[QUOTE="the Jester, post: 906531, member: 1210"] [b]prologue to the Nigh-Epic-Level Return to the Temple of Elemental Evil![/b] First they scry Lardo Princehold. "Perfect," Sheva gloats, and the Eye [i]greater teleports[/i] the party into his office, where he's having sex with his young human secretary on his desk. He squawks, caught literally with his pants down, and she shrieks. The lovers scramble apart, papers spilling from the desk onto the floor. "He made me!" the girl cries, her voice quaking in fear as she stares at the stern-looking people who've just appeared from nowhere. "Get out of here, honey," says Horbin to the girl after a moment's study under [i]detect evil.[/i] She scurries. "Who are you people?" Lardo shouts. He's a half-orc of relative handsomeness, but sweaty and fat. He's short for a half-orc, just 5' 6" in height; his skin is a dark brownish-green. "Shut up," Sheva says, pulling out Chronovestis. The huge blade gleams in the light of the lantern on the wall. The half-orc flinches back and shuts up. *** A little while later, after questioning, warning and thoroughly frightening Lardo, who was nothing more than a petty princeling influenced by the chance to make money by trading with the forces of the Temple, our heroes return to Var. "Well, I think it's time," states Horbin. "Let us rest first, and make preparations, and plan," says Orbius. "I must make certain I have the proper spells; I've already used my [i]greater teleport.[/i]" Rest they do, and then they discuss targets. "The Champion of Elemental Evil," suggests Sheva. "We can't take Felenga yet, but we were instructed to destroy the Champion some time ago." "Before they assassinated me*," Orbius says ironically. "But yes, I think he's a good target. Lareth." The Eye chuckles. "Let's kill him back." The party agrees. Then they power up, casting a horde of buffing and defensive spells. Orbius casts [i]greater scrying[/i] and searches out Lareth; he's sitting in a throne in some sort of large evil-looking temple. Our heroes attack. *If you'll recall, [url=http://enworld.cyberstreet.com/showthread.php?s=&postid=721071#post721071]Turfi and Lendivo, two aerial creatures sent by the Champion of Elemental Evil, assassinated Orbius[/url] a while back.
