        A small group of drow raiders is searching through these rooms when the PCs arrive. These drow have resisted the effects of the mind fog, but remain under Remi Ehzla's charm. They attack the party on sight. If they gain surprise, they use their actions to outline their enemies with faerie fire before closing in for the kill.

      - Can have more resurrections if battle too easy. Also, hold off to not have everything in first round.

      - Greta:
        insistent that the PCs subdue rather than destroy her wayward body. If Sten is still alive, he can use the staff from the Terrace (area 6) to restore her mind to its rightful home.

      - When slain, bursts through the shaman's skull and becomes an intellect devourer

      - A clutch of intellect devourers has chased the children down here from upstairs. These monsters, now freed to roam rampant throughout the sanctuary, were once Remi Ehzla's pets.
        The monsters use hit-and-run tactics, leaping from cover and then darting into hiding again. They also make good use of their small size, forcing characters to spend their actions upturning worktables or dragging heavy cabinets out of the way just to get at them. The children remain the intellect devourers’ main targets. Oli and Ada shouldn’t survive the encounter unless the PCs take direct action to protect them.

        Bonds: “Don’t separate us!”
        Flaws: “We’re scared!”
      - The PCs will most likely want to escort the surviving children to safety. Both twins become visibly uncomfortable if they’re handed over to Diamara, as they saw her acting very strangely during the battle. Ada recounts the following tale if questioned privately:
        “We were upstairs, hiding in the refectory. That monster was up there with us – the one with the slimy head like an octopus – and it was fighting with the lady knight. The fog rolled over them, and suddenly we heard the monster praying to the lady’s god. ‘Please help!’ it croaked, ‘What’s happened to me?’ “The lady knight stumbled out of the fog, looking at her hands all confused. The monster gave this horrid scream and went for her, but the lady cut it down with her sword. Then she started stroking its face, like she hadn’t meant to kill it. “I’m telling you, she isn’t right anymore!”

        It attacks everyone its sees, even pursuing fleeing victims beyond the chamber. Throwing one of the water pails from location 8 over the elemental automatically deals 1d6 cold damage to it.
        
        Ritual of binding
        Using ritual from Terrace (area 5) to rebind elemental to furnace
        
        One person must chant from the scroll for 4 consecutive rounds, after which time the elemental is pulled back inside the furnace.
        
        The elemental cannot move more than 30 feet away from the character holding the scroll while the ritual is being performed.
        
        The elemental tries its best to set fire to the scroll during the ritual. Any attack that sets fire to the chanting character also ignites their scroll, destroying it within the round unless a nearby character spends their action to smother the flames.
        
        No magical training is needed to read from the scroll. The ritual was created to bind this elemental alone, and cannot be used on other creatures. #
