The Void brings Eles home

We face some kind of void/space dragon?! Whatever it is, it's SCARY.
We all hear a voice in our heads say "You guys are not supposed to be here. I'm going to extract you. I'm giving you advanced warning" but the voice sounds different to all of us:
Dara: sounds like her mother
Merrli: his sister
Manny: Hops
Eles: One of her mothers, Elsinore
 
We try to hit the dragon, to little success. Eles tries to banish it, but homegirl is CHARISMATIC!
There is some wibbly air waves, emanating from the dragon. Some kinda magic, a gravitational magic
 
Dara and Eles go down
"I warned you, let's take this somewhere more comfortable" (We're going to the Shadowed Sanctuary aren't we?)
 
everyone within 2k, hear Dorath's booming voice, one-footed on the embankment yelling out, "We fight not for our fear, but freedom. We fight for our honorable death" or something like that.
 
Merrli grabs Dara and dimension doors away. Manny and Eles are together near the void dragon. We all resist the "call of the void" fucking THANKFULLY. Even Dara. We pop several kilometers over the ground. 4 of us plus Dorath, Umstrek, Tiny and Cragcloak.
After absolutely freaking out and losing our collectinve SHIT, Eles (her puppetmaster) remembers that she has her necklace that casts Wind Walk.
"Why here?" don't know why that was important for me to write down
"Do you think I planned to go to hell, Do you think I did that on purpose Tiny?
"Did you get her pregnant?" Tiny, to Dara, about Umstrek lol
 
Eles thinks to stay in Wind Walk to explore the non-aligned with us part of the Sanctuary.
War in the Shadowed Sanctuary.
The Great-Grandmother was corrupted by Asmodeus
The Raven Queen was technically created by Asmodeus, but did not want to follow.
2/3rds of the Sanctum went with the great-grandmother, Yanef leads the other 1/3rd
floating through the air, dropping people off, but Merrli has a problem entering the sanctuary.
The Sanctuary is designed to keep out; a. undead b. those with malicious intent and/or c. those specifically against the Raven Queen.
-Just occurring to me now, if all that's the case, how was the great-grandmother corrupted. Was there a loophole with Asmodeus?
Eles casts dispel magic on Merrli's amulet (or was it Manny?)
 
We hike into the Sanctuary. The War room is in another great-grandmother's mausoleum
Take a short rest to get Guatir back
 
"Matron damn it" is a great expletive.
 
Merrowliths are demi-gods (Don't remember why that's particularly relevant)
 
Merrli doesn't like Yanef. "I ALSO got a new role for the Matron"
I catch up with Yanef a little and WISH I had written more down.
 
We're going to a secondary shrine for Merrli. He touches the amulet, and we all have to make a dex save. Eles passes, no one else does (A little poetic, no?)
26 religion check- Merrli feels his power being stripped away-not a good feeling. Coming to life in a bad way, in immense pain because he's been dead for a bazillion years.
Another dex save as Merrli becomes MERRLINIUM!!
We see the spider tendrils ash away on the amulet, there is a diamond underneath.
Merrli is unconscious for 8 hours, we all get a long rest. (I think Yanef and Eles would talk more, because they only trance)
