 These stairs seem endless. Why did it have to be stairs. Why stairs? I might look in shape but secretly im a fat kid, wheezing on these stairs. Plus, pretty sure Melino fell in love with a mushroom man.

 Our new adventure is under way. We were asked to deal with a creature that has been destroying a really long staircase by a very powerful lady. After Lulu pantsed me, we were on our way. After a while, Lulu said she needed food, so Melino and Nessa went through one of the doors while Lulu and I stayed behind and kept the door open. After they returned with food and Lulu had her fill, we continued on. We encountered a huge spider/rat thing with a whole swarm of mini ones, but with one shout and a few eldritch blasts, they were dealt with. Praise the balance.

DM Entry: Meanwhile back in Sigil...

A jingle announces Shemeshka as she enters Ramander's tiny shop. Ramander only briefly takes notice of his visitor but immediately returns to his Tome of Portals. A few dozen loose leaves of notes litter his desk all around the open Tome as he carefully transfers notes from leaf to book.

"Any significant changes in your portal maps?" Shemeshka asks as she takes a guest seat. Ramander keeps what could arguably be the most up to date and accurate map of portals in Sigil. An impressive feat, Shemeshka thinks, that's why everyone calls him the Portal Master.

"For every new one we've found, we've also lost two more," he responds without looking up.

A strange sound comes from the back room. "Where's your brother? Is he back there?" Shemeshka wanders out loud.

Ramander doesn't take his eyes off his notes, one finger on a loose leaf, another finger in the Tome. "Yes I told him to remain there while I work on this."

Again the strange noise, like ripping drapes perhaps. "Well what in all the Nine Hells is he doing back there?"

"I haven't a clue," he responds, again not taking his eyes from his notes.

"What did you program that dead thing to do, Ramander?" she asks as she cranes her neck to look down the hall.

"Stay. Kneel. The usual. Why do you ask?" He finally pauses and looks up at Shemeshka just in time for the ripping noise again.

Shekeshka and Ramander both stand simultaneously as Shemeshka asks, "When's the last time you checked on him?" They both make their way down the narrow hallway to the back room.

As they enter the room, they see Ramander's undead brother laying motionless on the floor, and again the loud ripping noise. They both turn their gazes to the other side of the room, the source of the noise. 

Ramander: "What the hell are you doing...!?"

Shemeshka: "No....no....NO!" At this she begins screaming in abject horror as she stumbles backing out of the room. As she loses sight of Ramander she can hear a scuffle break out. At this, Shemeshka panics as she turns and runs out the front door, tears swell up in her eyes making it hard to see, but she doesn't take notice, she just keeps running and screaming, and once in a while she looks back over her shoulder.

Squaring the Circle: Lulu, human bard 6: Entry 2

So. Guess what happens when I arrange an exclusive, hands-on meeting with the girls and you repay me with a ticket to devil jail? Go ahead, guess, because I haven't decided yet, but it's probably gonna be deeply ironic. No, not smothering. Obviously. Whatever I do, it's not supposed to be fun for him. No, I won't kill him. Probably.

Anyways, we set free a big ugly animal from the devil zoo, or something like that. I wasn't really payin' attention.

 I'm trying to contain my excitement as I write this. We saved the Maldure and we stayed alive. I really did not think we would be alive after this. I'm not sure what to do now. Maybe I'll start a flower business. I could ask Noname to be my husband??? I could use one. He talks a bit more tha Udrol but I can make it work. I'll ask Lakshmi later what he thinks. I wonder if Shameshka is back, I'd like to ask her about William.

 Well, Noname abandoned us for freedom. He asked the maeldur to teleport us all to somewhere safe but it only sent him. Lulu asked the same and got sent to freedom but they took the orb with them. Thankfully with powerful wishing the maeldur is telepathic and was able to send me to the dungeon as well. Melano ended up staying behind and told us that the maeldur fell into the river styx and disappeared but at least hes free now. Turns out, there Was a way back to sigil through the dungeon and the candle stick store heffer just didnt tell us. Probably thought we’d die in the dungeon but ohwell. We’re back in sigil now figuring out our next move.

 This group will be the death of me. They are so chaotic, but somehow get the mission done. Perhaps it’s the balance! That’s it! The balance is telling me to not try and control it for it knows best. That’s why our last battle was so difficult. In the end, it all worked out! I can’t wait for our next adventure.

DM Entry: Ramander explains the Revival of William

Ramander: We (Shemeshka and I) had left Sigil secretly with the body of William. 

Our original destination was Lunia, the 1st mountain of Celestia. Once there, we met with some archons and aasimon, specifically those of a band of the Lunar Choir of Militant Righteousness. The celestials agreed to help raise William. But after several attempts, we all determined that the gods of Celestia just weren't about to grant a revive spell for a demon, even for one such as William.

So from there we all headed out to the Outlands near Plaque-Mort, gate town to the Abyss. We secured a building there and again tried to revive William. 

During the ritual, Tapheon teleported into the room with some demon underlings along with a faux William animated zombie. Combat immediately broke out.

Shemeshka and some of the choir boys continued the ritual.

During combat, Thralhavoc and his shadow demon thralls teleported into the room and demanded the body of Apocaloxon Loggonon (aka William). And of course they entered the battle also.

At this time one of the gods of the Abyss, specifically Eshebala (goddess of foxwomen and wolfweres), finally granted the revival spell whereupon William inhaled deeply and stood upon his own feet.

Tapheon took the opportunity and picked up the newly revived William and attempted to teleport away.

But his teleportation didn't work.

Teleporting had been somehow blocked for everyone.

In the brief confusion, Shemeshka joined the grapple with Tapheon. Faux William then also entered the grapple to assist Tapheon. Finally the celestial choir boys managed to knock everyone in the grapple unconscious with some celestial hymn, whereupon all the grapplers spilled unmoving onto the floor.

All combatants ceased their fighting for a moment.

Those that had been knocked out quickly regained consciousness and now no one knew which one was the real William, so well had the faux William been disguised.

Shemeshka asked them both a question only the real William should know. One of the Williams responded immediately, whereupon the celestials made quick work of the other William tearing him into pieces.

Thralhavoc in turn destroyed Tapheon (his body being drained of both life and color), after which Thralhavoc turned toward William, saying, "Long have I sought a way to enter the City of Doors, but was blocked by an entity much stronger than myself every time. You belong to the Abyss. It was long ago prophesied that you'd be a key element in the final battle. You are supposed to be how we win the Blood War and the Apocalypse. Your destructive power will one day rival the gods themselves. Come with me now or I'll destroy you where you stand."

William stubbornly and bravely refused, facing off with that demon lord known as the Shadowmaster. 

The Lunar choir boys began a low key hymn for some damn reason.

[Shemeshka: "It was one of their hymns of calming, Ramander."]

[Ramander responds with a long glare at Shemeshka and then rolls his eyes.]

Anyway, in response, Thralhavoc reared back to strike William.

But William unflinchingly offered no resistance, his arms presented with open palms, saying, "I'd rather be dead than to be forced against my will."

The entire room pulsed with the anger of Thralhavoc, who did not follow through with his attack. "Don't ever let me find you alone outside the Cage, Apocaloxon Loggonon." Thralhavoc then left the building along with his shadow demon minions, immensely frustrated and full of hate, destroying everyone and everything in the street as they made their way out of town (sans teleport).

Shemeshka then rushed into the arms of William.

I suggested that we could celebrate later once we were safely back in the Cage. So the celeatials accompanied us back to Sigil, after which they returned to Mt Celestia.
