Against Al Mansur and Friends

After returning from our awesome Demogorgon fight we are visited by Baqir and Raheesh. They give us the skinny on Al Mansur, his lich pal Ibrahim, and the lich's girlfriend, Alferad. Seems that the lich has Solomon's Table, a magical gameboard that lets you mess with your enemies. We decide to help them free the Caliph, but first we open our efreet bottle for some wishes. Harald wishes Afaf back to life, removes his geasa regarding not killing Jon Seoum, King of Abyssinia, and wishes for information that will help us get the Caliph free. We get some good intel, including the location of the Caliph (the Alhambra), and a bunch of info on Solomon's Table. We prep a bunch, including the totally useless casting of a lot of Nondetection. We try to Teleport near Al Mansur's palace, but end up in a Wall of Force instead. We try to Teleport out, but end up leaving Ailyll behind in the bubble. Al Mansur, Qadir, Ibrahim and Alferad all show up, and we fight. Qadir ironically gets assassinated by Zulfaqar in round one, but then things go south for our heroes. Harald ends up summoning the Phoenix to save our bacon, which it does hanidly. Harald is mad because Ibrahim and Alferad escape after Harald cuts off all but one of Ibrahim's limbs, and we do get ahold of the Table and Alferad's magical harp of sleep. It's like a welcome back present for Afaf! Now we just have to figure out the Table's command word, and finish off Al Mansur.
