Episode 27: So It Is Heard

* We start this session right into combat with Deathcrawl as Godfrey casts Hunger of Hadar on him - Desdemona uses one of her abilities to give us all +10 to initiative and we all manage to go before Deathcrawl does.
*Running around the platform, slipping and sliding in the slime, Deathcrawl almost drops Vahlka.
*Deathcrawl banishes Lucius despite Vahl's attempt to counterspell him. 
*Lucius finds himself in a very wet humid jungle with a blood red sky. In the distance he sees a single very large black dragon with one eye -- Crow, but is returned to the material plane before anything further can happen.
*Deathcrawl manages to kill Deacon, taking a full melee multiattack on the cleric and causing him to fail enough death saves to die outright.
*Barkley immediately casts revivify on Deacon and is pulled to a shadowy realm where she is met with a massive black wolf who holds a lantern and demands to know why she wishes to bring Deacon back to the dead. Barkley explains that Deacon has done so much to help us since we met him, so much to help so many people. The wolf seems to think this is an acceptable answer and grants the resurrection spell.
*Once alive once more, Deacon heals Vahlka and runs - polymorphing himself into a bird and flying off the platform.
*Deathcrawl is slain by Barkley. A shadowy dark form seems to leech out of the dragon's body and fly away, Vahlka identifies him as a revenant and tells the group that he is almost certainly not done. We do find a fancy looking scroll case with a white rose embellishment.
*We sort of recoup our losses - investigate the treasure hoard, which is cursed in some manner, and decide to retreat upstairs to the top platform to rest for the evening. During the rest, Vahlka and Godfrey figure out how to open the scroll, which had notes from Snow. (See DOCUMENTS!)
