Mythology & Lore

The Caverns of Thought are thought to be the resting place for Illsensine. This is supported by the discovery of a sarcophagus with the image of a mind flayer on it by the Party. This sarcophagus was accompanied by four runes, written using the Dwarvish script but in Primordial, the oldest of which was done by a mind flayer.
