Recap of Part 19, Act 1
The PC’s continued their search for the 2nd Ioun stone key in the testing wing. First Camilla sent her angels down the hallway to see if anyone else was around, they reported back that there were no immediate threats, but several short hallways leading to doors. They went to the first door on the right side, but it was locked. They then preceded to the next door, Thoxl made sure there were no traps before opening. The round room contained several specimen tanks built into the wall, one of them had a preserved dead Aboleth inside, Thoxl saw it was wearing a ring on one of its tentacles. They opened the door, releasing the mind of the dead aboleth, but it was not able to take over anyone’s thoughts since the party was protected from mind control through some protection spells, and Camillas angels. The ring turned out to be a ring of truth, anyone wearing must tell the truth. (Will DC 20 to lie, cursed, wearer cannot remove)
The party went down the hall to the next door, when opened they encountered 2 Iron golems protecting a planer shift portal device. The PC’s attacked the Iron Golems and they released their poisoned breath weapon of CON damage. The party was not affected by the poison, but they did take a few slam attacks before finishing them off. After the battle an investigation of the plane portal showed that it has remarkable destination accuracy when used for planer travel. During the battle Circy summoned a tyrannosaurus rex to attack and after the battle he sent it to break into the locked door the party did not get past yet.
Meanwhile, the party went down the hall to the next door, this room contained the operational control for the clockwork creatures. The machine had a ray blast that could do different types of energy damage, and it had arms with great reach that it could also hit with. It shot at Thoxl and missed, and the party moved into the room to attack. The party took a few hits, but were able to destroy it, when it died it also exploded, doing massive damage to all in the room. The party did surmise after they recovered that this device helped coordinate the clockwork creatures in the compass facility.
The summoned tyrannosaurus rex finished breaking down the door, so the party went to investigate. The round room was filled with broken tables, chairs, shelves, Etc. A thorough search uncovered a clockwork golem manual.
The party then broke down the other door in the room, went down a short hallway to a door that opened normally into a large circular room. The room contained a large throne 10’ off the ground, sitting in a chair at the top was a human figure dressed like a noble, with a red ioun stone above his head. Thoxl perceived that a creature was also walking down the stairs, he drank a potion of true seeing to be sure. Then some of the party with the hint from Thoxl also noticed the creature. Nephys cast invisibility purge, revealing the creature for the party, it was surrounded by the party and easily disposed of. The creature was a mezlan, a shape shifter ooze. After its defeat the creature turned into a puddle of goo, with the red ioun stone sitting in the middle, The party recovered it, it is one of the stones they need to unlock the portal to the doomsday stores below. (Vivacious rose prism ioun stone).
The party, not worrying about noise, broke into another locked door, this time they found a mezlan forming press, and two buffed up mezlan creatures that attacked Camillas eidolon in the hallway. Battle broke out, the mezlan had a few spells they used with some success, but the party was not affected by the poison gas and only took a little damage from the encounter.

(Reminder, Camilla teleported the last treasure haul to Jurix and can pick up the ordered items after two days. The party rested after, so the items should be ready when the party rests again. It has only been a few hours in game time, currently 2:15 PM).
