After dropping the last zombie, the adventurers secure the area. Wheel barrels filled the back of the tunnel, which ends abruptly, as their work was interrupted. It appears the zombies were being used as slaves to dig a tunnel, but for what purpose?
In the portal room, the planar portal shimmered and cast long shadows off the adventurers. It was murky, and did not give them much of a view of the other side. But as they drew closer, the portal seemed to tug at them, trying to pull them in. Taking a step back to a safe distance, they discussed their options.
So far, there was no sign of the Axe. It must be on the other side of the portal.

Summary of Events
1. Bested Pirates en route to Allaria. Traveled on the ship
Wind's Will captained by
Captain Levenbrech, and mated by
Porse and
Trig.
2. Arrived in the port, to find it besieged by Lizards from the unending mire. Defeated lizards and met/teamed up with Charina.
3. Journeyed to Geardagas and asked the locals for information with mixed results (
link to the leads gathered).
4. Went to the temple of Netari, where the new priest,
Father Niris, has been tending to the ill (apparently quite poorly). He led the players into the catacombs, where his zombie minions ambushed. The priest, over confident, rambled on about
Hellview (
background reference for players).
5. Dealing a mortal blow to the Priest, he says
Master De Luccia (First time they have heard the name) cannot be stopped, and he stated that Greggor "
will be... among the first... at Hellview." The priest laid dying on the floor with his fallen minions.
6. As they approach Hellview, they encounter the ghost of
Sir Alistair Glasston, who begged them to enter the cave and retrieve his lost battleaxe.
7. They entered Hellview, and came across a portal, as well as some guards/workers. It seems they were using zombies to dig a new path near the portal... but where?
