                The party attempted to parley with the glabrezu, and through the conversation they learned that the glabrezu was not the true mastermind behind the plot to take over the sahuagin and that his leader was known as the Deep Mother. He gave the party passage to the Deep Mother and he also gave them his gnome prisoner, Fiddlesticks, to aid the party with killing the deep mother. The party moved into the lair and attacked the Deep Mother only to find out that she was an aboleth. The party was ambushed almost immediately once the combat started by a pack of sharks and Gaspar was dominated by the Deep Mother for a good chunk of the combat. After the long encounter the deep mother managed to flee from her lair and further into the underwater catacombs. The group returned to the sahuagin who told them that they would throw a feast in their honour for driving the Deep Mother away and they invited the party to stay and help them continue the fight against the sahuagin who were still loyal to the Deep Mother and her rebels. The party politely refused and upon the feast starting all of the party passed out from drugged food except for Gaspar who somehow made a crazy Con saving throw. The sahuagin told Gaspar that if we ever returned to their kingdom that we would be killed on the spot and then proceeded to force feed him the food until he passed out.

            The party awoke on a small tropical island where they were stranded for three weeks. All of their magic items that allowed them the ability to survive underwater were taken away from them. During their stay on the island they learned from Fiddlesticks that they had been in the sahuagin kingdom for nearly two years and that in their absence an alliance between giants and orcs has been formed an they have been attacking every settlement along the Sword Coast. After three weeks on the island a merchant vessel came by and the party was able to get the ships attention and passage back to main land. However, 10 days into there voyage the ship was attacked by the sahuagin king who was riding a giant shark. The party was the only survivors from the attack. They spent the rest of the day surviving on drift wood until a thick fog overtook them and a boat came out of it. Baphomet, Gaspar, and Hamoot immediately recognized the boat as The Rainbow Way, the ship they had sailed two years earlier.
