- Desi and Raynar join the party to journey via the airship Icarus to the City of the Dead in Mulhorand.
- There, they penetrate the Hall of the Makers, and face Kara Zial, to retrieve the Orb and stop her mad designs.
- Upon returning Kara to Keket's temple and placing her in a medicinal coma, they set about planning to enter her mind to try to undo whatever madness made her sympathetic to the Shadovar.
- Using Imaskari dream-sharing technology, they merged their minds into one, and entered a shared dreamstate where they could explore Kara's subconscious by fooling her into believing she was dreaming alone.
- In discovering Kara's origin as the daughter of Mira Zial, The Pillar of Law of Deep Imaskar, they also discovered many interesting things about themselves.
- Kara reveals a vital secret: the Shadovar are having a little get-together at Zahl's place during the Highharvesttide festival. Also, they're building a giant machine on the Thaymount that will kill everybody and bring the Shadow into Toril.
- The group bands together with King Aleric, Raynar, and the Red Tide, a revolutionary group in Thay.
- The party infiltrates the Highharvestide Ball at the Empress' palace. They sway the opinions of her privy council, and ultimately Zahl herself.
- The trap is sprung! Zahl attempts to kill the Shadow Lords by destroying the Nightmare Shard. However, Raynar spoils the plan, causing them to retreat into the portal...then tossing the shard in with them, and shooting it to pieces.
- The party activates the machine, but in reverse, causing a massive wave of energy to pulse throughout the entire east. The Shadow Master is pleased.
