Here, wide stairs descend to a broad foyer. Two huge stone double doors loom at the far end of the room—an ancient inscription is chiseled into them. Arches to both sides of the stone doors reveal side halls flanking the one leading to the doors. A red light flickers in the darkness beyond the left-most arch.

Fish and crabs are feasting on the flesh of the dead, but will scurry away when your magical lights hits them.   The pathway to the lower level is still open and easily accessible.   You all journey down deeper into the depth of the earth. The ramp winding down from the level above ends in a flight of stairs leading to a dank, low-ceilinged room. The curved surface of the Emerald Spire takes up the northwest corner, and to the east is a broad stairway leading down to a dark passage. A small archway leads out in the south wall. Several toad-sized crabs skitter about. The broad stairs lead down into a wide hallway. There are two hallways on the south wall and one on the east. There is something large and sleek moving around in the wide hallway, this was the creature that took a bit out of Nugtuk a few sessions ago?

Session #27 - 11

Session #26 - 10

As travelers emerge from the Echo Wood underbrush, they find themselves staring up at a ruined keep guarding a broken central tower, all made of smooth, green glass. It’s obvious that a grand battle took place here many years ago, and the clearing around the ruin lies barren, with sickly weeds struggling to rise from the magic-blasted earth. Melted chunks of twisted glass pepper the ground, lending a green hue to the clearing’s light. Despite the damage, however, the glass of the keep itself seems to have avoided the ravages of time, with those pieces that survived the initial cataclysm unmarred by pitting or cracking, clean of moss and other clinging debris. At the top of a steep dirt path winding up through the rubble, a doorway opens onto darkness, its entrance seeming to steal light into its inky depths.
