Evin Binder agreed that he would meet Tew in the Roc's Guild Hall.

			That put the group in a bit of a conundrum. They had not yet talked to the Roc's Guild leader, Teera Geru. So, they retired back to their flat in the city and decided to go out the next day and find some rogues that could get a message to her. Eventually after finding a rogue named Fritz who was shaking down a shaahesk blacksmith, they demonstrated Lana's runic power to him and told him to set up a meeting. He was able to get one for the next day.

	After reporting back to Evin Binder, who was pleased with their work, the party was rewarded heavily with money and items. Evin Binder had another mission for them with some equally good possibility for reward. The party deliberated briefly and then agreed. Evin told them his plan to weaken the local Demon Lord Hutha and eventually control Varwat Citadel for himself and the Burning Page so they can turn it into their center of organization. He heard a rumor that several groups of Hutha’s people in the city are interested in learning this new power of runic magic.

After reporting back to Evin Binder, who was pleased with their work, the party was rewarded heavily with money and items. They spent heavily and worked on making some improvements to the small flat that Evin Binder gave them not long before, from a previous adventure.

The party is to recruit and escort them back to Evin Binder, extracting them from trouble if necessary. To figure out their next move, the party selected a tavern to visit, and purposely picked one that was near Commander Tew's outpost on the southwestern part of the city. Their hunch was correct. In the tavern was an off-duty female adomkuro soldier, whom they clumsily approached and tried to ply her with liquor, which partially worked. They found out that Tew would sometimes hire adventurers and they could ask a courtier for a meeting time with him. After that, the group decided to scout Tew's camp and tower, and they found that it was heavily guarded. Ash flew near the ceiling o the massive cavern containing the city to avoid detection while Brunhilda and Maloney approached the front gate to talk. At the gate, a shakedown occurred and the pair wound up paying a lot of gold but eventually got a meeting arranged with Tew by the same sergeant they met in the tavern.

			Commander Tew told the pair that he would meet with Evin Binder in his tower or in a neutral place, like the main Guild Hall of the Roc's Guild in Varwaat Citadel. Maloney said they would take this information back to Binder and see what happens.

	That was pretty much all they could notice before the grand melee ensued. As they fought, Agel fell in battle, and the group pushed on, slaying demons and devils alike. Eventually they realized that inside the box, if one peered through the windows, was a glowing contract written in some kind of bloody ink. Ash quickly attempted to shatter one of the windows while his partners covered him, and he grabbed the contract and tore it in half. This abruptly made it explode and took the portals with it. However, the party was safe and the keep's demon/devil population instantly evaporated into thin air. The empty keep was wide open for looting.

With this new information, and with Agel's knowledge of the layout of the keep, the group pushed toward the center, thinking that this might be where the source of the trouble emanates. Sure enough, Agel's hunch was correct and the middle of the keep was the source of the battle. There, two portals on either side of the grand hall were supplied by beams of energy originating from a single floating box in the middle of the room. The box had windows on either side, from which the beams shot out to the portals.

			That was pretty much all they could notice before the grand melee ensued. As they fought, Agel fell in battle, and the group pushed on, slaying demons and devils alike.

			With promises of great fortunes and keeping the loot that they find within, the party set off to knock out anything still moving around in the abandoned keep. Quickly, they found out that the keep was not abandoned in the strictest sense of the word. Instead it was full of warring Devils and Demons portalling in from unknown sources. The group was pushed to its limits fighting off encounters with these factions until eventually uncovering a mysterious figure frozen in some sort of suspended animation. Using some knowledge of magic, the group managed to wake up this person who turned out to be a soldier named Sergeant Agel, who worked for the long-dead Demon Lord that once controlled this keep.

			The long-dead (>300 yrs) adomkuro Demon Lord named Belgarn the Deadly once possessed the keep. Rumors say that he was able to obtain immortality, power and prestige to become a Demon Lord by selling his soul to a devil. However, through his extreme cleverness he got the better hand of the contract and managed to press a number of devils into his service at his keep. They fueled his army.

			Even more peculiar was his penchant for dealing with demons. Though they did not honor most deals, Belgarn was able to out-manipulate them into his service as well, and even at times force them to fight in his armies alongside their hated rivals from Hell. Though his armies barely held together, Belgarn was untouchable throughout parts of the Underdark.

			One day, however, his payment came due and the devils managed to take possession of his soul. Instantly, his army of hated rivals flew apart and began to fight for control of his keep, mostly out of hatred than principle or a desire for conquest. The battles within the keep continue to this day, and even get so heated that parts of the keep can slip temporarily into Hell or The Abyss from time to time depending on how much they conform to the standards of those planes and whether or not any nearby portals are open. Sergeant Agel witnessed the early beginning of this chaos before being put into hybernation.

			With this new information, and with Agel's knowledge of the layout of the keep, the group pushed toward the center, thinking that this might be where the source of the trouble emanates.
