[QUOTE="Eccles, post: 3127168, member: 5675"] We freed him from the sarcophagus, and worked our way back to the room ringed with coloured lanterns. As we marched towards the entrance way, there was a grinding noise from behind us, as the stone chamber rose once more from beneath the yellow lantern. The door slid open, and the warrior from the “experienced” adventuring group stepped out with a sack slung over his shoulder. He looked up and saw us, before announcing “we’ve cleared this place out”, and jingled the gold and other items in the sack over his shoulder. Our hearts sank. The warrior’s two companions joined him, and after a short discussion agreed to show us the treasure which they had looted from the one place we had not managed to get to. Unloading the warrior’s sack took a distressingly long time, as their wizard gloated over the valuable statues, pile of gold, magical wands and enchanted armour. Telling them that they could buy the first round of drinks, we shared a boat back to town. .oOo. Later that night, the other group having gone on to another bar, we pulled our own treasure out from under the table. Once again, we’d perhaps had too much to drink, and that was what encouraged us to wrestle the lid off the box inscribed with writing text which read “Queen of Chaos”. Inside, positively throbbing with mystical energy, lay a short metal rod with a silvery loop on one end – the controlling rod for a sphere of annihilation, such as we had seen in the fresco back in the chamber of resurrection. In our hands lay a priceless artefact, the single most valuable item in the whole of Diamond Lake. Our minds swam on a sea of imagined riches. And alcohol. --- This episode brought to you by the number 6, the letter ‘W’, and the joke “Do you know the difference between a ferret and a weasel? They’re stoatally different.” [/QUOTE]
