The cleric had been carrying a silver key as well as a number of scrolls, one of which spoke of visions he had had in the smoke, saying that a great power was stirring, and that“At last the will of the Ebon Triad be done. With the return of Kyuss, the Age of Worms is at last upon us.”.oOo.We spent still more of the charges from the every-weakening wand of healing, and then backed up to the third and final exit. Flynne went first, creeping down the narrow tunnel. He returned a few moments later to describe a room filled with skulls and a mound of furs, upon which sat a large and heavily scarred grimlock. We prepared carefully, strapping one of the suits of enchanted heavy armour onto Igmut and positioning Endo’s skeletal ‘wife’ in the corridor in front of us. Flynne then crept back down the corridor with his bow, taking a single shot and then dashing back to join us.Judging by the bellow of rage and pain, the shot was true, and moments later the largest grimlock yet appeared in the tunnel mouth. Ignoring the arrow lodged in his left shoulder, the barbarous grimlock raised a heavy axe above his head and bellowed at us. “Erythnull will destroy you!”The monstrous humanoid charged towards us, foaming at the mouth. Seconds later, ‘Mrs Sevestarian’ was on the floor in hundreds of bony shards. We all fired arrows at the creature, which shook its weapon at us and continued to threaten us.Igmut raised his spear to block the creature should it charge, whilst Niccoli drew his heavy sword and prepared to counter-charge. Flynne, Endo and I could not believe that the creature would be so brazen as to stand and threaten us. So we shot it a second time.Bellowing, the huge creature ran at us, taking Igmut’s set spear straight into his belly. In a burst of gore, the spear burst from the monster’s back, and he simply pushed himself along the spear, screaming into Igmut’s face all the while.Niccoli took four paces, swung his sword, and swept his sword. One blow parted the grimlock’s head from its shoulders, and its body slumped to the floor.The battle was over, and the temple to Erythnull had fallen. We settled back for a well-deserved rest.</blockquote>
