5/18/05 - The Hunt for Alantha Chath

Post by Venture » Wed May 18, 2005 9:23 pm

Zastaph pondered the halfling’s offer, and ultimately departed with him, promising to return as soon as possible. You thus continued on without him, encountering more Thun-foul, and eventually finding Malock. Malock seemed a bit crazed, attacking you without bantering. You defeated him and his Thun-foul, employing some strong tactics.

Among his belongings, you found the head of the Avengress statue, a gem, and a book talking of a dead boatman on a T’lithin Lake, who could travel to Woodvale. The book also spoke of a gem that allowed the island to be located. Perhaps this was the gem you found?

Image

On your way out of the crypt, you were attacked by a skilled halfling. He screamed shouts of vengeance for his brothers, evidently the halfling’s you had killed earlier. Evidently a skilled shadowdancer, he repeatedly attacked and disappeared. You never did catch him, ultimately leaving the tomb.

On the hillside of Karom’s Fall, you found a burial crypt for the Thun-foul. Within, you came across an elf from Lindalas’ homeland. The elf searched for a gem that was said to be in the pommel of the great evil that had awakened in the land. He was startled when you told him that the dagger was in the hands of the drow, and rushed away to warn his people.

Image

You then returned to Pilgrims’ Rest, and to the gratitude of Jolor the Thankful and the other pilgrims, who were all thankful at the return of the statue’s head, and at your success in clearing the crypt. You did not have time to tarry, though, saying your goodbyes and continuing on your way.

After a few days’ travel, you reached the Stillwood. There, you encountered the acolytes of the Faceless One, and their leader, Reth Wrathcore. Their wagon appeared to be broken down, and they had taken all they could carry. After preaching the word of their deity, they set off, but Miguel attacked them. Reth slipped away, but the acolytes fell.

You then returned to Ransar, and have made your way to the tower of Gedoron Supris. There, you are speaking with Ged’s condescending apprentice, Lomyril, who has told Lindalas that T’lithin Lake is the old name for Lake Derek, the lake named after Derek Hocholve, king of the Woodland elves. You now stand before Lomyril, with perhaps other questions on your mind.

Did you find the scrap of paper stuck in the crate that the Faceless One acolytes left behind? If so, I will post the test of it here.

With their wagon broken, the acolytes of the Faceless One packed up as much as they could carry. Evidently, in emptying their crate, a piece of paper was torn. The shred left behind and stuck in the crate (and found by Skotch) contained a few words of what was a longer document. The portion on the shred reads as follows:

" . . . should be preserved enough to make a worthy heart. The vessel might be found in Karom's Land, beyond World's End, where the end came."
