20th of Elient.

Confidently the group decided to continue deeper into the Kobold Hall. Mathers teleported up to the mezzanine and found the burnt remains of a couple of Kobolds. Giving the all clear the rest of the group opened the double door where the Drakes had emerged from and continued cautiously into the dark. Dark Face scouted ahead and found a large cavern with 20ft ceilings and a small central room with only 10ft walls. As he was peering around an enormous boulder fell down and started rolling around the room threatening to crush them all. Dark Face had a close call, but they managed to move out of the boulders reach. They discovered a locked room in the center of the hall.

Inside a halfling prisoner told of being attacked by the kobolds and brought here unconscious. He claims to have been raised by a group of benevolent Goblins. Goblins who want to live in harmony with all others. They healed him, but could do nothing for the other occupant of the room. The started to cautiously look around for enemies. The newcomer, Gandor the 23rd, with his keen eyesight, spotted a Kobold perched on a balcony drawing a bead on the adventurers. They started to battle and more Kobolds emerged from their hiding spots. Mathers was perched on the now stationary boulder when a large flying Drake burst out of a hallway and tried to bite him in midair. The drake was quickly dispatched and crashed into the opposing wall.
Gandor and Panril had circled around and were in a dramatic battle with the Kobold Worym Priest and his Dragonshield bodyguards. After a tough battle the adventures finished off all but one of the Kobolds. Mathers interrogated him and the Kobold said that Szatahakas was in the next room, that he was the real boss, and that the Worympriest had the key to the secret door. They gathered the key and a note from the Goblin Slavers as well as the Worym Priests +1 staff of the War Mage.
Mathers deciding that no further information was forthcoming from this Kobold, so quickly killed him.

Next Gandor checked out the corridor and above the piles of Drake dung he saw a secret key hole. They used the key and discovered an inward swinging door that revealed a set of stairs descending into the darkness. Led by Darkface the adventures pushed forward into the dark. As Dark Face poked around they discovered an enormous natural cavern that was unnaturally cold. In fact a large pool of water was frozen solid in the middle of the cavern.
Suddenly a rush of air pushed out of the darkness an a large white shape leapt to the ground and tried to attack Darkface. With quick thinking Rayrond tossed a sunrod into the cavern to reveal a nasty young White Dragon trying to get it's claws into Dark Face. A great battle ensued and at the end the Dragon lay dead before them. They gathered the treasure, including the few belongings of Gandor. A quick rest and back to the road. On the way out Gandor's keen eyes spotted several pressure plates in the room with the coffins. He safely navigated his comrades to the road where they discovered their horses and the Dwarven armorer were gone.
