Spent twenty days waiting for the effects from the aboleth to fade away. In a convoluted series of events, the party meets Extermiton, an Ulitharid. It gathered their dead bodies and trapped them in Alterdeep, a weird timey-wimey wibbly wobbly The Matrix-style other dimension.

The party agrees that nothing is real, but they will kill the Gith on level 17 when they reach a suitable level.

Mind Flayer Costume
Closer inspection reveals that the mind flayer is a featureless wooden mannequin dressed in a convincing mind flayer costume, complete with black robe, cowl, and rubber mask. A Medium character who wears the costume can make Charisma (Deception) checks to impersonate a mind flayer. Such checks are made with advantage if the costume is viewed in poor lighting or from more than 15 feet away. A character who wears the mask has disadvantage on Wisdom (Perception) checks. A character who wears the robe and cowl has disadvantage on Dexterity (Stealth) checks. The robe and cowl can’t be worn over heavy armor.

After talking to Lady Ironbloodeye she stated that she had lost the dagger of blindsight but wouldn't give us any hints about what happened. To foster friendship, we undertook a herculean task for her and learned to my great dismay that star golems are similar to iron golems. They recover from fire spells and unlike normal golems that one could teleport. After we destroyed it, it returned to an extra dimensional space and will probably reappear should we pass that way again after a reset period. Lady Ironbloodbutteye congratulated us and I gave her a big hug of friendship as is the way of the people. I think she likes me. (she has many magic daggers at this point we are unsure if she's lying about losing the dagger, but we don't know how the real dagger appears. She didn't react when Sylas' minion danced in front of her while invisible so either she has a good poker face, she liked the dancing, or she really did lose it.
The door to the deeper part of the area required the hand of a king to touch it. Sylas transformed himself as what he assumed was the quintessential dwarf king and rubbed his hands on the door. The door returned the favor summoning a massive magic hand to crush Sylas. We eventually took a back route to get to the real King's tomb bypassing several fake tombs and dastardly traps. The last room had some demons trapped in statues that some of our party members freed. One bonded with Navarra and after a counterspell battle with Frankie and Sylas (resulting in poor Frankie getting paralyzed) the demon gave us entry to the true tomb. Then it promptly released its brethren and betrayed us. It is such a shame to have to depose of possible allies. Oh well. We obtained the King's shield and adamantine pickaxe and returned handily to the magically locked door. Hopefully the king will give us a hand in opening it.
Note: Poor Frankie seems every time I've traveled with her she's been paralyzed or stunned or almost killed.
