Plot summary:
Just a normal day in the guild hall, what could go wrong? Drinks in hand, Wing, Rook and Zero have been discussing a Soul Orb of one of Rook's friends. But none of them know much about it, so they decide that they will seek out someone who might be able to help them, Simmond the Kind. However upon reaching his room they find the room empty with scorch marks on the wall and the bed. Marks that are normally left behind by a portal. Zero, using his ability to summon a celestial manages to summon Aaron, Simmond's old boyfriend turned god.
Turns out Aaron has been worried about Simmond and can't seem to find him either. However Wing, with a bit of help from Aaron learns that Simmond is trapped in the Plane of Fire! Chained to an altar of sorts, it seemed as though he might be sacrificed. So the party rush to Nulisag and get a plane shift spell loaded up. Aaron grants them protection from the fire in the form of small blue stone necklaces. Then our three adventurers and Nugget rush into the fire plane to see what has become of their guildmate.
Upon arrival they find themselves in a strange town, a voluptuous succubus there to greet them. She latches on to Rook but upon the offer of staying with her and dying of old age, Rook snaps out of any infatuation. That is not the death that Rook is looking for. Then our heroes take to the sky on the back of Nugget and a summoned giant bird, tracking Simmond down.
They find themselves above a fortress inhabited by surprisingly polite skeleton people and they learn from the people that there is an area nearby that they don't dare venture. However Wing's tracking tells them that Simmond is in this same place. Using some invisibility and athletics, they make their way down to the altar, only to be faced by an antlered god sucking out Simmond's life force.
The heroes sprung into action only to find out that they were horribly outmatched! However, when all hope seemed lost, Aaron's powers in the necklaces he had granted erupts through our adventurers. The power of a god flowed through them; Nugget becoming a powered up dragon, and Zero's crystal deer becoming a crystal dragon. Rook's friend Helmer leaves his soul orb and stands alongside his old friend. Unfortunately the antlered demon turned into a massive hulking form one hundred times as tall as them. But the heroes and their companions were strong as the gods and they were able to go toe to toe with the demon!
Rook, beside himself with happiness at being able to fight alongside his old friend, determined that there was only one way to finish off the fight. Teaming up with his old dwarf companion, he exploded in a ball of radiant light and fire and exploded the head off of the gigantic beast, sacrificing himself for his teammates.
Wing and Zero, picked up the literal pieces left of Rook and managed to save Simmond from the altar. They make their way back into our realm and into the guild hall safe and sound.
