Session 31 - The Annihilatrix

After consulting with the war council and with Bariashuu, the Dogs of War decided to try to parlay with General Jynjur. They sent a message to her and she agree to meet on respective sides of the Martyr Bridge. They asked Jynjur why she had wanted to blow up Sigil, referring to the Annihilatrix. They suspected she didn't know anything about it and wanted to see if they were correct. She indicated subtly that she was unaware of the modron bomb and asked if she could see it. After discussing this they made arrangements to allow her to scry on the device. After seeing it, Jynjur agreed to meet at Ninhub's Web so she could discuss it with the party. After some discussion it became clear that Jynjur was unaware that she was being used by the Adaranth. Her only goal was to rule Sigil, which she desired for reasons personal to her own ideology. She agreed with the assessment of the party that the modrons seemed to have an agenda of their own, and reluctantly agreed to help stop them. She enchanted the slaad gems carried by the party to allow them to siphon energy from the plane of Limbo. Then, with the help of Zyndar,  the party located a cubic gate which could create portals to three of the elemental planes. With the help of Abbar Savi, they would have access to energy from all four elemental planes, which was required to power the bomb, and energy from the plane of Limbo, which would amplify the blast. They planned an attack on Mechanus with the war council, which involved Ctha-Nithaa's shock troops creating a diversion near the Temple of Primus and the party accessing the structure from below using access tunnels with the help of the Lone modron. The attack began and the party took advantage of the chaos caused by the gnoll forces to move under the city. They had to fight their way past modron guards to get to the base of the temple. Once they arrived, they found a large magical and mechanical device inside which was imprisoned The Lady of Pain. She was obviously furious at being imprisoned in this manner. Using the modron technician, they party set the bomb and escaped back into the elemental plane of water for safety. The bomb exploded and the party looked back through the portal to see indescribably carnage in the modron city. The entire Temple of Primus had been destroyed along with a massive part of the city. The Lady of Pain was unharmed and free and the party saw her fly into the air and disappear in an exultant rage.
