	Turns out there's a job down in Pasifika. The employer is from the Gentlefolk's Exploratory Society called Professor Robert Hillenberg (please call me Bob) – a water mage who specializes in the study of sponges. He told us that the Gentlefolks Society was being blamed for unleashing the zombie plague when they were poking around in the sahuagin's abandoned city. Plus some of their members who were exploring in the vicinity were missing. Astrology reading were telling them that they were alive, sort of. That could mean they were undead, paralysed, petrified, in a coma ~~â€¦~~ or other stuff.		Turns out there's a job down in Pasifika.

	I will admit I'm not a morning person but I did make it on time and we got our bat wings. I was looking at the sheer drop from the platform when Ben pushed me off ~~â€¦~~ did I mention I don't like heights and I'm not a good flier? We flew our way towards the Beth Salem portal in the Sea of Grass and I made a splash landing in the large lake nearby. As I swam to the shore I felt something scrape my leg, probably a fish, but I was feeling rather tired as I made my way to the portal. That was when I remembered there had been reports of undead in that lake.		I will admit I'm not a morning person but I did make it on time and we got our bat wings.

	Through the portals and we walked to the trading post, about twenty miles distant around the coast. The landscape was rather greener than the last time I had been here. Coconut palms were growing between the path and the shore while grasses and flowers had established a foothold on the ground around us. It took us most of the day to get to the trading post.

	We ended up circumnavigating the crater looking for an easy way down that would leave us unobserved but ended up dropping down the side. We then found a hovel on the outside of the city and hid in it while we observed using crystal balls. The ground had no aura and there were no fish about either. The 'sahuagin' about were all lesser undead and they were engaged in repetitive patterns.

The 'sahuagin' about were all lesser undead and they were engaged in repetitive patterns.

	So I attempted to summon an elemental spy and managed to get Aquee, a rather smart elemental, more like a sprite in someways. Apparently she's got sisters, Aqua, Aqui, Aquo, Aqul and Aquol which led Sierra to speculate whether the family name was Duct. Also she said that one of her sisters had been summoned by a water mage that had engaged in some ~~â€¦~~. interesting activities. Hmmmm ~~â€¦~~.

Also she said that one of her sisters had been summoned by a water mage that had engaged in some .... interesting activities. Hmmmm ....

	Anyway, before the conversations became even more lewd, I sent Aquee out to look for anything interesting, unexpected and different. When she got back she told us most of it was boring but there was stuff in the central pillar that was different including air pockets. There were also normal sized creatures and big ones, including some with four arms. The crystal ball showed four little ones and one big one guarding the top of the pillar. I then probed downwards with the crystal ball but all I saw was dark.

	Eventually I was rallied by Imelio. A flurry of water bolts, powered by rage, announced that the water mage was back in the fray. The bolts plowed into the skeletons and, between that and the others actions, it wasn't long until they were brought down. The skeletal snake took a little longer but, soon, it too was down.

The bolts plowed into the skeletons and, between that and the others actions, it wasn't long until they were brought down. The skeletal snake took a little longer but, soon, it too was down.

	A closer look at the sarcophegus led us to wonder if it was actually some sort of cocoon as there didn't seem to be any way to get it open. Inside was one confused mind and a larger control disk was stuck in it. I couldn't find any traps but it was definitely magical. Veor tried to remove the disk in one piece but then discovered there were wires attached to it that disappeared into the interior of the sarcophegus. She ended up turning the disk to snow. Vanderhan then shattered the sarcophegus. A big blob of air erupted from the wreckage along with a human male wearing a helmet to which the wires were attached. I dropped a previous waterbreathing spell on him and we discovered this was Professor Rutherford. He told us he had been dreaming of conducting battles ~~â€¦~~ and losing. Military Science was not his strongpoint. Instead he was a Namer – with extras as well as a Master Alchemist and was the leader of the first expedition. They had been taken down by a large force of undead while investigating the sunken city of Atlantis.

	The zombie plague was definitely necromantic and it's purpose was to convert the population to undead. The necromancer involved was female and she had been seen directing the undead forces. Some sort of humanoid mer-octapoid. I was starting to get very suspicious about who this might be.

	Veor wanted to visit the pixies that live in the forest that had sprung up near the northern tip in case the explorers had ended up there. So we entered what appeared to be a normal tropical forest and waited just past the boundary. I was sure we were being observed and it wasn't long before we were asked what we were doing here. Between my rudimentary pixie and Veor's elven, we got the message that we wanted to talk to someone. So they flew off to get a pixie who knew Common.

	Another pixie, called Prilla, arrived along with her butterfly dragon friend. She told us that the missing explorers, led by a Professor Daniel Rutherford had been here but they had left to look at the sunken city of Atlantis and also the abandoned sahuagin city. The pixies had warned them about the 'scaly ones' but Prof Rutherford was sure they had gone. We shared some food with Prilla and the other pixies then left to scout out the area.

	Since there was no idea what we were going to find on the seafloor, I decided to plate up in my eog armour which resulted in a bit of ogling from the male members of the party. The discussion on whether to take a mage created boat or an iceberg out to sea also resulted in one of the strangest conversations I had ever heard.

			Even with 'chip and whittle' magics, I was able to blast five of the sahuagin into oblivion while the others, with the help of the knights, defeated the remainder.

			We then entered one of the three tunnels as we were fairly sure they all joined up underground. Exploring the passages revealed some rather interesting loot in what looked like a long, wide, trophy room with large doors at the end. Going through those revealed our destination.
