The party escapes a Dao’s poisoned pagoda, solves a shifting hedge maze through gems and vector logic, and finally reaches Veyr’s tower, where an ogre butler ushers them inside to await the mysterious wizard.

The party follows clues to a memory-shrouded wizard’s tower near Greenest, only to become trapped in an enchanted hedge maze where time, space, sight, and even victory against its re-forming stone guardians refuse to behave.
