 Harlan instructs the captain of to set course for Zorander Isle but is informed that the ship does not have enough supplies to reach the remote island. With proper rationing however, the ship should be able to reach [[Koda]] where they might be able to resupply. The entire fleet sets course for Koda.

+Upon arriving at Koda, the Fairhaven refugee fleet is intercepted by the Coast Guard. The city is unprepared to deal with the sudden influx of new migrants, and so all the refugees are interned in temporary camps. For their own safety, and the safety of Koda citizens, all refugees are disarmed, and all their possessions are confiscated. Harlan tries to explain the importance of their mission to the authorities, and show them the [[Messenger Ring]] but the guards either don't speak Common, or don't care.

 At night, [[Bruce]] shows up outside Zorry's window. She lets him in, and he reports that he has found a potential entrance to the lost Dwarf Fortress.
-In the morning Harlan and Takklinn are attacked by a hired assassin posing as a room service. The heroes manage to capture the assassin alive and interrogate him. He reveals he is a member of secretive organization known as [[The Crows]] which was contracted by an undisclosed party. He was instructed to leave "two knives" in the room after performing his task, so it is easy to guess who was behind it. The services of this particular assassin guild don't come cheep, and [[Two Knives Tim]] must have spent a small fortune to set it up. The assassin warns the heroes that even though they have thwarted him, the guild will keep sending more killers after them until the job is done, and that since inception they have never failed to fulfill a contract once paid.

 The protagonists relieve the assassin from his possessions which include 10 vials of [[Black Poison]], 2 vials of [[Vultures Kiss]], {{compendium|Potion of Poison}} and a roll of golden [[Crowbux]] (an ornate currency used by the guild). Takklinn then asks the rest of the party leave the room, while he kills the assassin, and shoves the body through a window into an empty alley.

 The heroes wash up and eat dinner in shame. Urist explains how he became a prisoner of [[Nadarr]] while exploring a tapestry portal that has belonged to his high born clan. He is not entirely sure whether or not he has returned to his home plane, or another plane entirely because Nadarr has kept him alive for hundreds of years and the outside world would have changed to the point he would not be able to recognize it. He decides to stay at the mansion for the time being.

 The heroes arrive at the mansion and have dinner with [[Samuel Summers]] and [[Arielle]]. They share their findings at [[Pearltown]] and the detail's of Prince's speech. Samuel is saddened by [[Senjack]]'s death, but is not worried about the mindflyer and his undead legions. He reveals that small groups of walking dead have been converging on the location of the mansion long before Senjack's disappearance, but they are never able to navigate the illusion pattern. Even if they did, the Ents and the garden gnome provide a good defence. Also, [[Bruce]] now talks for some reason and its awful.
-Arielle notices the [[Purge Blade]] and does magic to it, reforging it into the twin short swords [[Arbiter]] and [[Redeemer]]. She uses the remaining bits to modify the [[Magical Sickle]] to allow it to transform into [[Glaive of Sylvannus]].

 They follow the ghost to a gate chamber, with a central building. They find a hidden switch that opens the door to an engine room from where the ancient machinery that opens the giant gate can be restarted. Inside they find the body of the girl's father, who appears to have hung himself. With the girl's permission Takklinn takes the ancient [[Ancient Dwarf Armor]] and the ornate [[Ancient Dwarf Hammer]].
-Zorry finds an [[Icky Ring]], and upon putting it on and reading it's engraved description she inadvertently summons [[Icky]] an {{compendium|Imp}} who served [[Flint Slate]]. The fiend is interested in making a Faustian deal with Zorry and promises to return with appropriate paperwork in two weeks.

 The heroes flip the main switch, and watch the intricate Dwarven machinery come back to life. The incandescent lights flicker back to life, and ventilation turbines start spinning powered by hot magma drawn directly from the heart of the mountain. The heroes proceed to open the huge stone gate that has been sealed for centuries.

 When asked about walls that have been potentially breached from the outside by human diggers long after the fortress fell, she does recall one such spot several levels down. The heroes think that this might be the tomb that [[Richard Oddenheim]] was looking for and resolve to investigate it.

 The heroes descend down a stairway down to the lower floor. At the entrance they find a map that shows the layout of the floor, which turns out to be huge, compared to the last section they visited. This floor is a sprawling underground city in its own right. It has commercial districts, residential buildings as well as parks and plazas. The ceilings are tall enough to allow for two or even three floor buildings and towers. The entire floor is adequately lit by various light emitting machines, and lava conduits.
-Around the walls one can see [[Dwarven Music Box]]es which play pleasing melodies. They are similar to the one depicted in the blueprint found by Bilbido. He takes some time to study these devices in operation to help him one day construct a copy.

 The heroes take some time to explore the houses they pass by and find some valuables. They eventually find a plaza that has been set up as a zoo of sorts. It has multiple pedestals with reinforced cages, most of which are empty. Those must have housed various animals or captured beasts, but most of those have died long ago, and their remains either turned to dust, or have been removed and consumed by the Wererat denizens of the fortress.
