[QUOTE="Imperialus, post: 6594123, member: 893"] Climent shrugs as he bends down and retrieves his dagger from the dwarfs corpse. [color=blue]"There are all manner of spells that might affect the mind of a man, for good or ill. Some last but a moment, others can bind its victim for months or years. You are right to suspect sorcery, though I cannot agree with you with certainty."[/color] He then crouches over the pool and dips the tip of his dagger into the black ooze, letting it drip back into his source. [color=blue]As for azoth... Well, it is the true treasure of Dwimmermount, and the source of it's power, and the power of those who have controlled the fortress. According to texts that date back to Thulian times the void between the celestial spheres is filled with a strange and mystical vapour called quintessence. Somehow, for reasons I do not know this quintessence once rained down on earth. Upon reaching the ground it transformed into what you see here."[/color] he gestures at the pool [color=blue]"As for the Azoth itself, I'm sure you probably know that it is highly valuable, even essential, for all manner of dewomers and enchantments.
