Today I got to be a part of an expedition to Alchemist's Folley organized by the mystic Neige. Our party gathered in the undine hut roughly 2 hours before midnight, then made our way through the narrow passage leading into the caverns. We had little difficulty getting through the narrow entry way, thanks to the fighting prowess of Kojiro and the healing powers of Dandelion, Tonto, and Prue.

The rest of the cavern was a breeze for our party, and we made it to the unopennable path in no time. Unfortunately, none of our party's 7 full pathfinders was able to open the path. I was unable to even *see* the path, despite this being my third visit to the path in recent months. After staring at the path for an hour or so, most of us returned to town, though Kiriel and Prue remained to stare at the path a while longer.

This was certainly a disapointing expedition for our party, but we've renewed our commitments to get this path open one way or another. I am seriously considering bringing along as many as 20 full pfs for our next expedition into AF. Surely, with that many pfs, at least one of us will be able to open the path!
