Session 39 (2,000 xp)

Heroes: Vladimir, Malik, Rowena, Storm

Year 645 MR (2nd quarter)

Imlik confesses that he was working on behalf of a Priestess of Karesha, who has taken possession of an abandoned warehouse in the wharf district. The Heroes go to pay the priestess a visit. When she tries to stop their inquiries, they subdue her, and find a shaft excavated in the warehouse, leading deep underground.

At the bottom of the shaft, they enter a cavern complex, that eventually leads them to a huge cave, where several  stone building still stand. While exploring, they're attacked by a couple of water trolls inhabiting the nearby underground lake.

Having killed the trolls, the Heroes are welcomed by a tribe of mongrelmen, hideous but peaceful creatures, once slaves of the warlocks living in the ruined city. They guide the Heroes to the Tower of the Triad, where the warlocks once conducted their studies.

In the tower, the Heroes must battle a few undead guardians, but they can only go past the last (and most terrible) by using their wits. Once again successful, the Heroes enter an ancient vault where many treasure are kept; among them, one of the sielshegh stones belonging to Sigurd's crown.
