After defeating the snake celebrant, the party reached a strange mass of darkness that led to the Abyss. Seeing the magic of Baphomet, the horned king and Torion's new liege, he entered. However, the darkness was a trap.
On the other end of the pocket dimension, the party found a tranquil beach with lapping waves. In the distance a crimson crescent formed a moon among a starless sky. After some time in surveying their surroundings, a pool of blood formed and a large demon appeared. Yeenoghu, Demon Lord of Gnolls came to meet the chosen of Baphomet.
The demon lord threatened Torion with death or servitude. However, after the minotaur reluctantly surrendered his pride and kneeled before the gnoll, the corrupted creature simply laughed and attacked anyway. During the battle, Thorry the Reckless laughed at the ridiculousness of the situation and tried to convince Torion to give in to the gnoll's demands.
Though they tried, the party succumbed to Yeenoghu's assault. The gnoll king cut off one of Torion's horns, crushed it into powder and sprinkled it on the fallen minotaur. The demon lord disappeared, bored of the party's weakness, and summoned his servants to finish the job and take the spoils.
Vanielle's goddess, Sehanine restored the party's lives, and allowed them to fight back against the gnolls. Though the battle was difficult and the party was outnumbered, they managed to defeat odds that were stacked against them. They defeated Gnoll War Fangs, Disciples of Yeenoghu, and a Chosen of Yeenoghu. After dispatching the enemies, the world shimmered like a mirage and they found themselves back in the temple.
