1. The Star of Agar Pelar

From Bralasar we set out with a caravan - the Sandvoyagers Guild which we learned too late are slavers. Over the Dustwall, through the North Knife Pass, and into the Desert of Desolation we follow silver banners marking the way every half mile. Through the Gates of Suly that curse those who enter unbidden we reach an obelisk and a cross roads. To the West: the road of Turbacar and the Keeper of the Pyramid where a glistening light glimmers. To the North we are told is 5 days travel to the White Palm Oasis. To the East: our destination. We recruit Jamis and travel another day down the road of the King to Pazar.
 
We find a stone statue holding a tablet. He is called Meniozimus and he is filled with regret. They held back the water and died for it.
 
Following Jamis's fall down a crevasse we drive back large arachnids and speaking the words of an ancient parchment the doors to the altar open. There is our prize: the Star of Agar Palar, a black sapphire veined with white. We claim it and the world shudders. The voice of a fell Efreeti fills the air. He curses Martek and claims we have set him loose upon this desert. It can only be him - Kalatherius.
