Before leaving, Erynor cast discover door to search for a secret door as they exited the temple. Jergling and Varis used create pit to get past an obstacle once they found a secret door, uncovering a secret cache of treasure.
The party left the Temple of the Whispering Spider only to find the vanara monks slain by something. In their path was a samurai wearing blue armor. A shot from Varis knocked off his helmet revealing Shalash who was unable to acknowledge them. The party believed that he was summoning creatures from the forest to attack them. After defeating the monsters including a Hodag and a pair of Tatzylwyrms, they took down Shalash breaking the spell placed on him.
He had no recollection of what happened to him or how he got his weapons and armor. The undine tagged along to greet Kaliara at the Dragon Temple. However, when they reached the temple, there were corpses of monks and fighters strewn about, along with large spiders. The leader of the spiders is Lady Shezuo, a Jorogumo that was imprisoned in the Temple of the Whispering Spider.
For freeing her and her children, Lady Shezuo gave the party Kaliara, and told them to leave. They tried the potion that the Mercane gave them to the kitsune oracle but were unable to revive her. Believing Lady Shezuo was responsible, Rook tried to "diplomacize" with her but his words led to a battle due to his lack of tact.
Erynor, Rook, Varis and Jergling managed to slay many of the large spiders but they weren't able to damage Lady Shezuo. After Rook fell, the spider woman gave them a decision, either leave or Rook would perish. Erynor reluctantly took the deal, and as they were escorted out of the temple, Lady Shezuo bestowed a curse on the unconscious Rook.
