Early last evening I was chatting it up with Angelica, Aldwyn Greybeard, and Chanelle when Ki'Anna Stydoran messaged to see if I would take a look at an odd book she picked up in her travels. I don't have the complete text, but the jist if it was, Man finds demon partly dead, just before dispatching the beast it mentions it's brother deep in a dungon guarding a treasure. The only real clue which dungon was the word wrong in the book had been capitalized. We discussed taking a peek ourselves, then decided to gather a few troups. Angelica, and Aldwyn decided to come along, Chanelle passed (I wonder if, perhaps she has some pregognitive powers), but did go to find her sister Ciara. Off the 5 of us went.
Ok, a bit of setup here just incase people don't know. If you have never taken the portal from Wrong 2 to Wrong three, here's how it goes, it empies out into the center of a 30 * 30 square room ... one way, the portal back is WAAaaaaay over on the other side of the room. I'm pretty sure we ALL knew this, not the best strategic fighting position in the world.
Sane Choice #1 - Someone burns a sneeking charge and takes a peek. At least 2 of us did infact have sneeking items for just this sort of purpose *looks dumb*.
Sane Choice #2 - Send thru a sacrificial lamb to take a look.
Sane Choice #3 - Give up on the Wrong portal completely and take the one from the other dungon.
Our Choice - All of us charge valiantly thruough the gate.
What we saw upon taking the gate was the target demon (I assume) and, well, it looks like 13 or so of his brothers surrounding the entry point. If this was not the mother of all "Oh crap!" moments, it was a close relative. They seemed to take a rather dimm view of our presence there and moved in. We mad a vailiant (if somewhat brief) stand in the center of the room, very nearly managing to take out a demon or two. At some point Aldwyn noticed it wasn't going particularly well and made a break for the portal, to his credit he did make it about a third of the way before sucumming to the foul beasts.
The whole encounter went something like this:
You see: a hell hound
You see: a Terathan drone
You see: a Terathan Warrior

Ciara's death cry is heard throughout the land!
Thomas's death cry is heard throughout the land!
Ki'Anna Stydoran's death cry is heard throughout the land!
Aldwyn Greybeard's death cry is heard throughout the land!
Angelica's death cry is heard throughout the land!
Total time elapsed between taking the portal and TPW (Total Party Wipeout) approx 3 seconds. Hehehe. *wonders if thats some sort of record*
Some of us called in our relatives to help with recovery, but by the time they arrived most of the demons seemed to have wandered off, probably got bored of kicking our heads around.
As always, thanks to whomever set it up, for all that it wound up being quite possibly one of the shortest quests ever, it was the most fun I've had in a bit. Next time we will be less dumb.
