Journal Entry 08.01 - Return from the Mountain Realm
Escaping the other Canton, the party accidently releases Majalacturis along with his followers. The sun goddess holding him prisoner is killed causing some of her essence to flow out and be absorbed by the party. A Coterie elite is killed in the escape.
General Summary
Entering the mountain through a mud-filled lava tube, the party comes to a hallway splitting into three hallways.
A powerful sphinx is guarding the head of the tunnel. She asks a rather simple riddle
- Round he is, yet flat as a board,
Altar of the Lupine Lords,
Jewel on black velvet, pearl in the sea,
Unchanged but e'erchanging, eternally.
- Storms of moon’s progress
Chisels the locust’s way.
Way of sap, sustenance of ash.
Way of blood, sustenance of dust.
Dark orb flees, fire chases.
Dark orb flees, fire chases.
Game ends when comes the man,
Nemesis embraced, passion drowned
Lovers merged, hemlock emerse.
Fulfilling the locust’s way
