 Session 185 was played on 1/9.

Joho, Mystic, 7 (Chris)
Koltic, Cleric 6 (NPC)
Biffin, Fighter 7 (NPC)

Planning a quick delve, the 3 amigos stay behind to handle some personal business. Biffin, done with his training, rejoins the party. On the way to the dungeon, heading for the hobgoblin caves, the party is ambushed by a large group of goblins. Morgana has no time for them, and roasts 16 of them with a fireball, sending the rest into the hills.

Heading to the Upper Temple of Yg, and then directly to the Lower Temple of Yg, they open the secret door into the viper room. Over a dozen vipers are still alive and angry now that the web and sleep spell have worn off. Morgana drops a wall of ice on them all, and the party steps over the chunks of broken ice and head out the now unblocked door. Continuing their exploration they find a store room and a priests quarters, neither of which have much of note. Heading back north toward the main worship space, they find the doors locked and a quartet of minotaurs guarding the room. Sadly they didn’t see the minotaurs right away, and when Joho shoves the door open, he’s immediately grabbed out of the doorway, and tossed into the ax of a waiting minotaur. Borumar and Morgana go immediately on the attack, while Joho’s mystical fists and feet cause even more pain than the ax did to him. The fight is brutal and bloody for both groups, but in the end it’s Morgana collecting various bits of Minotaur for her research. Little treasure is otherwise recovered.

They quickly use the gate and head home.
