Another spot report ;)

TAKE HEED AND BEAR WITNESS TO THE TRUTHS THAT LIE HEREIN, FOR THEY ARE
THE LAST LEGACY OF THE HORADRIM...

Kheperkare woke after a nap to find a paladin and a barbarian in town, 
getting ready to head to Travincal, so she asked if she could hitch a 
ride ("I'll pick up the Black Book later on...") and skip the usual 
Here-We-Go-Gathering-Giblets-In-May...

Out the trio headed, the pally switching back and forth from Conviction 
to break the still all-too-common lightning immunities. The Valk needed 
recasting once during the battle with the Council, and a lone minion 
nearly escaped, but soon they went down and it was into the Durance via 
waypoint. Tidbit the singing barb's Find Item coughed up truly shocking 
amounts of gold while when Kheperkare popped open a chest a Dol rune 
fell out.

"Nice," she said, pocketing it. "Best rune I've found in months!"

Level 2 of the Durance was huge, stuffed to the max with monstrosities 
of multiple hues and shapes (but no dolls, thankfully). Back and forth 
our heroes ranged, fragging badly behaved beasties left, right and 
centre. Bosses and champions and lightning-immunes were broken and fell 
to warcries and Lightning Fury and Jab from mercs and javazon alike... 
holy bolts lit up the black interiors of the Zakarum Temple.

Finally, they found the stairs down. The welcoming committee charged 
out, tossing fireballs and going BZZZZZZZ as more Lightning Fury bounced 
off the walls. Kheperkare found herself face to face with an LE FE CE 
Bremm and Jabbed and cast Decoy until he backed off and exploded, 
scattering pots everywhere. WhatsHisFace on the left-hand alcove was 
next, and them up to the Big Floating Freak Himself.

"You're too late! Ahahahaha!" he howled, spewing thick green poison 
clouds everywhere.
Kheperkare just shook her head ("Oh come on, who *talks* like that??") 
and the trio laid into him. Soon he was dissipating in a blast of light, 
dropping nothing of interest, and after a brief detour to see 
WhatsHisFace in the *right*-hand alcove, it was on to the Pandemonium 
Fortress!

And time for a nap.

(Thanks to Anne and Bruce for the company and waypoints! *grins*)
