Quest for the Tomb
Prelude
- In the sewers below the city of Dariad:
- "Nice troll, put the nice soldier down and you get a treat."
- "HARrGle!
- Below the Monastery of St. Charles:
- "Well that's unique, I wonder where that holes goes."
- "Heh, heh, its full of stars!"
- "O' good a volunteer"
- "Huh?"
- "Their you go you howling fool."
- "Yahhhhhh!"
- At the Cear Dram Ogg:
- "As soon as the troops arrive we push for the tomb, let all who would stand in out way be slaughtered, the ogers will feast well on the fallen."
- Aboard a Black ship on the Bitter sea.
- "So the western shore will be the new proving grounds."
- "Yes, the humans living on the old grounds have gained too many allies, the homeland itself would be threatened if we started a real war."
- "So now we start all over again, conquering the barbarians, and then building them up for the next generation to fight."
- "It will be entertaining to watch."
Player's Perspective
A little nosing around and some timely hints revealed the tomb was on an island just off the coast. The group made it to the island quicker than shit through a goose and set about exploring.
They found a strange maze made of ice, stone and invisible walls. They decided that rather than map it or anything foolish, they'd just always turn left, kind of like a timid Brit at the wheel. They managed to cover every square inch of the maze, but never set off a single trap.
They made their way to the center four times, each time unlocking a different lock. When they finally unlocked the fourth, they were able to enter the burial place of Shar where they found, to no one's surprise, the Gauntlet of Shar still on his wrist.
Entering the chamber set off all the traps in the maze, but since they'd encountered every single one of them and disarmed it, they failed to release the monsters who should have prevented their escape.
They found the Gauntlet and a cursed sword, but the gauntlet was able to reverse the curse and make it a beneficial item. Things were looking good, so they decided to pursue the Dragon Bone Bow.
