We tell the others to find another crossing while we head up the path to the large metal structure
There is a large opening in the structure that seems like a large chunk was ripped out.
Neif is not able to detect any traps so we head into the gaping hole
Tazlin brings Davric over to a terminal who translates it and says its a report on some kind of goods distribution network
Tazlin calls over Neif to help translate a control console. He says its a "Distribution control console"
The lich appears in front of Tazlin. Just as he reaches out to attack Tazlin Tazlin cries out "WAIT". He is able to convince the lich that they have a common enemy and that they should join forces at the moment. The lich agrees and tells us he is Stevus Archanist the First
Stevus tells us about his tragic backstory and his dead family he is trying to bring back to life
We go to open the last door in the room revealing what appears to be just a small empty room. As we open the door the people under primes control who had been just standing about come alive and attack
Stevus uses power word kill to eliminate one of them.
After we kill them one of the strange clouds that have been floating about starts to hover over one of the bodies. When it floats away the body is gone
Neif tries to loot the other body just as the cloud starts to absorb it. He gets slightly burnt by the cloud as it absorbs.
We all gather into the "lift" and Stevus presses the button for the top floor
This part of the ship seems to be in better condition. Brighter lights and shiny floors/walls
Neif finds a cargo hold with two giant robots with scary swords
We open a door to a large room with a strange mist and alarms going off so we send Stevus in to check it out
Bram and Stevus DO NOT get along
Tazlin tries to walk past the giant robots to the door behind them which seems to bring them to life but they back off as we back off
Bram turns invisible and tries to sneak past them but it doesn't seem to work
Neif steps into the etheral plane to sneak past the robots which works but theres an even bigger robot in the next room that does notice him and sets off alarms. He explores the rest of the ship from the etheral plane
Tazlin tries to go through the radiation room to open the large door from the other side but it seems locked from both side
Sirens continue to sound throughout the ship while we consider taking a short rest. Also there might be a sick bay that Neif passed through
