Fogholt

  Must enter Yandune to get to Fogholt. This is a literal ghost town. Shade warriors, spectral animals and ghost live here as if they were still alive. The history is hidden as the king of the land was cautious of outsiders before everyone died. All the citizens carry on with their regular life because they had a ritual performed that kept them from dying. About a decade ago, a mysterious plague started to spread around Galfin and it originated in Fogholt. Deacon Oakhand's people were all dying and he could no find out how or why it was happening. Deacon performed a ritual to kill all his people but keep their spirits alive. They no longer felt sick and had no idea they were dead. Deacon had to connect their lives to a living totem that would feel their pain but not be allowed to die for the ritual to work. Deacon offered himself up and shut himself in his castle, never to be seen by his people again. The large spectral army that rivals Skygarde's still trains in the mountain clearing. The Fogholt plague led the people of Galfin to believe that the air in that territory was sickening and no one entered. A large boulder was placed passed Yandune by fearful people to ensure no was allowed back into the dying city. The stones in the wall came form each major city in the Mainland. Yandune is now used as the prime farm for the addictive yandu berries and has made the path to Fogholt even more treacherous.. Has a loyal group of Blade Ogres defending the entrance. They have lived and died on the other side of the rock pile. They built a small community in the caves leading to Fogholt. 4 generations ago a deal was struck between Deacon and the faction of ogres, he saved them from certain death. Their honour is so true that they pass their debt to their children and all grow up in defence of Fogholt, even though the civilization collapsed 200 years prior. Boh'Rus joins a group of adventurers to ensure the safety of his king.
 
 
  Fogholt Tomb the time bubble takes all the team and kaile into a point 300 years in the past.
  a grey skinned vampire stands in front of them, a white skinned wight and a young succubus who you know as Maven Grimbind finish locking the door behind as you appear. They are shocked and confused as they hold the Vloxan cube. In the center if the room is a protective root system in the center above a grave. The 3 undead who are covered in blood look at each other and they attack you. You must get the cube to Iona within a minute (30 seconds) if you wish to survive the gold flow. The pillars are kinalite, the adornments are gold. Triss eclipstone is slowly gaining color back. She can control the gold on her body once it returns. Yuri can bramble magic, ser anvil fights well, kaile is too weak.
  3 undead knocked out, 6 seekers that are heavily wounded and carrying the cube out of the tomb. Blue Roes but with a brass bell on their garbs.
  Dex sees that the grave is marked with symbols of Dhara. When he touches it he sees a bright lighted body glowing from inside. He has seen this shape before in the flashbacks of Dwi'Thek losing his magical drum. The bright figure is unmistakably Dhara. In the x-ray vision Dhara returns his head and shows him a rift scarring the sky. 4 figures stand below it as Dex Looks up to see his vision following a tree trunk covered in orchid flowers upwards. A white stag runs around the tree as it carries a green sword. The deer stops at the top of the tree next to a black wolf holding a yellow shield. You look up from a point of view when rain hits your face. You are blinded by harsh sunlight as you look through the rain upwards. This phenomenon causes a rainbow effect on 8 figures floating above the tree. A rift forms in the sky as a blue sun rises. You wake up to the flight happening to you.
  Maven, Crios and Boggan are defeated or you take the cube from them. You rush out to Iona as she spins the Rubik's cube around forming a pattern she learned in Clarion.
  Iona looks to the party. Answer quickly, where do you want to go?
  As you land back in the room filling with gold, most of the Seekers are dead as the bottomless pyre pulls some gold into it. The chamber is filling as Iona grabs the ancestral inkwell. You notice the phylactery is glowing bright blue, charged up with souls taken by Iona over the last 300 years. Her helmet activates as you teleport to wherever you asked to go.
