The Archivist

The party fought ancient robots running on olive oil. The bracelet was identified as work of The Star Scorpion Guild, revered gilded astral elves at the core of astral elf myth. Taz'Or Ka, telepathic after eating robots, talked two "muscle-fish" with pets out of a fight. Below, they found the Archivist, twisted, in a room walled with black ichor and attended by two snake-like creatures. Taz'Or Ka saved a child from the ichor wall, the party killed the Archivist and his companions, and The Corruption receded. They were paid and reached level 4.
