The party, including Surina and Merdosh, used the "Green" sigil and a Linked Portal ritual provided by Sihirbaz to teleport to parts unknown.
They found themselves in the hills, looking out over a makeshift town, built in a valley filled with ruins.
Camped near the teleport sigil when they arrived was a group of gnome thieves. This group of theives had a hippogriff as a pet.
They told the lead thief they were searching for the "Crown of Trakas". He told them that it was in the tomb of Trakas. The old tomb has long been looted of all its treasure, except for a stone crown, glued by petrification to a stone table. No one has been able to lift it. Legend is that he who can wield the crown will release the true treasure of Trakas.
For a price, the gnomes drew out a map of how to get to the tomb. The party set off to follow the map. Suirna returned to her home city, leaving the party.
But as they travelled, they were ambushed by this same group of gnomes (1 gnome arcanist, 1 gnome sniper, 3 gnome "skulks", and 1 hippogriff - total 900 XP). The gnomes had noticed Merdosh, they wanted to take him for their own, in hopes of claiming the treasure.
The party defeated the gnomes and the hippogriff. One gnome was captured, and another escapted.
