The [[Nautiloid]] in which this takes place is attacked by [[Githyanki]] warriors, allowing the main character to break free. While trying to escape the attacking Githyanki, the mind flayer controlling the ship warps it into different planes of existence, ending up in [[Avernus]], the first of the [[Nine Hells]]. The objective of the Prologue is to find a way out of the Nautiloid, ideally not by dropping down into Hell. | ||
