Notes
We are getting welcomed by archeologists. They are investigating the temple. Laysa an elf greats us. They have symbols of an arch of seven stars. She explains that there are scavengers that went in the temple and never came back. There is a face entrance. They have had a small map created of the first rooms of the temple but haven't.
There have been a knight that might have become a lich. Accompanied by a lizardfolk. Might this be Nif asks Raxlin.
Laysa wants help. She came from here. And she was searching for the village. They have found 6 pieces of treasure that was stolen
- Ebony wand decorated by bones and feathers
- Ring of goldens stars
- Serpant scimitar
- Set of copper tablets
- Crystal Orb
- Blue Silk Sashe
She promises us money or knowledge.
The 3 entrances left to right
- Fire Trap
- Might be the actual entrance. Might be a spike trap
- Arrow Trap
She has not seen a piece of the Rod of Seven Parts. But maybe other companions know more.
With the help of people here they make a drawing of the lizardfolk they have seen. Gribkoan confirms this is Nif. Raxlin uses his crystal ball to scry on her. She looks weak. Chained. And still in the same room from the vision. It's a room with 1 door and barred window that is locked in the door.
Iro uses Commune and asks some questions
- Is Nif on this island
- Yes
- Is the lich someone we know
- Yes
- Is a Rod piece on the island
- Yes (at least 5 of them in my hand)
Raxlin causes dream on Nif
She is dreaming of a cave. With all kind of glass pieces reflecting all colors of light. A lich is seen weaving power to create an orb around himself. It changes everything into dust.
2 priests (elf and orc) Talo and Vogeren , priest of Celestia. They know nothing about the Rod of Seven Parts. The souls on this island don't think kindly of strangers. You should give them attention.
Marian is reading and Gribkoan asks her about the lich. Vragmod was his name. Vecna destroyed him. His phylactery used to be some silver canister. She seems interested in us going into the temple.
She tells Gribkoan
Secret: Marian likes necromancy and likes to be a lich as well
Gribkoan wakes up in great hunger. But without knowing he charging dead bodies and eats them in no time. Iro notices him and follows him. He shouts him awake but a bit late. Most of the dead bodies are gone in seconds. We have a fight. And the archeologists ask us to leave.
Iro asks again via commune.
- is the left most entrance the best entrance to get to Nif
- No
- IS the middle entrance the best entrance to get to Nif
- Yes
- Do we have to go through the face at the end of the wall to get to Nif
- No
Raxlin uses his fly ability to get down in the pit and he sees a tunnel leading to a dead end with 7 casks. Ymir goes down too. She sees the same symbol
6 drinks are magic
1 is mundane
stars are vitalities bane
blue is nither blessing nor curse
mone clensis you of ealness or worse
green neighbor is never boring
drink deep pass through the flooring
Gribkoan takes a swig of the red square. And changes into a cloud. We managed to go down. There are 8 arches of a silvery vail.
N Transported to a grassy field with a stary night sky
NE Ends into the triangular room
E 7 you end in closet of library
SE 4 gets you to a hallway
S 5 big room with 2 construct rollers
SW 6 is back to the casks room
W you end up in closet of library
NW you end up in a forest
Eventually Gribkoan and Ymir go through door 4. Raxlin and Iro stay in the 8 sided room but Raxlin followes the movement of Gribkoan and Ymir through the place.
There is a skeleton
Further up statue with the text "This wave is green"
There are gems in the walls
Further there is a acid pit with a bridge that is narow that has 4 pufs of air trying to blow you off Iro falls off when he and Raxlin join back up.
Next room we see 3 statues
- half woman / serpant with 6 sword
- 2 Cobra jade statues
When we enter the room the statues spring to live and attack.
Ymir gets totally fucked in 1 round. But we manage to pull through.
We won!
