Ruins of Old Guk

Where the Greenblood River meets the Innothule Swamp, an ancient city of stone buildings and canals has been partially reclaimed by the jungle, with massive trees growing out of some of the buildings and vines hanging from much of the rest. This dead city was once the elven city state of Quin'Sari, an independent polity that served as a middleman for trade between Akhet Aken and Amaril. The city was conquered by the Shissar, whose portal opened there. After the defeat of the shissar, the city was left vacant until a tribe of frogloks claimed it during the Combine age and renamed the city Guk. Now Guk is overrun with undead due to the Curse of Ykesha. The ghouls of elves, frogloks, trolls, and crocodiles haunt the ruins preying on any living creature that dares enter them. This is a dungeon for levels 6-28.

Points of Interest

  THE PALACE: The palace was a temple in the Elddar age. The shamanistic frogloks repurposed it as their palace. Its twin domes rise above the rest of the city. The entrance to the catacombs is found here.   THE CATACOMBS: Beneath the city, tunnels extend down below the river. These catacombs were the resting ground for dead Elddar'Dal. These tunnels have long been abandoned, and some parts of the catacombs have flooded. In one passage, the floor of the catacombs has collapsed exposing an Underfoot entrance. The curse that has given rise to the dead in the city has similarly caused these ancient elves to rise.
