Ibram schools the DM and strikes down the evil undead menace, smiting it through its withered heart, and slaying it for all eternity! It lets out a howl as it dissipates into dust.
"NYRISSA NOOOOOOOOOO!"
Glancing Inside the mausoleam, the party can see a large stone coffin.

Well done Ibram! Maybe I should fall prey to hold spells more often.
Stand back and I will try my hand at this coffin. It could be treasure, but given our luck it's probably the master vampire that runs this place.
Once everyone gives some room, Kieran opens the lid to the coffin. If it is too heavy for just him he will ask Ibram to help.

I wonder if that dust has any useful properties? While Kieran is in such a rush to open things and tempt fate I suppose I have time to examine it.
Tirnel ~detects magic~ on the dust.
The building is very small, so if anyone wants to be more than 10' from Kieran they will have to go back outside.
The dust is not magical and Tirnel does not think it would be useful.
Go ahead Kieran
Kieran opens the coffin to a blast of sonic energy.

OOOF! Too bad none of your magics are handy at opening trapped stuff Tirnel. Be less wear and tear on the rest of us.
There is a single gem in the coffin.

Well I guess this is what we came for Ibram. You're up.
Kieran steps away from the massive coffin.
Check out the gem...
The gem appears to be a well cut sapphire of just the right size to fit above the emerald in Briar's hilt.
Ibram places the gem on the hilt and it holds in place as if magnetic.
Um, guys...My sword, Briar, is telling me that we need to link hands. He's going to teleport us to where we need to go.
Hold out my hands
This wasn't covered in the Manuals of Abadar, Kentaur mutters under his breath.
He grabs Ibrams hand and reaches for Tirnel/Kieran.
As Tirnel and Kieran reach out to grab hold of Kentaur and Ibram's hands, the party is transported to a wooded area.
Everyone make perception checks.
Tirnel can also make Knowledge Arcana and Spellcraft checks.
That felt....different. Need to find a place to rest.
Indeed Kieran. Similar to my spell or Kentaur's prayer, but with a very unique energy to it.
The party is in a small wooded area of rolling hills. Night is quickly falling and it seems sensible to set up camp for the night, everyone is exhausted from a very long day.
I'll get some wood.
Kieran begins to set up camp.
Tirnel just sits tiredly and thinks about the power of Ibram's blade.
Does it look the same as when we explored it?
I believe we are North of Fort Milo. We have been in this area before.
Tirnel looks up at Kentaur, We are close to whatever it is we call 'home' these days then. That is well. Perhaps we will have some time to collect ourselves before hunting down the next stone.
The night passes without incident. Actions the next day?
Probably best we head back to Olegstown. We have some things to sell and I would guess we would like to try and buy a few things before we set off after then next stone.
Tirnel will cast ~locate object~ to get a sense of where that next stone might be.
As well he casts his ~mage armor~ and ~greater false life~ .
Kentaur wakes up early to cast Visualization of Mind and Body on himself.
Tirnel gets the sense the next stone is currently to the north, not more than a couple days march.
Kentaur wakes everyone with his mystical muttering and gestures.
Kieran leads the party North towards Olegstown.
If the stone is on the way all the better, but I'm of a mind for a good hot meal and some drinks.
I for one would settle for sleeping in an actual bed for a night or ten. A bath for Kentaur would also be welcomed.
Kieran's sharp eyes spot a large group of trolls (8) moving through the trees about 60' ahead. They are more or less moving towards the party.
Party action.
TROLLS!
Kieran moves towards the trolls (5' step) and fires at the closest one:
Tirnel summons a on the troll Kieran attacked.
Are these Fey trolls?
Trolls are a subtype of giant humanoid, not fey.
Cast Weapon of Awe and advance
Cast Bless and advance
Kieran fells a troll with a grouping of arrows and Tirnel rolls his sphere over it burning the remains before it can regenerate.
The remaining trolls swarm forward, howling and shouting excitedly: “FRESH MEAT!”
Only one troll can get into position to attack each party member this round:

Ki

Kieran tries to take a position to take the strain off of Tirnel, firing on the troll attacking the feeble elf. That's OUR elf, monster!:
-13/65HP
Tirnel rolls the fire on the troll engaging him in melee . As well he casts ~stoneskin~ on himself.
As a swift action, activate Divine Bond - Flaming Burst
Kieran fills another troll full of arrows and Tirnel rolls his flaming sphere over it, burning it enough to keep it from coming back.
Ibram cuts down a troll with his suddenly burning blade, ending its life.
Kentaur bashes one wounding it, but he can see it already healing.
The trolls keep coming on but have a difficult time hitting the heavily armored party, with the exception of one blow landing on Kieran.
