[QUOTE="Eccles, post: 1494313, member: 5675"] As a result of the number of [I]Rings of Sustenance[/I] which they had bought some time ago, hardly any of the group needed any sleep. The group had long ago forgotten how to tell time, and now decided that morning was whenever Aeron and Yvgeny, the two priests, had finished their prayers. The morning rituals nearly completed, the Clearwater Crusaders paused only to scoop the last of the gold into various sacks and magical bags before casting their regular array of morning spells. Aeron in particular caused the group to delay for at least a minute in the mornings, as he withdrew 5 wands from a bandanna around his waist, using them to cast protection spells upon himself against every known form of energy. Invigorated, and healed the previous evening, they strapped on bags, and prepared to set out. And then it happened. It felt as though something was crawling across their graves. In fact, as though that something were crawling [I]out[/I] of their graves entirely. A shudder passed each member of the group, as they felt something dark and shadowy cross their spirits. And none of them registered it, except the two priests who felt as though something was being torn from them. Regrettably, neither of them had the understanding of the magic involved to try to interpret it. "But you're a priest of [B]Mystra[/B]!" Yvgeny muttered at Aeron, who glared back at him. It took all of Halbrinn's considerable knowledge, and several [I]Detect Magic[/I] orisons to figure out what had happened. Something had just stripped away part of the positive energy plane's connection to the prime material, and that mystical space had been replaced with a strengthened negative plane. This would have the effect of bolstering the undead, and making healing or other positive spells extremely difficult for the two clerics. With no choice but to continue, the Clearwater crusaders hitched up their backpacks and carried on into the dark tunnels. [/QUOTE]
