The five volunteers begin to work themselves into a line.
At Voadam’s question Markus, startled, answers, “Is there anything that you as a group share, a common memory or another commonality?”
“Here,” Markus begins to pass out to the five a small vial of a green thick liquid, “Drink this but sit down first. It may have a bit of a kick."
As each takes their drink they understand why he said to sit it tastes like a strong liquor with quite the back side kick. Each of you feels your stomach flip as the drink hits your full stomachs.
Seifer and Chester seem to be just fine the vial has had no effect.
Zzerki, Voadam, and Eglath each of you after one minute feels light headed and fall to the floor. Each of you has a dream.
[sblock= Zzerki, Voadam, and Eglath]Through the blue smoke you begin to see a face with very angular features and very hard eyes. The image pans back, he is wearing a black and red robe that covers from his neck to his feet. As the image pans back you see that he is standing at the top of a very long staircase made completely of stone. There are two rather large dragon carvings that run from the top of the stairs to the bottom like grand handrails. The man begins to speak, “Now my followers we shall begin what we started so long ago. We shall summon Xiphid back from his banishment!” With a bright flash he begins to glow a bright red. Your view begins to pan you start to see the large group of followers you can make out 5 of the faces. And standing between these 5 faces you see 10 you know it is you and your compatriots, bound and gagged. Slowly the blue smoke begins to fill your vision again. The dream fades and you come back to the real world. [/sblock]
Each of you awakes finding that what felt like hours of time was but mere seconds. You find Brother Markus standing over you with a relieved face. “It should not have done that I apologize deeply for any pain I have inflicted.”

Voadam
Legend
Voadam rolls up from lying prone on the floor, his hand going to his head. "Its got a kick to it that does. I'll be wanting another. Aye, I got that same image, though it wasn't quite a memory. It was more like my spirit was floating in a scene and I could see what was going on. But I was not in my body and at one point I could see myself bound and gagged. The experience was a bit like I understand astral projection is supposed to work. The potion seems to work like hostile magic, your body will attempt to resist, you have to accept the magic for it to work into you."
Voadam shakes his head. "I should have disarmed that bandit earlier, I've a feeling I'll want a blade soon enough. Cultists, red and black robes, all of us trussed as if for a sacrifice to complete a summoning or freeing ritual, dragon carvings in stone. Then more mist. Any of you recognize that name? Brother Markus?"
