## Session 108 - Nhimbaloth's Gaze Revealed
The party learned crucial information about Nhimbaloth's connection to [[The Gauntlight]]:
- **Belcorra's Ritual**: Nhimbaloth once gazed upon The Gauntlight when [[Belcorra]] was going to unleash something. [[The Roseguard]] stopped her before she could complete her plan
- **Corruption Source**: The attention of Nhimbaloth has corrupted The Gauntlight, and the corruption intensifies the deeper you descend
- **Permanent Death Zone**: All living things that die from this effect in the corrupted area die permanently. It's as if all creatures have the *death* trait: when brought to 0 hit points and failing the death saving throw, death is permanent
- **Divine Knowledge**: [[Vayle]], [[Ashnefrotty|Ash]], and [[Grumblebum|Grumble]] all rolled natural 20s on religion checks to learn this information
