Neville leads VS, Hokan, Render, and Kain on an exploration of the underground complex they arrived at by magical portal. Taking refuge to rest in a chapel of the divination god Savras, VS discovers a magical wishbone and Hokan gives in to dwarven greed to steal a few (possibly cursed) platinum pieces. They find some creepy corpses, try to navigate across a bridge (Hokan falls down the chasm), and eventually explore upward and out to the surface, where they are in an unknown locale. They return in to the mines, find a really fun slide, and take refuge with Valorean, a dragonborn paladin of Mystra hunting the heretic Sikhil, who he believes is pursuing lichdom somewhere in the Salt Mines of Savras.

Hexcrawl 95 - Captives of the Yellowbone Goblins
Render, Neville, VS, and Kain are low on hit points and stripped of their gear as prisoners of the Yellowbone goblins in the weird bolthole laboratory of the wizard Haronin, an insane worshiper of the divination god Savras. The goblins want them to activate the portal pool, but Kain plays for time and Render, who they assume is property because he's a construct, works with M.I.C.H.A.E.L. his shield guardian to find another way in. Neville smooth-talks his captors, and he and Kain get VS to recover some of the wizard's books. Neville starts reading the Savras religious texts, and the party is able to activate the portal, sending Neville through first. The Yellowbones all rush into the portal pool, followed by the party. Still low on health and abilities, they face an unknown danger on the other side of the portal!

Hexcrawl 94 - Looking for Wizard Ruins
In Llorkh, Kain leads Render, Neville, Hokam, and VS in a search north into the hills looking for some ruins supposedly built by a wizard. They find the ruins in a valley of noxious gases, and have to enter the complex by way of the air vents - guarded by a spellcasting Yellowbone goblin. Once inside, they discover strange sigils and a pool that might be a portal, then get into a tangle with the Yellowbones - Render goes down, the others are captured. It's a cliffhanger!

Flip the Sorcerer leads Vond, Lysander, and Kathar back to the Grig Little Kingdom to help overthrow evil vizier Jhabshasid and restore power to King Flibnabmeister and his daughter Hollylollybon. Aided by former captain of guard Bentonkadonk, they infiltrate the Ogre Skull Palace and find the king missing. Princess Holly is found unconscious and attached to a fiendish device that is extracting her blood and transforming it into a serum. They fight the evil guardian and free Holly, then use the serum to get into the magic library of King Filbnabmeister. There they encounter the king's body and a portal to the Shadowfell, and the evil vizier Jhabshasid. Weak from their former battle, he downs most of the party quickly, leaving only Vond able to try to save who he can! Flip is saved, Kathar is slain, and Lysander and the villain disappear into the Shadow realm. Kathar's body is brought to Fort Heartwood, where the archdruid of Lurue is able to reincarnate her - as an orc. Lysander's fate remains unknown, but peace is restored to the grigs.

Hexcrawl 92 - The Grig Little Kingdom
Floki asks satyr bard Lysander to go see why some grigs and sprites are searching the Dead Magic Zone, so he assembles a team of dragonborn monk Kathar Videro, feytouched human sorcerer Flip, and two new PCs: halfling wizard Vond Lightfoot and dragonborn ranger Balastair. After a nearly deadly encounter with a displacer beast in the night, they talk to the grigs, who seem to be looking for a way to cure their ailing King Filbnabmeister. The party travels to the Grig Little Kingdom, where they drink some "shrinky drinky" and talk to Princess Hollylollybon and the sketchy vizier Jhabshasid in the Ogre Skull Palace. King Filbnabmeister is afraid of the dark and the only person who can access a magical library of some sort, and the shadows seem to behave extra-strangely here. One of the servants, Nannyplumkins, shows the party where to find the now imprisoned former captain of guards, Bentonkadonk. The party manages to free Ben, but in so doing the alarm is raised and the Ogre Skull Palace gets locked down. Lysander sneaks in to find the Princess and King but triggers the alarm once more when Shattering a door. He and the rest of the party flee the village with Ben, and head back to the Dead Magic Zone, where they learn that the grigs and ravens were looking for something there that Jhabshasid wants.
