Session 30 - The Foundry Tower

The Dogs of War planned a way to attack the tower of the Foundry. They released the fiend Suuthra and had him pose as a solider transporting slaves. The ruse worked and the party gained access to the tower, using a planeshift spell to banish the devils guarding the entrance. Inside the tower they found a device being built. It consisted of four conduits which divert energy from the four elemental planes into a central chamber. After examining the device, they found that when the energy of the four conduits was combined, it would produce a massive explosion. This explosion would certainly destroy the entire city of Sigil and likely much of the surrounding area in the plane of Concordant Opposition. Each conduit of the device was accompanied by a strange looking sensor which resembled a large modron eye. The party destroyed these eyes, throwing them into the magma from the Plane of Fire in the basement of the tower. Before destroying them, Caedryll made sure to expose his buttocks to each one. There was a non-combatant quadrone positioned at the device who answered some questions about it. The motivations for the device, and for potentially destroying the city were unclear, but Nedra surmised that perhaps the modrons wished to hold the entire city hostage as some kind of bargaining chip. It was also notable that there were modrons and devils guarding the tower, but none of Jynjur's elves. Perhaps the elves were unaware of the plan to ransom the city. Once the party had the information they needed, they disabled the conduits, neutralizing the device.
