So the second I had prepared for my premature death, a dragon swoops in and takes one of the "aspects" of our host Oleanth -- of course not killing but capturing him, preventing us from completing the spells needed to leave. Then Malekar runs thataway with the dragon, moving at inhumanoid speed. It was so obvious he had begun to worship Bascaron, I'm not certain why we were still traveling with him. These humans don't seem to understand the rules of our ancient elven philosopher named Darwin and would rather risk being killed or stuck on a hellish island than leave an obviously insane man behind. And don't they realize my time is running out ?

Anyways, a heavenly ethereal woman called a Ghaele came along with us to help us fight the evil dragon. We ran after the dragon and malekar (pretty easy to follow the destruction of a gigantic beast as it rushes through the forest) and as soon as we notice the tracks have stopped, it swoops down, breathing a horrific gas of despair, before I could jump out of the way. Unfortunately, in order to stay safe, I had to hide in the woods, where my spells had a difficult time reaching the huge beast. Thank goodness I can make myself a rod of eldritch spear soon to remedy that issue

Now evil Malakar, that is a frightening, yet powerful sight. He obviously wasn't so far gone that he didn't remember our weaknesses, and he most definitely fought us well (with Mooncalves, which happen to not look like anything from the moon, nor do they look like cows -- why not Flying Spaghetti Monster calves -- that would have tentacles). And, true to Malekar form, instead of using his spells to buff the calves up, he had buffed himself up beyond all belief. At least I can dispell those in the blink of an eye. What a nasty sword though - gigantic and toothed.

Durthen, instead of disabling malekar so we could question him, of course decided to chop him in two. He loves that axe. I think he uses it to make up for the lack of chances to use his other "weapon." At least Malekar seemed to return to his original form after the chopping - unconscious, but alive and no longer with evil-infused armor and weapons. Perhaps he has returned to his old self. His old, not quite evil yet most definitely not good self. Human gods have very loose definitions of morals.
