Adventurer's Log - 6/1/2012

The Watchmen of Waterdeep found themselves still on the Stone Bridge, attempting to cross to get to the lost peaks.  They eventually succeeded, although they had to disable a large clay construct and a mechanical water trap that threaten to drown them all, in water or blood, depending on the plane.  The final section of the bridge was just that, a bridge and the party crossed with no ill effects. 
Once across they stood looking at a trail that headed up the lost peaks.  The feeling of magic was heavy in the air.  They met with a group of Shard-Kai, followers of the Raven Queen.  They learned that Lamsa created the bridge and the other plane was the Shadowfell.  The Shard-Kai were also looking for Lamsa, but for other reasons, and later were slain by Lamsa.  The party learned, however, that Lamsa is a 2000 year old Gold Dragon, who bears the mark of Thulaak.  They found Lamsa at the top of the mountain, beyond an archway marked with magic symbols to prevent scrying.  Lamsa teaches the party that the mark allows Thulaak to see their every move and be prepared.  In fact, Thulaak's army is already assembled outside, as they saw the party movement up the lost peaks.  The only way is to remove the mark.  Lamsa gives the party a scroll and instructs them to take the scroll to Sigil and find Weiss Albom to learn how to remove the mark.  The party finally learns that Thulaak exists in the same space of the mark, and essentially is the mark. 
So the party fills their bag of holding with gold and is also granted the help of a Goliath, a new adventurer!

Out of Game Note - The party was granted 1900 XP for the session.
