Session 93

The party continues through the False Lair in search of Hedemora and Sors' body. They succeed at one of those tasks. 
== Summary ==
Carden's little hidey camp overlooks the rest of the lair. There is a large crater, with three long stone bridges reaching out toward a stone pillar similar to a railroad spike in the center of the crater. Dragons in various stages of undeath are living in the area. On the far side is a stone door emblazened with runes and no posted guards. The party decides to backtrack toward one of the bridges, picking up cultist uniforms along the way, including a helmet for Esteem and Sors. As they head out on their mission, Belle notices something large moving past the window, and the party is concerned that they were being listened to. They decide to risk going with their plan anyway, as Pronza and the others had cleared a path that direction. 
As they fly beneath the bridge, something large lands on it above them. The party halts, waiting for it to hopefully pass. As they consider moving forward, the bridge collapses on top of them, Anghadym and stone falling atop the party. A skill challenge begins. The party maneuvers away as best they can, until Kiono successfully casts Banishment on Anghadym. Using their minute of breathing room, they find the correct door for their key and slip inside. Inside are two doors and a hallway. Behind one door they find gear, and they updgrade their disguises. They continue through the hallway into an octagonal room. There are undead birds which pay them no mind. They listen at each of the doors, hearing shuffling and the occasional cough at the south door, deep belly laughs and thumping to the west, and nothing to the east. East, they find a set of stairs leading down. They continue down several more hallways and stairs before finding a dead end with a door to the east and south. IDK we keep going and find a bedroom, an old corpse pinned to the bed, the symbol of Quraura split by a dragonbone sword. 
They continue to the south, and the hallway opens into a chamber which is frigged freezing. On the far side is a black stone font filled with clear water. Runes ring the font, and on each wall hangs a tapestry bearing the symbol of Nox, a bone-white dragon skull with a single glowing eye. They hear a voice speak in draconic saying, "the black blood of Nox, be anointed and walk unhindered." After much debate, the party touches the water in the fountain twice, gaining the effects of the bane spell, then later the bless spell and the chill lessens. They continue on and reach a hallway with six alcoves containing six suits of armor. The party carefully proceeds down the hallway to the far door, unhindered by opposing forces. 
The next room is colder and filled with magical darkness which cannot be seen through. Kiono sends her familiar through to scope it out; it sees an alchemical lab on the other side before fleeing. The party steps through the wall of darkness into a portion of Hedemora's laboratory. The room seems to be filled with general experiments, ingredients and skulls sitting on tables. There are arcane implements stored on the wall, cabinets scattered around the room, a Science Sink, and other fitting elements. The far wall has another wall of darkness, and to the west, toward the center of the island, is an even thicker wall of darkness. Sors feels a pull toward the southern wall. They proceed through the southern darkness, down a grand staircase, and into a large, more specific lab. There is a tall cylindrical tank is on the far wall, a tiefling, an older Sors clad in black, floating in it. She appears to be mostly reconstructed, Belle noting that the body has been previously horribly brutalized. Sors touches the glass, and her body immediately disperses into a million points of light, rejoining her body. The fluid within drains, spilling across the floor, and the glass lifts away. Sors slumps to the ground, unconscious, and Teer and Belle rush forward. She wakes in Teer's arms.
