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.
