Chronicle - The Rescue of Yagitamo

To Limbo

Being back on the plains of Golgorath, a weaker mind might have thought we had dreamed our trip to Asgard, but there were clear signs that things had changed since we left. Burn marks showed where the dragolich, Rantor, had scorched the earth, and a number of bodies were visible. We sent a message to Si-Lung regarding Ollyhydra's dislike of Milai, suspecting that Inwe had blamed Milai for the acts of the Drow and wanting to explain that we were not her enemy. We then set off on another journey through the planes, starting once more with Asgard, as that was close to Limbo.

I took us there, this time leaving Aras and Bavarik to tell their tales of the Gods amongst their people, and Lanzi set about using his map and compass to locate a gate to Limbo. We first entered onto the Astral and then started moving rapidly, following Lanzi's lead. We were to be interrupted, though, as we came across some dragon-like beasts with Gith mounted upon them; they seemed to be engaging something on the far side of their number, but the rearmost quickly turned their attention to us.

There was a mental assault on Milai and Lanzi, as four of the winged creatures, each with two Gith upon them, approached at speed. I let off a fireball from the mace, as Milai absorbed dweomer that came back at us. Magic missiles got through, but failed to hurt me. What was painful, though, was the creatures' fiery breath, and it was clear that we would have to target them before the Gith. Milai hasted herself and attacked, slaying one of the creatures by hacking at its head until it was separated from the neck. The body continued some way before the Gith managed to separate themselves and head back towards us. Lanzi sent a familiar ray at another of them, and to everyone's surprise he successfully disintegrated the beast, leaving two Gith floating in a cloud of dust.
