Update 31
[Temple of the Iron Queen - plot summary]
After Decker died to be with Butler, General Baalthazar decided he really wanted his daughter back. His new wife Rosa, the Prioress of the Queen of Hell made a deal with the devil queen. Decker would be brought back in exchange for Wenomir. Why Wenomir? Rosa thinks the Queen wants him for breeding stock, but it was never specifically revealed.
After a few attempts to kidnap Wenomir, Rosa finally succeeds in an ambush outside WATCHTOWER, but during the ambush, one of her imp mooks ran away. KR and DC tracked the mook and discovered it was Decker's friend Issi. While questioning the poor imp, who has the intelligence of a carrot, they found out where Wenomir was taken, and Issi was able to transport them to the temple using Rosa's teleportation circle. Terrowin, Elezibethele, and Dalabad went as well, which pretty much guaranteed Blood War violence.
The rescue party arrived just as the Iron Queen was summoned, and the aforementioned violence started right away. Baalthazar was nearly killed, but begged Issi to sacrifice the black goat to complete the ritual and summon Decker. Issi did so, but, well, he isn't exactly qualified to complete magic rituals. Instead of summoning Decker from the afterlife, it yoinked her from a different point in the time stream, when she was just a child. A real child, not just wearing a child's shape like she used to do. Though she apparently knows who KR and DC are, from conversations she's had with her older self.
The Queen agreed to release Wenomir in exchange for the party not murdering her General and Prioress. Since she was unable to return Decker to her place in the time stream, and Hell is no place for a little girl, she was sent with KR to go live at WATCHTOWER.
HT is aware that the plot has more holes than a cheese grater, but hopes the participants had fun. She had fun running it.
