The Backdoor
As the players approach the well lit junction Julian decides that this would be a good time to start a limerick on his lute, playing it loudly as it reverberated throughout the sewers. This resulted in the party being ambushed by surprise from two archers kill-holes. After a quick skirmish killing the hard to get archers the party finds what looks like a main entrance into some sort of hideout.

Julian decides to strike it out on his own and finds a secret entrance on the other side of the sewer's wall down a little while away. The rest of the party reluctantly followed Julian through the secret entrance.

The Hostage & the Illithid
As the party progresses through the secret entrance they find an odd room with a pedestal in the middle of it that looks like it holds an orb. As they continued they opened a large door into a room where They see a beat up Floon being held by a half-orc mage in what seems to be a hall talking to someone above them on a pulpit. The party busts in and Gooz & Choo-Cha attack the mage downing him immediately. As the party enters they can see that the half-orc was talking to a Mindflayer.

The Mindflayer turns invisible and seemingly flees. The party hears a crack coming from the room they just came from, the party opens back up the room to discover a portal leading to somewhere unknown. The party runs through the portal while carrying Floon.
