Having contacted a higher plane, Heironymous confirmed that Calanis was waiting in the Demon's tower, a grim location long rumored to be home to an evil wizard. The group set off toward the barrow hills to seek their new foe. They battled through many horrors on their way up the tower, and finally confronted the image of Calanis and two fire elementals. The heroes endured a fireball cast by the image that slew Sir Feek and his henchman. The rest survived but barely. Finally, Heinymous opened a secret door behind which Calanis was hiding, and he was undone by a feeblemind spell.
Calanis was seized by the party. On a floor below, the heroes encountered a djinn who was bound to the tower. He asked that the crystal skull be destroyed, thus freeing him. Lyral destroyed the skull, and in return, she was granted a wish. She wished for her sister to live again.
Later in the week, the party scryed the sister of Lyral. She now lived as a wretch on the wicked streets of Zagra. Visefrin grudgingly agreed to pay Pagovin his tribute, but told the messenger that his lord should expect a visit from the Bishop of Tandis.
