47 left Clerics of Istus 4th (Turned into a rat), 1st, 10th (hurt badly), 18th.
They head for home. Shzzt died recently, and his faithful servant Irving managed to grab the soul as it began it's rocketing, errorless journey home to Acheron. The lack of error and the speed was due to the killing of Shzzt via a FINGER OF DEATH spell by a Yugoloth named "Gerald". Irving takes the
"hand" of Shzzt's soul to lead him through the Astral. While travelling through the Astral Plane, Irving and Shzzt encounter Nerull, who asks for the soul of Shzzt, speaking as if Irving has "stolen from the harvest".
Irving speaks ancient words to allow free passage of Shzzt to his home plane. These words fade from Shzzt's mind quickly after they enter. Shzzt is brought to Hextor's estate in Acheron. He is brought before Hextor, who determines that because Tharizdun meddled directly in the affairs of men, that Hextor can and will do so as well. Shzzt must decide whether he wants to continue his existence on the Prime Material, since his purpose has not yet been fulfilled. There are prices to be paid however. He is required to give up one of his pursuits (but not fighter) to become a cleric of Hextor. Shzzt accepts, and gives up his use of Magic. Also, Shzzt loses two points of CON, one for the
death of his body, and the other for Irving, as payment.
Irving is given the choice of staying with Shzzt or going on, and Irving chooses to continue his work on the Prime Material in other ways. Irving and Shzzt agree to meet again in five years at the Golden Lamphrey in Lockmere.
Hextor then asks Shzzt to choose a time for his arrival back in his body on the Prime Material. Shzzt chooses to go back immediately. Hextor then gives Shzzt information about the Yugoloth and his demise and the interference of Tharizdun. Why all of this should be of such concern to Hextor remains to be seen.

17th Reaping
Gerald all cured up. Time to party!!! He takes on the form of Knopfler and makes plans to crash the wedding. He teleports into the courtyard of Castle Greyhawk, which is familiar to him. However, as Fate would have it (Perhaps Gerald should not have screwed around with the
clerics of Fate!) he teleports himself ten feet below the ground. His molecules mesh with those of the Oerth, and he is dead. His ka is transported back to the The Gray Wastes, where (information deleted).
