1492 DR 27 Uktar (The Rotting)
General Summary
Leaving Elturel's High Hall through a secret tunnel, we made our way to the Grand Cemetery without incident in search of Ulder Ravengard.
Within the cemetery, we encountered an undead sentinel called Gideon Lightward. Gideon confirmed seeing Ravengard, revealing he had allowed Ravengard to enter the ossuary. However, since then demons have been seen exiting the ossuary, leading Gideon to conclude Ravengard was in league with demons. Dallon was able to convince Gideon we were pursuing Ravengard, and we too were allowed entry.
We destroyed a shadowy threat and inspected the remains of stained glass windows depicting Lathander and Torm above the ossuary. Descending into the ossuary, Dallon tracked footprints from a preparatory chamber deep into the vaults, where we eventually found an incapacitated Ravengard menaced by demonic minotaur skeletons, bulezau demons, and a towering goristro demon. The bulezaus and skeletons were easily destroyed, but the goristro proved more formidable. Although nearly killed by the monstrosity, Xander managed to stun the beast after being revived by Harad. With the goristro unable to strike back, the entire party unleashed its power on the demon, with Harad dealing a formidable divine smite and Enkidu delivering the killing blow with his infectious fury.
