-
#30 - We find another undead beholder beneath the Guts & Garters
-

-
#25 - We destroy the Blood-Eye outpost and the undead beholder without any evidence of mind flayer infestation
-
- #23 Per Rex, his companions Copper_Stormforge and Midna_Tauberth were last seen fleeing from an undead beholder in Nadia_the_Unbent's territory
- #24 Copper_Stormforge found to have an Intellect Devourer infestation during the Battle of the Goblin Market.
- This pretty much means Midna Tauberth has one too
- WHAT IS THE LINK BETWEEN NADIA AND THE INTELLECT DEVOURERS?
