but察yes察there are always more soldiers察always more mages察and there is Bregan D'aerthe and other mercenaries。 If the lich kills Gromph I certainly won't let him rampage through the rest of Menzoberranzan turning our citizens to stone and smashing the architecture。;
   ;Why not send those forces in now拭
   Triel shrugged again and considered the question。 She had no answer。
   ;I don't know察─Triel said finally。 ;Maybe I'm waiting for a sign from´;
   She was back。
   Triel fell to the floor察her body going limp察her head spinning察her mind exploding in a cacophony of sound and shadow察voices and screams。 Tears welled up in her eyes so she could only barely see Wilara lying in a similar confused察twitching察limp state on the floor across the room。
   The Matron Mother of House Baenre felt every emotion she'd ever known simultaneously and at their sharpest and most intense。 She hated and loved察feared and cherished察laughed and cried。 She knew the endless expanse of the limitless multiverse and saw in crystal detail the square inch of marble floor right in front of her eye。 She was in her scrying chamber and in the Demonweb Pits察in her mother's womb and in the smoldering Bazaar察in the deepest Underdark and flying through the blazing skies of the World Above。
   She took a deep breath察and one feeling after another fell away察each a layer of confusion and insanity。 Pieces of her mind began to function again察then pieces of her body。 It took either a few minutes or a few years´Triel couldn't be sure how long´for her to realize what had happened and sort through the sensation that had been so familiar all her life察then was gone察then returned。
   Lolth。
   It was the fickle grace of the Queen of the Demonweb Pits。
   Triel didn't try to stand at first but lay there and stretched察luxuriating in the wash of power察exulting in the return of Lolth。
   
   Gromph knew of so many ways to kill someone察he'd forgotten more than most drow ever heard of。 There were spells that would kill with a touch察kill with a word察kill with a thought察and Gromph searched his mind for precisely the right one as he ran to both avoid the rampaging gigant and keep it contained in the ruined Bazaar。
   He wore the skull sapphire that gave him even more choices and afforded him protection from negative energy´like Nimor's enervating breath。 In his memory he stored a few more察and in time Gromph settled on one spell察with some input from Nauzhror and the small circle of Sorcere necromancers。 The archmage gathered the Weave energy within him and brought the words and gestures of the incantation to mind。 However察in order to cast the spell´and it was a powerful spell indeed´the archmage would have to stop running。
   It wasn't the first time that the battle with Dyrr came down to timing。 Would he have enough time to cast the spell before the gigant rolled over him
   We can help you choose your moment察Nauzhror said。
   I know察Gromph answered察but there are always。 。 。 variables。
   The archmage stopped running察turned察and began his casting。
   The gigant looked down at him察bathing Gromph in the light from its mad blue eyes。 Gromph was sure he had time。 The animated察petrified drow were too far away and moving too slowly to be of any concern察and the gigant had been slapping its tail around the Bazaar at random察as if Dyrr had little control over his new body。 Gromph trusted in that。
   He was wrong。
   One set of trigger words from pleting the spell察the enormous black tail of the blackstone gigant rolled over him。 Gromph felt the words stop in his throat and felt his joints stiffen then nothing。
   
   Triel stood and looked from scrying device to scrying device察trying to sort out what she was hearing。 The magically transmitted voices of a hundred mages察priestesses察and warriors filled the air in an incoherent tangle of confusion and undisguised bliss。 The doors of the scrying chamber burst open察and a priestess whom Triel recognized but whose name she couldn't instantly recall staggered into the room。 Tears streamed down her black cheeks察and her mouth worked in silent察incoherent attempts to put into words what she察Triel察Wilara察and every other servant of the Queen of the Demonweb Pits all across the endless expanse of the multiverse had experienced。
   The matron mother's attention fell on one image此Gromph察petrified。
   He had lost。 The lich察in its freakish monster form察had turned the Archmage of Menzoberranzan to stone。
   Triel felt her jaw tighten then she stood for a moment察letting the anger wash through her。
   ;Is this a sign拭─she asked the Spider Queen。
   Lolth didn't answer察but Triel knew she could if she wanted to。
   ;It's a sign察─the matron mother whispered。
   Triel pressed her fingertips together察bent her neck in a slight bow察and willed herself to the Bazaar。 There was a momentary feeling of upside down weightlessness察a black void察then she was standing in a deep crack in the stone floor of her city's marketplace。 The blackstone gigant reared up high above her察apparently having sensed her passage through the dimensions from House Baenre to the Bazaar。 The creature opened its mouth to roar at her察but Triel spoke a few words察and it froze。 The great察thrashing tail came to a sudden stop。 It was as if time itself had taken a moment's pause。 Smoke still rose around her察and the animated stone drow lumbered on。
   ;This has gone on long enough察lich察─Triel said察 all of it。 I will have no more dead drow察no more of my city ruined察no more challenges to my power or to the power of Lolth。;
   Triel doubted the lichdrow could understand her。 He seemed to have been subsumed by his adopted form察but she said it to everyone she knew was listening in察from House Baenre察Arach´Tinilith察Sorcere察and perhaps beyond the city into the mand tents of her enemies。
   She called directly upon Lolth察beseeching the restored goddess for her most potent spell察asking for nothing less than a miracle。
   Lolth didn't answer in a drow's voice as she had in the past。 There were no words察only a feeling察a swelling of power察a rush of blood in the matron mother's ears。
   Triel sank to her knees amid a scattering of rough gravel and broken glass and pressed her forehead to the cool ground。 She didn't express her desires in words。 She didn't have to。 What she was working was a wave of emotion察of feeling察of pure fear。
   The terror of Lolth herself blasted out in all directions at once察in an expanding circle of fear with Triel at its center。 All across the City of Spiders察drow stopped in their tracks察fell to their knees察or lay prone。 Some leaned against walls or collapsed on stairs察but all of them knew the purest fear察the fear of a goddess察the fear of the eternal察the fear of chaos察the fear of darkness察the fear of the unknown察the fear of the certain察the fear of treason察and a thousand other horrors that brought the city to a full stop。
   The blackstone gigant trembled and broke apart。 Triel察still kneeling below it察didn't dodge the falling black boulders察the pieces of the titanic construct察which disappeared before they hit the ground。 Within seconds all that was left of the rampaging creature was the lichdrow察stunned察reeling察kneeling on the crumbling floor of the Bazaar a few paces in front of the matron mother。 The animated statues stopped moving and stood frozen in place。
   The wave of fear moved onward察past the walls of the city's vault and into the crowded approaches to the Underdark beyond。 It passed through the duergar lines察overtook the retreating tanarukks察and blindsided the scattered illithid spies。 It affected all of them in different ways察but it affected all of them。 By the time it was done´and it didn't take long´there was no question察anywhere察that Lolth was back。
   Triel stood and surveyed the damage。 She looked down at Dyrr and knew she could simply step over to him and kill him with a thought´or at least a dagger blade across his undead throat´but she didn't。 Killing the lich was someone else's job。
   The matron mother stepped to the rigid察calcified form
