The adventurers moved their way through Castle Rivenroar clearing out the last of the damnable monsters. Eventually, they discovered a secret staircase that lead up to Sinruth's chambers. As they entered, it was clear that he was just finishing up a ritual. He mocked the intrepid explorers for being too late, and that he had already sacrificed the rest of the living prisoners on a ceremonial altar.

The team came together as one and began to defeat their foe. However, as the ritual seemed to take effect, Sinruth fell to a knee. Before their eyes, huge bat-like wings sprouted from his back and he grew by 1 size (becoming a Large enemy). He seemed much stronger and could take blows with a laugh. He mocked the team again, and they all fell one by one. But the next thing they knew, they awoke in the Shadowfell.

Gwen had experience in the Shadowfell, and lead the explorers through the blank gray mists until they found a Temple of the Raven Queen (the good god of death). Inside the Temple they met the Angel of Prophecy, who informed them that 9 long years had passed since they were killed by Sinruth. In that time, his power had risen exponentially. They regretted to inform the group that Sinruth was now at the brink of Godhood. All the other gods didn't want Sinruth becoming an immortal, and begged our adventurers to lend their help.

Sinruth got his power from a ritual he found in a Temple of Tiamat. The gods have decided to send the team back in time to stop the building of the temple so Sinruth can never find the ritual inside. The group happily agreed, especially after finding out that all have a spark of divinity inside them waiting to be ignited. With a clap of his hands, the group appeared back in Castle Rivenroar sometime in the past. It was bustling with activity, and they met Mirruth von Urdtcht. He didn't have any idea about a Temple of Tiamat and told them to go ask Bombadur Silvervein, an absurdly old Dwarf Artificer in Forgehome - a big Dwarven city nearby.

The adventurers got into a fight with some gnolls along the way but soon made their way to Hammerfist.

After arriving in this fine town, they soon got into a fight at the Bloody Anus, a wicked fun gay club in Hammerfist, and eventually found Bombadur. He felt that a Temple of Tiamat would only be founded by aberrant creatures from the Far Realm. He recalled that there was a portal to the Far Realm that was sealed off eons ago in a Lost Labyrinth deep in the Underdark. He suggested that their first stop should be Forgehome, a huge Dwarven mining city deep beneath the earth.

So, off they went, into the Underdark via a malfunctioned teleportion elixir. Instead of appearing in Forgehome as Bombadur expected, they appeared lost in the Underdark. Bombadur thinks he can lead the way to Forgehome and so the team began to head that way. One attack by a Dire Bear later, they were well on their way!
