Chapter 9
Minoeska
The party starts investigating vampires. They find that a vampire just turned can be bought back to the living if done so quickly. They also discover that to truly kill a vampire one need a mirror, garlic, holy symbol, sunlight and a good old fashion stake through the heart.
Aneirin, with the aid of Eurendur, teleports back to Gindar, his hometown, to mourn his parents and investigate what happened to Elisare. The party in the mean time scryes on Minoeska and see her talking to a female half elf, cloaked and carrying a long sword, in a wooden room. They discuss an undead rising. The party teleports into the room a bit later and investigate a building that seems to be a warehouse. Before able to discover more they have to flee because a large group of vampires appear.
Next they scry on the vampire they faced in Avalon and see him walking in a tomb. The party immediately teleports next to him. Instead of finding a surprised vampire they see a strange mummy standing next to him. The mummy has some kind of small creature inside of him. They are very powerful and start laying waste to the party. Barely able to save their own skins they are able to teleport out. Yet they are severely weakened as the mummy's rot spreads through their bodies. A large portion of the party wealth is needed to secure the Remove Curse and Remove Disease spells to cure them all.
Recovering from the disease they read the wizard's book. It is his journal and describes the dealings with Emmerence Thailone and the hunt for the party. It also describes Minoeska and the others meeting in the nation of Thallia to cast some great spell. It seems to be some kind of very powerful undead summoning spell. To cast it they need four ancient scrolls; a Scroll of Protection versus Law, versus Chaos, versus Good and versus Evil. They already possess three and only need the Law that was in the party's possession until they lost it. The vampires believe that can emulate the scroll somehow and have started the casting. Lastly the book describes five contacts, Fergus Ton in Deanardas; Eareth Dagostar in Terren, a half black dragon wizard; Hawel Iphaniel in Istr, an assassin; Crew Nashakar in Deukalion, a necromancer and lastly Duke Imerand Xasten in Lionsalindal.

Thallia
The party tells everything they now to Eurendur and he immediately teleports them to Lionsalindal in Thallia. There they are to meet Eldar Umarin, a high member of the Silverstars.
As they enter Lionsalindal, their hearts are strangely darkened as if an evil aura is present. This is a strange feeling as Thallia is a nation known for her paladins and righteous orders. Lionsalindal houses many temples to all the known good deities, most of all to Samuel Goldenblade, Deity of the Paladins.
Eurendur secures a meeting with High Prince Ibgarhaz Tlaxartin, ruler of Thallia and a Silverstar. The party tells him of the information they have retrieved. Ibgarhaz is troubled as he tells that there is a great undead problem in Thallia and there is an evil aura darkening the lands that weakens his people. He also recognizes the warehouse the party had seen yet upon investigation it proves empty, all traces of anything interesting removed. The party questions him about Duke Xasten, the fifth person on their list. Ibgarhaz tells them he is a trusted person and the High Priest to Samuel Goldenblade of Thallia, they will need a lot more evidence to confront him.
Meanwhile Aneirin returns from his investigations. His face is pale as he tells a gruesome tale. His parents had not only been brutally murdered in their house, as a final insult they had been turned into zombies. His own paladin order, whose fortress resides near his parents' house had no choice but to destroy them. He swears a great vow of vengeance against Minoeska.
With the return of Aneirin the party is again at full strength and the decide to confront Fergus Ton with their knowledge. They teleport directly into the inn where he worked only to find that someone else had taking over. The party heads to his house were Fergus Ton summons the dreaded mummy to fight the party. Again the mummy proves to powerful and the party flees.
Maxx fearing for his girlfriend Nirieki asks Cyan's mom if she can stay in the tower. Cyan's mom welcomes her with open arms.
