From the diary of Silvan the Faerie
Session date: 6.1.2005

20.5.

We retroactively cast spells to create some Spawning Liquid,
 then cast spells to Hêrâ to boost her constitution.

Felaithan said that while Deilo couldn't cast a spell to find
 out what was being spoken here, he could cast a spell to find
 out what a specific person's plans were. Also, demonic spies
 were to be gotten rid of. Mind flayers were said to be using
 mind control to avoid detection.

Felaithan also said that there'd been two attempts on his life
 already, and that Tralla was missing. The goblin village was
 currently being evacuated, and it seemed like the goblins were
 undergoing some sort of negotiations with the demons. There
 had been a lot of contact between the goblins and the demons.
 He also warned that there would undoubtedly be attempts on
 Longfoot's life, as well.

The Queen of Aleandor said that Aleandor's troops would not
 join the battle in the underground caves unless Deilo would
 be gotten rid of. She thought the dwarves should evacuate,
 and that Aleandor was prepared to give them some sort of
 reservate should they leave Tundan. She thought it was
 imperative to get the demons under the sky, out from the
 underground caves. Buran agreed with this, saying they dwarves
 would concentrate on defending Tundan and leaving the other
 caves alone.

Lorenian spoke of spells that had been talked about, of a
 great spell that would change a river's direction and make it
 flow into the Great Burning Hollow. The pressure and steam
 from this would destroy all life underground, but also
 forcing the dwarves to evacuate. There was a chance that Deilo
 might discover this plan, but at least it would drive the
 demons out. There was also a chance that this would make the
 Great Burning Hollow collapse entirely, among other things
 burying several Black Steel mines. Should this happen, the
 water from the swamp would all pour down to where the Great
 Burning Hollow had once been.

After discussing this plan for a while, Taelan the Biologist
 commented that there was a volcano in the Great Burning
 Hollow, and it might not be a good plan to sink it under
 water.

We discussed things in detail, finally deciding upon the
 following plans:

1) Find the time mage Marlin, to see if he would help us kill
Deilo
2) Step up all military units to full readiness, giving the
 reason to be that there's no knowing of what the demons might
 do and when they might attack. The dwarves will be given the
 reason that they have to be ready to defend Tundan.
3) Make four bombs to flood the underground and block the
 routes to the Great Burning Hollow.

Felaithan was dispatched to find Marlin.

21.5. - 24.5.

Aleandorian troops deployed to the northern border, elves to
 their own border. Goblins evacuated to Myrnur. Kobolds allied
 themselves with the demons and moved to the Great Burning
 Hollow.

Lorenian ordered me to use my teleporting abilities to perform
 messenger duty during the battle.

25.5.

Lorenian attempted to teleport two bombs to the Great Burning
 Hollow and succeeded.

The demons assaulted the dwarves while the dwarves were
 withdrawing from Tundan. Between one twelfth and one
 thirteenth of Tundan's dwarves were slain.

The demons collapsed some holes to the ground and fled the
 Great Burning Hollow before we could flood it. All the
 Aleandorian golems and the Myrnur one were on the move. The
 Aleandorian golems consisted of twenty-eight ordinary ones,
 five blacksteel ones and one juggernaut.

Draggis was assaulted by balrogs, succubi and incubi. Angels
 and battle mages scrambled to defend the dragon.

Four balrogs were slaved under the battle mages' control. The
 enemies killed Draggis, after which the enemy began to
 retreat. Six balrogs were slain during the fighting. Of the
 angels, one sixth were slain. Of the incubi, one eighth.

Tundan fell under attack, and Abrahm refused to commit his
 angels to their defense since not all the defenders had
 arrived there yet. The dwarves ordered a retreat, but suffered
 heavy casualties.

After four tenths of the dwarves had perished in their attempt
 to pull away, the dwarves accepted the demon's offer of
 surrender. They were driven underground, where they could no
 longer affect the battle.

Aradriel was attempting to animate our dead before Abrahm could
 resurrect them, binding them to this conflict. Juliennah was
 carrying out mind control, attempting to take over the minds
 of the enemies.

Lorenian teleported Juliennah and Abrahm to where Aradriel was.
 Juliennah took over the mind flayers protecting Aradriel,
 making the fight Deilo. Abrahm attacked Aradriel, slaying him
 in single combat. Quickly afterwards, Abrahm cast a spell that
 destroyed the Book of Necreegh, destroying Aradriel.

Suddenly, beings with a spirit stopped from dying until they
 were beaten apart, and even then the spirits stayed in their 
 bodies. This led to the demons without spirits being pretty 
 quickly killed.

The balrogs spotted Juliennah, attacking her and paying no heed
 to their own casualties as Juliennah mind-controlled them.

Lorenian realized that something was happening, and teleported
 us to where the balrogs were. Juliennah was killed in the
 fighting.

Balrogs found Abrahm, attacking him. Abrahm challenged them,
 demanding them to serve him. One of them was separated from
 the group to face Abrahm in single combat. Abrahm cast a
 spell, banishing its spirit back into the void. Now protected
 by the balrogs, he destroyed Juliennah's mirror.
