The party (Tiberius, Nirrana, Samirah, Tasnim, and Sul abSil) spend the night in the ashiras' grove, in the morning setting about pruning the orchard and generally resting and healing. The group spends the whole day and the following night among the Zakharan dryads before setting out back to the Town of the Lost.
They reach the werejackal's cave without incident, choosing to sleep in the crevass beyond. The following day the group continues on to the town, passing the final crevass and coming almost within side of the crude palisade when a dao arrives. The party recognizes the genie and they quickly kowtow...except unwise, young Tiberius, who says that his father could take the dao out without working up a sweat. Suddenly, the group finds themselves caught up in a game of genie-chess along with one the dao's other slaves, a 12 year old boy named Alexander. The party is trashed by kobolds, troglodytes, bullywug, lizardmen, a naga, and a lizard king, waking up after the illusions pass. Now, slaves of the dao, the genie orders the group to steal a magical mirror from the home of a nearby sha'ira. A bit of trickery of Alexander's part gets the heroes outfitted by the Dao, but it also places a wall of sand between the party and the village.
There is no going back now!
