Tuckras woke up while they were recovering, and they worked out a plan to take on the troglodytes. He was also really excited about the chance to see the fish priest, which he suspected was a kuo toa. Back in the smaller chamber, they found that a couple of troglodytes had moved ahead and camouflaged themselves for another ambush. Despite this, however, they went down fairly quickly.
To keep from being surrounded again, they had Jinso go out to pick a fight while they waited in the tunnel. In the narrow hallway, the troglodytes had to fight one at a time. The troglodytes were sitting around the priest while it chanted in some fishy language which no one could understand. Apart from Jinso's momentary temptation to abandon the plan and run off into the cavern, it went as planned.
Advancing again into the now troglodyte-free cavern, they found the kuo toa standing alone. Undaunted by their numerical advantage, it proceeded to lecture them in fish-speak, gesticulating emphatically as it did so, and occasionally throwing in a random thunderclap by waving its staff. Violence eventually broke out, at which point the priest called up its pet, a giant crayfish, from the pool. They still killed the kuo toa and wounded the crayfish enough that it fled into the underground stream. The kuo toa had some goodies. There were lots of tunnels branching away.
And that's the end of the notes. Next, they wandered through a portal to the Feywild, completely skipping the rest of the cave complex. After some poking around, they found their way to Castle Amber. They explored quite a bit of that before the campaign stalled out.
