With the heroes (Maedhros, Artec, Hamish, Katya, Remort, Borlon, and Gilean) safely back on Torsh, Borlon probes the mind the sahuagins’ minds. They learn about their brutal birthing and eugenics practices. A special mud is brought from the lower reaches and placed in the birthing chambers.
After napping the heroes return to the gate room, but the portal has turned yellow, a bad color. The heroes wait four hours and there is no change. After eight hours, however, the mists turn red. The group casts buffing spells, the party goes back through the gate. Katya locks the gate before they pass through.
Waiting on the other side are three mako sharks, a priestess, 30 skeletons, 15 regular sahuaghin, 2 larger ones, and one leader sahuagin. Hamish and Artec attack sharks. Borlon and Katya are the next to get through. Borlon turns undead, while Katya casts monster summoning II but gets paralyzed by a manta watch before she could finish. Hamish gets critically hit by the leader (lucky shot!).
Meanwhile, Gilean (with the shrunken Maedhros and Remort hanging on) can’t seem to get through the gate. Borlon notices that Hamish is in trouble and casts sun dazzle on the enemies around him and Artec, blinding eight of them. One sahuagin picks up the paralyzed Katya and attempts to eat her; her stoneskin keeps him from chomping her in two.
Finally, Gilean is able to get through the gate, and they see the party in a bit of a pickle. Borlon dusts all but the last three skeletons. Artec and Hamish get swarmed by sahuagin, and the priestess casts a spell. Borlon notices and psychic crushes her, killing her outright in a cloud of brains and blood. Unfortunately, it was a prayer that she had cast. Maedhros counters with his own prayer. Remort dominates a sahuagin on Borlon and gets him to attack another sahuagin.
Maedhros casts hold person and catches four of Hamish’s opponents. Borlon holds some of them on Artec. Gilean (with animal affinity active so he has the claws and ears of a tiger) goes to help out Artec. Just as they clear off the rest, ten more regular sahuaghin come swimming in and attack Hamish, Artec, Borlon, and Gilean. Maedhros holds two on Hamish so he can get away and get some healing. Hamish then goes off to kill held sahuagin, while Gilean, Borlon, Artec, and Remort’s sahuagin finish off the remainder. Maedhros removes Katya’s paralysis.
The heroes then go back through the portal for some quick healing.
