[QUOTE="Dantardis, post: 3184640, member: 46174"] The old observatory was silhouetted against the pale moonlight. It looked in very good repair, considering it had been abandoned years ago. In the topmost window, high up in the tower a single flickering light appeared to glow. Realising that the only way into the tower was through the front door, T'cral tried the handle and was surprised to find it was open. "Watch out", he said, "this could be a trap." "You worry too much, always seeing menace in your own shadow.", snorted Raymond in response, opening the door as he did so. "See, nothing to worry about", he continued. "Just a set of stairs leading up with some sort of cupboard beneath them." As Raymond said this there was explosion of wooden creatures and a dark coloured creature leapt out at him. It appeared to consist of mainly teeth and fur. The creature leapt onto Raymond and clawed him mercilessly. "I recognise this thing,it's a tomb mote. It's undead, I'll try to turn it", said Retaract, praying to Oiden. The creature wavered and ended up cowering in one corner, Advale and T'cral moving in to finish it off, while Retaract cured Raymond's wounds. "Maybe that'll teach you not to be so impulsive, my friend.", said Advale in an admonishing tone. "This tower is dangerous." Moving silently up the tower the party came to a bedchamber which appeared to be full of treasure and notes. Helping themselves to the treasure, T'cral also noted a note written by Balabar Smenk to a character called Filge to investigate an onset of green worms. A specimen in a jar would appear to have been the item in question. Raymond found a stairway leading up and the party followed it. "Get ready", said Advale. "I sense that our quarry is at hand." Opening a trapdoor in the ceiling, the party came face to face with Filge and a group of undead. Retaract was able to turn two of them and the party was able to defeat the rest easily. Even though the necromancer Filge threw a few bad spells against them the party soon managed to convince him to surrender. After divesting him of any weapons and treasure T'cral questioned Filge. Filge revealed to them that he had been summonned to Diamond Lake to investigate an outcrop of green worms by one Balabar Smenk, a local mine owner. In return Filge had been allowed to practice his necromantic arts. T'cral and the others handed Filge over to the local authorities and then decided what to do. They all trained to new states of readiness and sold and purchased items. Then there was only one bittersweet duty to perform. Taking the bodies of Alastor Land and his family the party reinterred them in the family plot. --------------------------END OF SESSION ONE------------------------------------------ [/QUOTE]
