The party leaves Percy behind so he can copy spells - 4.5 days. He copies alarm, comprehend languages, contact other plane, divination, find familiar, gentle repose, identify, leomund's tiny hut, magic mouth, phantom steed, rary's telepathic bond, tenser's floating disk, and unseen servant.
Afterwards he goes back to the lich -- he can see into the ethereal plane. Says Gale thinks we need the book to figure out the mystery of his identity. Promises him they will return.
Gets the book - contains:
6th level: disintegrate, globe of invulnerability
7th level: finger of death, plane shift
8th level: dominate monster, power word stun
9th level: power word kill
The rest of the party returns to Raven Roost with the loot. Everyone gets 1431g, 2s, 5c value; but it's all in electrum, silver, etc; no gold.
Dren goes off on the party about making deals and taking loot in the amber temple. Says he and bell came for bell's mother. Gale says the same Gale is still there but can't be straightforward anymore. Gale leaves to go to Valleki. Bell gives 100g worth of coins to the ravens in the top roost.
Dannika tells Gale that Fiona is trying to take power from the Mayor now that Izek is gone.
--- NEXT DAY ---
Bell leaves a note behind and goes to Barovia to help the people, for an unknown amount of time.
Gale buys gloves to hide his extra fingers and goes to the church to talk about the orphanage. The priest says with shifting power, they have been unable to procure a facility. Gale gives him 100g; he says maybe one day they'll call him St Gale.
Gale returns to RR and Dren gives him the note. They spend the night at RR and head to Barovia. Halfway they see a figure with a wagon and some mules approaching. She asks if D&G are the adventurers that have been causing all the trouble. Asks who the leader is and D points to G. Magda Stolojen. Looking for Bell's companions. Says maybe we're worth helping and seems genuine. Met Bell via trade - he wants to heal the land while she works with the party. They turn back to RR and start building a wall.
--- 3.5 DAYS LATER ---
Party goes to get P at the temple. He shows G Exethanter's book and they release the flame skulls and leave. G tells P about the town happenings; P suggests that Fiona's sons are less pro-Strahd.
The party returns to RR.
