The heroes (Thera, Svala, Jeru, Jamal, Adama, Arthur, Hughin, Urthur, Bao, and Hamish) return to the lowest levels of the ruins under Mitra's First where they re-enter a desecrated temple to Mitra. They begin exploring more of the wreckage under the great copula. That's when Argun the Conflagrator, an ancient red dragon, appears and attacks, breathing fire on nearly everyone. Luckily Bao and Jeru moved to the side while Adama's psionic powers shielded her, Arthur, and Hughin -- and yet despite this, the young mage STILL nearly died! Neither Hamish nor Svala can touch the dragon, so the heroes begin unleashing spells too. Bao is tail-slapped into a coma and several others are badly wounded before the monster finally dies.
The heroes find the dragons treasure in a nearby room -- more than 100 thousand coins! Using a diminuation and item, the heroes bring all the treasure to the surface, heal up a little with Mikhail, and return. Shortly thereafter, the party, led by Jeru, find three lammasu hidden by a special wall of force. The lammasu are happy to help those who will fight for the Tower and they even let the party know of Father Harringdon, a slightly-deranged-and-senile high priest of Mitra, who the party also leads back to Mikhail.
From there, the party finds the open entry to the Dark Tower and moving beyond, Svala finds a room with strange energy that eats your mind. Beyond, the heroes see three minotaur champions in platemail on patrol...
