PCs (lvl 15): Alexander, Broch, Levarion, Tarlyn, Yincan
The party faces marauding grimlocks and a mostrous neothelid, an alien creature of tremendous power. Even though Tarlyn is swallowed by the monster, the PCs manage to destroy all opposition without any losses.
The party travels through the city of R'lyeh, enduring the maddening geometries and evil influences of the place. Guided by Alexander and his connection to Strahd, they arrive at an illithid sanctum.
There they find Strahd kept prisoner in a mind-flayer brain-pool. But it is not the illithid that hold the party's advance, as the aberrant creature lie dead and scattered all about. A band of star spawns has invaded the place, believing to be the true chosen of the Great Old One.
Battle is joined, and during the confrontation Alexander manages to free Strahd. The vampire lord owns the platinum coin of Shadowthrone, which he uses to summon a portal to "Death", whatever that may mean. The star spawns are annihilated by this magic.
Strahd gives the coin to the party, and tells them that the portal will indeed bring them to a plane of death, but that it is also the next step in their journey. One by one the PCs enter the portal. Alexander says his farewell to his former master. Strahd will return to Barovia, but hints at the fact that he also has some open scores to settle with Shadowthrone. Havng earned one more ally in their fight against the God of Death, Alexander enters the portal.
