[[Commissioner Smedley]] emails [[Kaza (Reality Z-25 31-H)|Kaza]] and [[Gwenna (Reality Z-25 31-H)|Gwenna]] that [[Nerlana]], daughter of Kaza's old foe [[the Serpent Priest]], has been seen in the area. They resolve to investigate — but already, Nerlana, who is scheming with an other old enemy of Kaza's called [[Mitchell]], has revivled the [[Serpent Cult]] and penetrated the [[Temple of the Serpent God|old serpent temple]]. They are waiting for Kaza when he arrives; revealing that Kaza was wrong to think the old Serpent Priest a mere conman with no magical powers, Nerlana uses his hypnotic circlet to command snakes to swarm upon him and capture him. | [[Commissioner Smedley]] emails [[Kaza (Reality Z-25 31-H)|Kaza]] and [[Gwenna (Reality Z-25 31-H)|Gwenna]] that [[Nerlana]], daughter of Kaza's old foe [[the Serpent Priest]], has been seen in the area.
