is wearing a magic ring. Sangris is hit with a load of questions but doesn't falter. Although the group decides the scaffold was never actually there. Sangris decides he must sleep off his drunk. Orander got busted being a peeping tom. Some tracks are found leading the party to believe he has further lied.

It is believed the creatures from the lake have contact with him. He might be lying to protect his magic ring. Even though all evidence points towards him, but we will continue to search until we are sure. The party decides to stay and guard Sangris until morning when we will confront him about inconsistencies in his story. Orander watches Sangris take a leak... intentionally. Party wakes. Sangris still asleep - presumably hung over. Finally wakes up. Still has holes in his story. His scaffolding story doesn't match up with what we saw!
