Excerpt from a post by ETANNIDOMHNAILL on 6/15/11
When Nilandia did wake on the evening of June 9, she struggled to tell Delcian, Jesphian, Myke and Jaired what had happened. As she spoke, a voice entered her mind, calling her mindflayer and hinting about taking away her abilities. She replied that her ability was a part of her and who she is.
At that point, she felt a sharp pain in her mind and slipped back into unconsciousness. She tried to fight back to consciousness as the others tried to wake her. Jesphian tried reaching to her mentally, only to have his head cut off by someone in the shadows. Nilandia herself had her skull sliced open and her brain removed by a Sheruvian assassin, who crowed about having killed the mindflayer and then proclaimed that the Landing would now be taken. Both Nilandia and Jesphian were restored to life and taken to the Keep.
An attack of Sheruvians began on the Landing. The defenders encountered a wounded adventurer outside the north gate, who told them of an idol within Darkstone, and they set off to go find it. Soon after, Nilandia was kidnapped by a tentacle-covered nightmare, taken to the great hall in Darkstone and bound in place. When she asked what they wanted with her, she was told simply that she meddles. A pair of Sheruvians dragged the idol in to protect it, and soon a priest appeared. Before the priest could do anything, however, the group in Darkstone arrived, killed the priest and destroyed the idol.
Once the idol was destroyed, the occupation of Darkstone ended, and Khlat raffled off some items found in the looting.
