The party returned to the Malathil village to recover from their battle with the blue dragon. The next day the set out toward the drow cave that the eladrin had told them about. Their goal in this was a bit unclear. Some wanted to seek the stone ring, which is supposted to be a portal to the maze of Fathaghn. Others wanted to make contact with the drow at the cave.
Along the trail, the party came upon a group of young drow boys. The boys hid in the woods for a while, but after a short wait took off running to the north, away from the party. They left behind large sacks which they had been using to gather supplies for their clan, and one boy who was too scared to run. This boy was named Jartrin.
Jartrin told them that they had been sent on many gathering missions lately, trying to fill their stocks as if winter were coming. But winter is many months away.
Jartrin agreed to take the party back to his home, so that they might meet with Belarcice.
Along the way, they came upon a large open valley. The tall grass in this valley was all covered in cob webs. Jartrin told them that many spiders lived in this valley. He told them this is where the drow get many of their "work animals". He also told them there was a stone ring over the hill at the other end of this valley.
The party told Jartrin to go on without them. They wanted to go to the stone circle.
In this valley, the party was attacked by 2 phase spiders (L8 skirmisher), 3 young phase spiders (level 3 soldiers), 1 Feyspitter spider (level 8 controller), and a drow spell spinner (level 5 artiller). The total XP for this encounter is 1875. This brings the total for each character to 7510.
The party has reached 6th level.
The party recovered 5 100 GP gems from the drow, and within the stone circle, Perra found a magic belt (Cincture of the Dragon Spirit).

Session #26 - Dragon/Darun patrol
In the last session, Perra had left the group with a Malathil patrol to scout out the city of Wingsong. From a cliff lookout, he observed the goings on in the city, including the activity of a dragon with a rider occasionally circling the city on patrol.
The patrol met up with Surina (the Dragonborn woman who had been brought to Fort Aralan to care for the kidnapped Merdosh a while back). Surina is now employed as a nanny for one of the Bahumati leaders, and she's acting as a spy for a resistance movement in the city.
Surina tells Perra that there's a great deal of excitement about the freeing of the crown from the Tomb. The Bahumati feel that the crown can unleash great power for them. They are very upset that it has gone missing again.
Surina has also heard talk of secret meetings with "Nathnitra" and "Belarcice". She does not know what these meetings are, or why they are occurring.
On the return trip, Perra and his patrol were being tailed by the dragon and rider. The decided to split up, with Perra going to the rendevous point with the party, and the patrol going directly back to the Malathil camp.
Along the way, Perra was stopped by the dragon and rider. The rider was a Darun (a knight in the Bahumati order). The Darun became suspicious, and asked Perra to return with him to the city. The dragon flew back to its home, while Perra and the knight walked west on the trail, back toward the city.
The rest of the party had observed this. Eventually, they caught up with the pair, and ambushed the knight. Before the end of combat the dragon returned to check on his master.
The party defeated the knight and the dragon. Yosh fell in combat, but was revived afterward. Perra delivered the final blow.
