Me, Kairon, Jan
Nadir took the whip and threw it back at Jan
Kairon Bloodfist was in Unknown tower he saw a middle aged man emerge from inky blackness, blond hair, tunic leather vest, expression of pain and anguish, screams then vanished
Re-submerged through the portal
Someone I recognise Ingo the Drover from my sailing days, land contact in Saltmarsh.
VISION: Dark cloudy day in daggerford. Crowd gathered, hangmans platform, red wizard (same that opened the sarcophocous) in noose, Sir Isteval is there says: And for conspiring against the waterdavian council. We hang Arvik Zaltos the Red Wizard
VISION: Nadir standing underwater temple, against the walls are crates and corpses in the center stone brick wall 20ft across leads into a dark tunnel (its beneath the lighthouse). Above tunnel is carcas of hammerhead shark, standing on side of well is Nadir in Red Robe clothes. Theres a human man with stringy hair and tight waistcoat, dirty, the water in the well is lashing around and attacking the man, pulling him under the water. Purple glow coming down from ceiling.
Im cursed by misadventure, whispers
Pale white light.
VISION: Lady Luck tavern, big column deceased heros Sir Isteval on stool, he's toasting to everyone, didnt hear it all. Great deeds of an individual (didnt catch who), no cane or brace.
Pulled out a brass dragon statue, key with a bit of crystal attached to it (put in the bag of holding)
Nasty looking spiked eel
Sad hopeless Sir Istval voice in my head "I am a callous selfish man, my suffering here reminds me that I could be a principle of good again. But here all that awaits me is despair in my deepest heart."
I drank 1 Greater Healing and a Potion of Heroism, Jan drank 2x regular.
VISION: Speaking to Lady Morwen Daggerford, who is distraught, and who slaps him. Sir Isteval stumbles, his leg wounded "You bastard". Feels like some kind of broken promise.
Grabbed a ball of light and hear Sir Isteval again "I have seen creatures here from hell itself, their rage is Nadir's rage, their sorrow his sorrow. When he is angry he curses and scorns those he has before but he always returns to the hells somehow hoping it will return an answer. Here the Rakshasha has separated pieces of himself so he will be free of anger despair etc. He is devoid of these and is the purest form of himself as that what he needs for the demon lord that he seeks. Buried deep in time and beneath chains and the gods and most powerful is a greater evil called the Chained God, the imprisoned one aka Tharizduun . You cannot stop Nadir for he has already succeeded now you will have to stop the Elder Evil itself."
Absorbed the orb, curse removed regain level of exhaustion.
Kairon hears Sir Isteval "I regret a great many things that I have done in my life. Stay true to yourself and do not fall the same way that I have"
JAN VISION: Dwarf with red beard, another creature with turban (human wizard), simple robed individual drawing in the back. Theyre doing a dungeon crawl and working on a locked door. Dwarf guarding, Sir Isteval trying to guide to open. Mentions black dragons, tons of them. Vault of the Dracolich they mentioned. We've got it it shoudnt be far from here, Lizardfolk is probably next. (See: Company of the Sunlit Sea )
Sir Isteval says: (crying sounds filled with sadness sorrow suffering)
Chest: 4x Greater Healing Potions (added to bag) and Magic Wand (Evocation)
Beginning chambers didnt have much crystal, had memories of Nadir, the red crystal areas had Sir Isteval memories.
VISION: Sir Isteval attending a council. On a small stone table is a head of decapitated blue half dragon. Sir Isteval is aggressively arguing about a cult, mentions various locations on the sword coast ( Greenest, Baldur's Gate, Luskan. Some group has attacked the coast en-masse and its some kind of cult. (Maybe Cult of the Dragon?)
Small statue of Yvain, and mote of light.
Sir Isteval: A bit arrogant "To break the spine of this cult, the hoard of these people, not only kill the commander but also their summoner. I do not know which one I killed first"
Magical Gemstones (can be imbued), 2 platnium rings, flask of probably healing, tarnished silver key
We enter enormous grotto, above is a red moon with craters, dark sillouette within it, theres 3 altars fire, air, stone, trident sticking out from each, colors swirling around, forming 3 layers. Purple, Red, Outer green. Rakshassa voice and siloette move within the ball.
Nadir says "Welcome to your end and my beginning..."
