The Final Enemy
PREVIOUSLY - CAMPAIGN DIARIES 69 - TEMPLE OF THE SAHUAGINÂ
When last we left our heroes, they were on the second level of the Sahuagan Temple of the Kraken Society. The worship Sklatheral the Kraken and are building some sort of massive horn to call him and destroy Waterdeep. The Owlbear League was making their way down into the watery depths of their temple, using strange little creatures called quogairs that cover their mouths and produce air for a short period of time. They travel with the Riptide's first mate, Lorilla, a gorgon with the ability to petrify those she chooses, and in one of the first rooms they were exploring underwater, they came across a sentient lobster named Sherm.Â
    Sherm was signaling and trying to wave his pincers to get their attention. Now now it's psychically connected to Nowhere, and it asks for help escaping. In return it supplied information and led The League to a secret passage for the Sahuagin leader called "The Baron". They explored the Baron's room, but Atlas got slashed badly with a trap on his chest, so they left it, having only used five of the fifteen minutes of breathing they had with the quogairs. They have to save Barbarossa to sail on to Skullport, rescue the urchins and defeat The Xanathar guild.

Atlas swims over to Nowhere's defense and unleashes more punches and blows enhanced by her gauntlets of ogre power and the effects of a haste spell cast upon her, but there's only ten minutes of that left. She misses at first, but presses the attack and hits the shark several times, pummelling internal organs. She drives in more punches, breaking the shell-armor of the shark and it writhes and is driven unconscious, its internal organs battered by the half-elf monk.
