On the 4^th day of the month of Rhombidderahn, after surviving their last battle the party notices a hole in flor of the southwest corner of the room. Comiza sends his familiar into the hole and it is promptly killed by something unseen. Then Erg decides to jump into the hole to the floor below to rescue the owl... and is also killed by a spider and two skeletons.

Deciding that the hole in the floor isn't the best way to venture into the lower level, the party decides to use the stairs in the southeast corner of the level. Within moments of descending to the second floor, Helmon almost runs into a nearly transparent Gelatinous Cube. Helmon is engulfed by the cube and partially digested. Wulfgar is also engulfed by the cube, but the cube is destroyed before Wulfgar is killed. He requires extensive healing, but survives. The party takes Helmon's rotting body back to the surface where a discussion ensues regarding whether or not to bury him.

After two days of rest and recovery, the party descends once again into the dungeon. This time they decide to stay in the upper level since the next level down has proven so disconcertingly deadly. Moving further south into an as–yet unexplored room, Wulfgar opens a door and steps in. He is immediately set upon by five skeletons. Entering the room through multiple doors the party quickly finds themselves overwhelmed by the ferocity of the attacks by the skeletons. Forest is downed, then Wulfgar and Comiza are also downed. They are dying, but stablized. They might have a day or two before something comes along to eat them. If they're lucky.

The adventure suspended late morning of the 6^th day of Rhombidderahn.
