Session 78

Having finally located Concludion and Kitano within Votuum's Spiral, the party attempts to finish their rescue and return them to safety. 
== Summary ==
Uncertain if they were simply fighting for survival or to avenge Sors, Teer and Ephemera climbed onto the back of the giant spider queen before them, and began to lay into it. After a useful stun by Teer, they were able to defeat it, escaping to safety as more spiders emerged from the darkness. They climbed all over the corpse of the spider queen, consuming it until there was nothing left, then left again. 
The spiders apparently gone, Teer and Ephemera broke open the chest, releasing its occupants. The group made their way back up the spiders webs and out of the mines, returning at last to the library. Unwilling to continue to explore the place, they prepare to depart. Aedon said they would remain, as they were learning a great deal from the books there. Outside, Kiono took the next hour to locate and align the leyline nexus in the area. Ephemera checked on Kitano during this time, as he appeared to be in pain, clutching his abdomen. He refused any inquiries into his health, nor was he willing to share what he had been researching or whether or not he had been successful. 
Her task complete, Kiono teleported the group to the Fortune Theatre in Wolis. Not wishing to disturb the Burnetts at such a late hour, they found an inn nearby. After pestering him some more, Concludion explained that Kitano had rescued him from a particularly nasty attack by the spider queen, but had himself been injured in the process. The injury had been made worse when spiders in the chest had hatched and sought out the wound. Ephemera requested the innkeeper call a doctor for them in the morning. 
The doctor was indeed called and treated Kitano as the rest of the party had breakfast. A mail tortle arrived with a letter to Teer from Keera Andromeda requesting the party's help testing something. Thinking this to be perhaps more relaxing than their other immediate plans, they decided to head to Alibrook next. Concludion and Kitano, also intending to head in that direction, opted to travel along with them. The party spent the day recuperating and hiring a carriage to take them to Alibrook.
