The End of All Songs

Note: This entry is higly summarized as the notes for the session were inadvertently lost and the session is being reconstructed from memory.

The heroes made ready to "welcome" the vile Tereshkova and laid ambush for him.

Tereshkova had rigged the caverns with explosives, turning the stalactites into lethal weapons, but fortunately did not manage to actually inflict any harm on either the party or the Selenites that had universally rebelled against Tereshkova's tyranny.

Tereshkova fled deeper into the system of caves, hotly pursued by the heroes, then crossed the rope bridge tghe team had spotted when first decending the gorge.

On the other side they found a "gate" that opened into some sort of alternative universe, albeit one whose caverns were very much circumcscribed compared to the Luna the team had landed upon so many days before.

Inside that space they found the body of Forsyth's brother, along with a letter of farewell. He had succombed to hunger and thirst some weeks before it seemed.

Re-entering the original cavern system the heroes confronted Tereshkova and his terrible Freeze Ray, and after much struggle were victorious, killing the mad Russian despot.

Returning to their craft Grant was able to effect repairs and the team were able to return to Earth.
