It did not take long for word to spread around  the town quickly of the fallen priest and his evil plans. While they  townspeople were grateful to be rid of a villain, they still felt  uncertain to have no priest--no one to perform the daily rites; no one  to heal the sick, though, they had been unknowingly without that for  some time. After a half day's rest, they took up a hard march, trying to press  ahead before the day's light was lost. As they traveled through the  forest path which leads to the mine, they spotted a glowing light off in  the woods: Hellview. As they drew closer, they saw three rune-covered  stone monoliths, which formed a triangle around the cave entrance. The  pillars glowed with a very faint, greenish light. A thin, translucent  wall of energy extended from each of the stones, connecting each,  creating a pyramid shape with the cave centered inside.A gruff, etherial voice echoed in the forest. "Hmmm, yes. I believe that finally fate has sent  some worthy ones." The ghost of an old knight  appeared, wearing full armor and sporting long grey hair and a leathery,  but friendly, face. "Allow me to introduce myself. I am Sir  Alistair Glasston; at least, what remains. I was once a loyal member of  King Gillian’s court. But, alas, that was so long ago."His eyes fell on Carolina, and the old knight stepped forward, bowing on  one knee before her. "Well met young lady.  Never again did I think I would have the pleasure of beholding a beauty  so grand as yours." His ghostly hand moved to take hers, motioning to kiss her hand, but his  ethereal fingers passed right through her, sending a cold chill to her  bone.  "You must excuse a lonely old man," Sir  Glasston said. "If you be true and honorable, I  have a task of great import to place upon you."    [sblock=ooc]Don't forget, one of the leads had to due with something  similar...[/sblock][sblock=History DC 10 (rolled)]King Gillian sounds familiar.

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 <a href="http://www.enworld.org/forum/279849-adventure-lord-byrons-lost-silver-dm-tenchuu-judge-h-m-gimlord-3.html#post5241529" target="_blank">Hellview</a> (<a href="http://l4w.wikia.com/wiki/Allaria#Hellview" target="_blank">background        reference for players</a>).  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. [/sblock]</blockquote>
