5th moon, 15th day, year 4554
The brothers have once again left Menzo and headed out to the temple in the forest to activate the next symbol, the bronze symbol.
A horned devil appears in a puff of smoke. "Warlord Zakarias has in his possession a magical pendant crafted from the smallest scale of one of the great bronze dragons. Retrieve the pendant and bring it back to the altar in Menzo".
A portal opens.
"If you wish, this portal is a short-cut and will deposit you much closer to Durgarth Keep, where Warlord Zakarias has his home"
The brothers step through and find themselves outside Blackwell, near Durgarth Keep. After some deliberation, they decide against carpet-bombing the place with spells from afar, and instead sneak in at night.

A bit after midnight, the T'orghs sneak up to the keep, levitate up top the main tower, and Nalfein suggests the guard that he should take them to his leader. They are led down the stairs to the first floor, where the guard knocks on the door, telling his leader he has guests. Nalfein panics and kills the guard when the leader doesn't open the door immediately and starts kicking down the door. Belos fills the staircase with noxious fumes, and as Nalfein beats down the door, he finds the human warrior halfequiped and alone but for a serving wench in bed. The fight start, and it turns out the wench is a succubus. Things are not looking well for the brothers, especially when a two-headed troll is released down in the courtyard and comes charging up the stairs. Luckily for the brothers, the troll is affected by the spell and they can keep focus on the warlord and the demon. They manage to kill the warlord, but the succubus is a hard one, especially because Jeffrey can not affect her with his sword and she seems to ignore every single spell thrown at her. Fortunately, Nalfein has Asmodeus on his side, and his Slay Living spell utterly destroys her, while Jeffrey takes care of the troll. As they succeed in killing the opposition, guards and a fool appear. Nalfein closes off access with a wall of fire, and while the wall is up, the brothers find a magical chest with the necklace, and dimension door their way out of the keep.
The brothers move out and south, heading back towards Menzo.
Around daybreak, the brothers feel someone is scrying on them. When Belos notices it, he hears a voice in his head. Give me back my medallion, and I will let you live.

5th moon, 21st day, year 4554
After days of moving invisible at night, and sleeping in their magical cottage during the day, the players wake up one morning, and as Nalfein opens the door, he finds a note under a stone. Last chance. Leave the medallion and you will live. Nalfein steps out, and they find themselves facing a gargantuan bronze dragon. A few seconds later, the dragon breathes, and Belos is dead and the dragon says. Are you sure you do not wish to yield me the pendant, dark elf? Nalfein hands the pendant to the dragon, and heals Belos as soon as the dragon is gone.
After talking things over, the brothers decide to return to Menzo to research a bit, then head back to the Underdark and empty the dragon lair they know should be without an owner.
