===The Island===
Grimes and Kel William Marshal are on an island in the Western Canal in the Shadow Plane, in search for a portal home. They encounter an elf. The elf introducing himself as Yeane (sp). He says he is here to lead the pair home in common.
Grimes and William help Yeane to carry a dead demon body inland on the island. The party reach a crevice in the craggy wall. At the wall is 2 Elven Clerics and 1 other elven archer. The Elf says they know both William and Grimes by name and they are to take them back to the real world. The portal will lead to the real world to the same island, but in the real world the island has been destroyed by Scoria, so they have to wait for night time to use the portal.
While waiting the portal Grimes uses the gem of true seeing and sees the elves are real. Midoli the elf has cooked some elven bread and shares it with Grimes and William. They are told the date is 31 December 1512.
Eventually it is nightfall and the group go though the portal. They appear in the real world.
===13st December 1512===
The island is indeed charred and destroyed, in the distance is a sunset. Grimes and WIlliam are in awe of being in the real world.
The elves cast water walking on the party. They leave the island and walk across the cannal into Sylvas. The walk is several miles before they reach land. They can see the land has been burnt by Scoria here as well.
The party are led into Lothtrin to a large redwood tree and are let inside the house. The demon body is laid to rest on a table. More elves arrives and congratulate the other elves for completing the mission. The elves says they will put the demon body to rest so their soul can pass on.
The Elven Cleric of Matrigal says she was sent the mission to retrieve the party from the Shadow Plane by Matrigal. 
Afterwards the Elves offer to take the party where they want. Horses will be made available. The party are treated to hot baths and beds to rest in.
Grimes shaves back his beard back into his mutton chops. William trims his bears and finds some odd grows under his jaw. An elf says they can try to trim them off and they might not grow back. Kel William tells the Elves about the Shadow Demons. An elf uses a memory read to see the event.
The Cleric casts a spell on William and then the Shadow Demon is removed from him. The elves slay the demon. The Elves then deal with the Demon inside of Grimes. Grimes is told it is a mercy, it allows the Shadow Demon souls to go to Felumbra.
The party rest for the night in beds without armor. The two can't sleep, so have wine until dawn at the top of the tree.
