002

In the frozen wastes of the starlands, Dervish, Luna and Pip embarked on a perilous journey to claim Secrets of Stellarium. The ancient Stellarium, a magnificent observatory crafted by an alien race ages ago, was built from the hardest ice and was used to steal secrets from the heavens. However, the relentless grinding of the ice had pushed the observatory to the edge of a melting glacier, and it was in danger of falling into the abyss.

The heroes knew that the secrets contained within the Stellarium must be preserved at all costs, so they set out to save it. They began their ascent of the unstable glacier. After a treacherous climb, they finally reached the top, where they discovered Unknown footprints leading into the tower. Inside they found frozen bodies, smashed furniture and burnt books scattered throughout the rooms.

As they explored the tower, Pip and Dervish accidentally triggered a deadly mechanism involving pivoting reflectors and mirrors that concentrated starlight into a lethal beam. They continued their investigation and discovered a hall filled with more frozen bodies before coming upon a star altar. The altar was made of a slab of black stone and served as a place of worship for the high kings of the cosmos. Behind it, they found a precious living star map encrusted with gems.

The group then ventured to the forge, an ice room where high-relief figures of smiths making gleaming swords and armour adorned the walls. They were met with two guardian golems and had to defeat them to proceed. After the battle, the heroes decided to camp in the abandoned forge but were soon awakened by the sound of the ice wyrm feasting nearby.

A failed attempt to sneak away from the beast led to a fierce battle, but the heroes eventually managed to defeat it. They devised a plan to use the environment to their advantage and disrupted the glacier, causing it to crash down upon the tower and the ice wyrm within it.

With the Stellarium destroyed, the heroes returned home, knowing they had accomplished a great feat, but some secrets were left buried under the ice.
