[QUOTE="Raunalyn, post: 6009756, member: 72670"] [b]Dark Sun: The Liberation of Raam Part 1[/b] To consolidate their power, and to gather a fighting force, the party decides to contact another of the noble houses. After their brief encounter with Maarham, they decided that Nawab Vishna would be the best person to deal with. Since M'Ke was on the west side of Raam, and Vishna is on the east (the direction that the Sorcerer King of Draj would be approaching from), then they were hoping that by allying themselves with Vishna would put pressure on Maarham to assist them with the the coming battle. Arriving at Vishna Manor, the party notices several curious things. The land surrounding the manor is riddled with strange pits and holes that the Vishna slaves are slowly filling in. Also, the slaves themselves are listless and unresponsive. Before they are able to investigate, however, the party is intercepted by Vishna guards and escorted to the manor. Within the manor, the party is led to the Vishna leader, a dwarf named Urdon-Mor. The dwarf informs the party that he is not interested in negotiations and that they should immediately leave. Kratas immediately senses that something is wrong and informs the group telepathically. Urdon-Mor sends his guards in to force the party to leave. As they are leaving, Kratas continues to tell the party that the Vishna leader is possibly being coerced when he discovers that his mental conversation has an eavesdropper...a very powerful psionic mind. Immediately, the guards attack. One of them changes into a strange, worm-like creature known as a Psurlon. Soon, a larger creature erupts from the ground and stuns the group, and they are forced to fight for their lives. Rightly assuming that the leader of the manor is being coerced, the party decides to free him. Rushing further into the manor, they are ambushed by another group of guards, as well as a horrid, twisted abomination. While fighting off the guards and the abomination, the party sees another group of guards, led by another Psurlon, rush the melee. This was an extremely difficult fight, and several of the party members nearly died (Dryder was dropped below 0 hitpoints ar one point). Pa Mela has her work cut out for her, desperately healing the group as fast as she can. As she heals Dryder, he stands up, attacking the Psurlon leader...and crits. In one hit, he nearly kills the Psurlon, who immediately shouts a surrender, even as his mental slaves are freed from their domination. The Lord of the manor demands the death of this creature, who had enslaved his entire household. He thanks the party, offering them a small reward for their bravery, and agreeing to their alliance. The Psurlon, though, begs for his life, offering something very valuable to the party. "I have no wealth or magic to offer you," it says, "but something far more valuable than material possessions. I can offer you knowledge...knowledge of your future." He offers to answer three questions about the party's future. Once his word is given, Kratas knows that the creature must speak the truth. The day is now the 6th day of Morrow, in the Season of High, in the Year of Guthay’s Defiance, 190th King's Age. In the skies above, the comet known as the Messenger can be seen. [/QUOTE]
