We had strayed far from our initial quest to help that merchant with his leprechaun problem. I am surprised that my more condensed party members have been so adaptable.
Oisin De Brun and his servants were found in a magical mirror which was destroyed, freeing them. Osin had found a remedy to free me from the medusa's spell by covering my petrified body in her blood. It was a relief the creature was slain quickly or I fear we would have all been turned to statues. Even including almost dissolving in the sea before I came to the mainland, the state of my body being turned solid was the most unnatural.
Having freed ourselves from the prison, then the mirror and stone we found ourselves still trapped in the fortress with the door seeming to have disappeared before we could. Not just the door but the passageway itself had vanished. If it were just the door missing it would not have been a problem. We exhausted every effort to solve the mystery of the missing portal. But when we could hear the chamberlain and his guards closing in on us we made a speedy escape by bailing out of one of the windows with a rope, the whole party, Oisin , and staff included. There were some falling injuries including the young lord but we had all survived the Fortress De Brun.
Notes:
1: Report Lich to the Guild
2: teach party members what a rope is and how it works (some party members disregarded it while egressing)
3: Barron Danore De Brun missing
4: 2 DeBrun servants east side of second story, Fortress DeBrun PETRIFIED
5: report completion of A Peddlers Plea
