Sixth Day in ScarWall

Gozran 17th, 4709 – After all but Dacw and Krojun getting a complete rest we were ready to go. We knew that the last one to destroy the curse, so we could enter the spike, was somewhere on the second floor. So, we set out to find Castellian Mithrodar. Torag was with us as we started our search of rooms the first room we check we found Castellian Mithrodar in Kavazon’s throne room. This show me Torag was with us earlier we could of open those doors and been destroyed by Mithrodar but we were looking for a way down to get to the spike. Now we are ready to do battle with Mithrodar.

Torag was with us in the battle with Mithrodar. Andrian as he open the door saw Mithrodar. Mithrodar stood up and told Dacw and Laori to attack us. When they did not he cursed them moving to attack us. But we noticed he was bounded to this room. Andrian sprang into action going into the room attacking Mithrodar. Mithrodar called up and filled the room with skeletons. Rizzle was able to destroy over half of the skeletons making room for us to enter. Laori and the Legion that walks hit Mithrodar causing him to be bloodied. Dacw enter the room and call up more skeletons to attack Mithrodar skeletons that Rizzle did not destroy. Krojun ran into the room to attack Mithrodar and came down with such a blow was able to destroy Mithrodar and ending the curse of Scarwall forever. I enter the room last destroying all the skeletons standing. In a few moments we saw the imprisoned spirits of Scarwall being set free from the walls. We saw Carufinwe and Count Sial spirit leave the walls along with others. One spirit stop in front of us and we witness what Kavazon did to him before he died and was imprison in the walls of Scarwall. He then spoke and told us how he failed and caused the curse of Scarwall and he thanked us for destroying the curse which he caused. He thanked us and told us it is Kavazon we need to destroy and not the Queen. We will find the sword of Serithiel in the lower level of the spike. We noticed that now the curse has been removed Scarwall is aging. The power that kept it standing is now gone and it is being to age quickly. We do not have a lot of time and must get to the spike to retrieve the sword of Serithiel and get out of Scarwall before it collapsed.

We went back up to the third floor to get on the roof to make our way to the star-spike tower. We noticed all the Gargoyles had left now that the curse has been removed. Andrian went first with a rope so the rest of us could make it across without to much trouble. Laori Vaus was able to create a passage through the solid wall and we all entered the star-spike tower. We went down a couple of floors that had nothing of interest in them and came into a room with a strange looking undead angel. This undead angel name was Ildervok and he asked us who among us agreed to become the new curate of Zon Kuthon spike.

After some talk we ask Laori since it is her god to become the new curator but she declined. Legion asked Krojun and he said no. We decide to check the other room more closely for a secret way down. The angel followed us, all we found was his living area. He still asked us who is going to be the curator. I was thinking maybe I should scarifies myself so the rest could go on but Rizzle then pulled out the head of Gaedren Lamm saying here is your new curator. Gaedren quickly decline but when Andrian indicated that if he did he would destroy him. So, Gaedren agreed and the undead angel took Gaedren and disappeared for Gaedren to meet the god Zon Kuthon. We went back to the bottom floor and all we found was a well-like hole filled with a thick blue-green mist. We drop things into the hole and heard them hit bottom and putting light in it but still could not see. We then tied a rope around Legion who we lower into the hole a couple of times but he seem to get turn around and would climb back out thinking he found an exit. After talking what we should do and Legion saying he seems to float while in the hole ask to be lower one more time this time after he got in and untied him self from the rope and fell to the bottom. He was partly right that while in the mist he was okay but the mist ended above a room and he fill about fifty feet into the room seriously hurting him self. He called back to us telling us what he found.

I tied to explain that we should tie our pack to the rope and lower it down until Legion could see the packs. Then he would grab a hold of the packs and pulling them to the floor making the rope tight. With Krojun going to stay behind with Trinia to hold the rope the rest of us climb down with the heaviest going first. But Ducw, could not wait or did not understand took the rope and jump into the mist. This let us no other choice but to jump down. We did leave Trinia, Krojun and Loari above to help us get back up. I was able to heal the ones that needed to be healed as we talk about how we will get back up. I wanted to be sure we had a way back and once again Ducw or maybe Andrain threw a rock up into the mist and then after a while it did come up at the other end. So, if we could get into the mist it will take us back.

We began our search of the caverns to find the sword of Serithtial. We first went to a dead end path that brought us to a well with hung spaced for a giant. We double back and we soon heard the voices of something chanting. We went slow and came upon a group of humanoid lizards bowing and worshipping something. We decided to attack them and came up on them quickly surprising them and taking some of them out before they knew we where there. It was a quick battle before a creature came out from the underground lake.

The last four or five troglodytes bow and began to chant the name “Rovagug” as this creature appeared. Iit was the Troglodytes “god” as it seemed to levitate out of the murky water. It was some sort of transparent ooze with tentacles. We had to think how to attack it from a distant so we were not pulled into the water. It also seemed to be resistant to our missle attacks. We were doing little to no damage with our crossbows. Rizzle did damage it with his force missile attack keeping the creature at bay. Ducw and Legion finished off the Troglodytes as they bow to their “god rovagug”. It had reach on us and some strange attack that seem like it wanted to steal our souls. Rizzle was able to keep it away from us with his force missile attacks. Since it look like it was dead Andrian told me to try and turn it. Since I was having trouble hitting it with the cross bow I did and was able to hurt it. Soon Rizzle attacks damage it so bad that it split into two creatures. Rizzle was able to keep one away as the other came to the shore line where Andrian attack it from the water with my assistants we were able to destroy it. Rizzle was able to destroy the other half with his force missiles. Once the creature was defeated Andrian swam across the water to an island where he retrieved the sword of Serithtial and brought it back to the group. For some reason the sword wanted to be in Ducw care. So we let the half orc care the sword of Serithtial.

We search for a large rock that we could throw up fifty feet with the hope it will pull us back up and out of this cavern. We tied the rope around the rock and the other end around us. Then, with Ducw, Legion, Andrian and myself, we attended to throw the rock into the mist. It took a few tries before we were able to do it and it worked. As the rock went into the mist it pulled the rope tight and pulled us into the mist, too. We called to Krojun to look for a large rock and to grab the rope when it comes out. They were able to grab the rope and pull us out of the mist. We then quickly left the star spike and Scarwall for good. We stay at Scarwall outpost one last night as we watch Scarwall age and begin to fall apart.
