[QUOTE="kinem, post: 6237273, member: 24234"] Menik explains [COLOR="#FFA07A"]"Once we fought our way in, we found what appeared to be one of the ancient gates. I think it was one of the ancients but I can't yet be certain, because this gate was malfunctioning. Rather than act as a fixed portal to another gate, it showed a variety of places, many no doubt on the elemental planes but not all. Once we even saw the inside of this tavern. We tried tossing something through, but it didn't work. Instead, energy from the planes was leaking through to our side. That's what summoned the elementals and the storm, and it even animated some undead which we found already re-slain. We found notes written by the guy who'd been experimenting with the gate. There was a formula to close the gate. We judged the gate too dangerous to leave it as it was, so we began the ritual. That's when the gnome and his pet monster popped in. Seeing that we were taking away his toy, they attacked us. We slew them in self-defense. You won't find much of his remains - his monster's lightning breath blew him away and nearly was the death of me as well. Once I completed the ritual, the gate deactivated and the storm began to dissipate. I don't know if it can ever be re-opened, fixed. I still have the gnome's notes. It would be a long and difficult project which I myself have neither the knowledge nor the time for, though I would be happy to help out. A new gate so close to town would be a boon to trade. More importantly, it would be a chance to bring the ancient art of gate making back to the modern day. Of course, any reckless dabblers like the gnome was must be kept away from the project, if it is ever undertaken."[/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
