Notes
Level 22: Shadowdusk Hold, Sublevel two. D-con and Zayeus stay in the Study to continue searching through the books. Dani, Geran, Tigre, and Orpollo continue to clear the level. In the remaining unexplored room, we are ambushed by a half dozen *death slaadi* but dispatch them, though we take some wounds. Proceeding to Sublevel three, we encounter a *gargantua* set as a guard, but Geran talks our way past. Exploring the western wing of this level, we destroy a balhannoth and find a fine tapestry of long-ago Waterdeep, which Dani chooses to keep for her rooms at The Yawning Portal. At the end of the hall, we discover a room with 4 pillars that radiate magic from runes of abjuration. Amongst the pillars is a *blue dracolich* that strikes Dani repeatedly with lightning breath while Geran and Orpollo try to puzzle out why most of our attacks seem to be ineffective against the undead terror. Orpollo works out that the runes are absorbing all but the strongest strikes from Tigre and we set to destroying the pillars in moments. Though Dani continues to take injuries from the dracolich, it is shattered eventually... though we worry it will reanimate in a few days. The room the darcolich guarded was the Shadowdusk family vault and it holds thousands of coins and several precious gems. *Found Potion of Cloud Giant Strength*
