The main character, now infected with a [[Mind Flayer]] tadpole, is aboard the ship the [[Nautiloid]] when it is attacked by [[Githyanki]] warriors. While trying to escape the attacking Githyanki, the mind flayer controlling the ship warps it through different planes of existence, ending up in [[Avernus]], the first of the [[Nine Hells]].
