There is a tower in the middle of the castle. One of the elves. Lochnar'ya has gotten herself and the bird like thing into a kind of tunnel into the base of the tower. Once she has gotten herself inside, the rest of the adventurers join her.They explore each floor marveling at the splendor of the Gold elf living quarters. They take treasure from the belongings of the Gold elves. They each take a room in the tower as their own. Except for Nulorgo who sets up his room in the barracks. But Nulorgo does set up a shrine inside the second floor of the tower to begin his worship of Tempus.
While exploring the upper parts of the tower a trap springs on one of the elves. The others free him. The wizard in the group asks Nulorgo to reset the trap as this room will belong to the wizard and he wants the trap to work. Nulorgo does this with some difficulty as he is more accustomed to making armour and weapons.
They also find a well equipped kitchen and have a feast. Obviously a leader with good taste, the feast is prepared by Riker.
