[QUOTE="S. Baldrick, post: 5106378, member: 24679"] [I]The following was recovered from a burned by mostly intact journal that was found in the debris field that was created when the top of the Freeport lighthouse (commonly referred to as "Milton's Folly") mysteriously exploded the night that it was to celebrate its grand opening. Prior to the explosion, a mysterious yellow sign briefly appeared in the sky over the Freeport harbor. This sign apparently drove a number of people to madness.[/I] Day 40: Night – We continue our search of the sunken temple of Yig. After fighting off shadows, we enter a room warded by a magical compulsion the kill anyone near you. I gain a book. The Way of Yig. The next room holds three shadowy serpent men and a ramp up. The next chamber holds a shadowy serpent prisoner. Answering its riddle I create life and also nourish it. I contain life and the future for some. I am first, although some say I came last. I am fragile, yet strong enough to hold precious cargo. What am I? (An EGG) After answering the riddle, the shadow serpent reveals the location of the Venom of the Serpent. It was found in a secret stash inside a statue not far from the cell. I also found an old Valossan journal stating concerns about worship of the Unspeakable one, and a chest with a shadow snake, 500 gold, 2 potions of cure moderate wounds, and 2 potions of lesser restoration. Kerishen drank both restoration potions to restore her strength and health. We encounter two shadow serpent folk who appear to have been arguing for eons.
