| - | The planeswalkers trekked up the middle mount of Torch and after dealing with a few local encounters, met [[Badurth]] in [[the Festhall of Falling Coins]]. They handed over [[the Brotherhood Janko|Giovanni]]'s letter, but before they were given a reply Badurth expressed great interest in several members of the party. | + | The planeswalkers trekked up the middle mount of [[Torch]] and after dealing with a few local encounters, met [[Torch#The Festhall of Falling Coins|Badurth]] in [[Torch#the Festhall of Falling Coins]].

| He showed them a wanted poster with their faces on it, telling them it was printed by [[the Gray Orb]]. As a man who knows everything and everyone in town, he was unaccustomed to not knowing what was going on, and so he offered a tit-for-tat exchange of information. | He showed them a wanted poster with their faces on it, telling them it was printed by [[the Gray Orb]].

| The planeswalkers returned to Giovanni with Badurth's written reply, where he offered them an even higher paying job; helping him with a secret mission to assault the Gray Orb. He had forged a fragile alliance with [[the Kindred of Yoj]] and [[the Fire Kings]], and together they were planning a three-pronged assault. But the plan hinged on a surprise force getting on the other side of the wall and opening the gates from the inside without allowing them to light a signal fire and alert the Gray Orb of the intrusion. Badurth's information told of an old burial catacomb that predated the wall, and if a small force could traverse it to the other side, they could surprise attack the guards and open the gate. In exchange for their support, he offered them a full third of the take when he looted the Gray Orb headquarters. | The planeswalkers returned to Giovanni with Badurth's written reply, where he offered them an even higher paying job; helping him with a secret mission to assault the Gray Orb.

| - | The party agreed, and with [[Mosely]] and [[Lenny]] (another Brotherhood member) they ventured to a run down graveyard that housed these catacombs. After an encounter with the ghost of its former caretaker, and a pitched battle with a small force of Yugoloths in the catacombs proper, the group discovered a sealed-off temple to some ancient and unknown god behind a wall. Aside from the skeletal remains of a worshipper and an adamantine key, they found nothing else of note or value within, so they ventured forward, finding the ruins of the catacombs connected to an underground river. Splashing upstream, they discovered a well that led up to the surface, and the other side of the wall. | + | The party agreed, and with Mosely and Lenny (other [[the Brotherhood Janko|Brotherhood]] members) they ventured to a run down graveyard that housed these catacombs.

| Taking full advantage of the element of surprise, the planeswalkers overwhelmed the guard contingent at the gates and opened them for the army hidden outside. Then, joining Giovanni's strike force, they marched through the streets of Karal and attacked the Gray Orb headquarters. | Taking full advantage of the element of surprise, the planeswalkers overwhelmed the guard contingent at the gates and opened them for the army hidden outside.
