The spy is dead
Eowan's
story
It was a very hard fight in the dark evil underground chapel. I lost
consciousness at one point but Grundahl layed his hands on me, and the energy
flowed back into me. I quickly got back on my feet again, and noticed
Bairwinn was the only one left standing. He wasn't much of a problem anymore
with all of the others dead.
Lilsy started looting the corpses, and Tyrr made some light. After the
corpses Lilsy found a crack in a wall, and tried to open it with a pick she
found earlier. With some help from Grundahl the crack was soon a big hole in
the wall. Behind it seemed to be a small room, with a lot of books and a
chest. I made sure Ziruna got the gold that was in it, and started to look
at the books. Tyrr was already studying them, and there were a few
interesting ones. One was about Shadraxil and Tyrr mentioned there was never
talking about that he was 'killed', just 'defeated'. Another was some kind
of ritual book. We also found a note from Kalarel, talking about that they
had all the supplies they needed in the keep, and that Shadraxil was going to
be released soon.
There was also a book on the altar, which Tyrr was unable to read at
first. Then he started a ritual which should make it able for him to read
it. 10 minutes later, he started to read it, and told us it was a holy book
of shar. He also found out that Bairwinn was pretty high in the orders of
Shar.
We quickly went to Lord Padraig, where Lilsy excitedly started to tell
the whole story. Padraig didn't believe that Barwain was a follower of Shar.
But we convinced him to come with us to the shop. Linora was also summoned
and together we entered the shop. There Equilibira and Grundahl had rolled
the corpses into strokes of the carpet. Linora passed out when she saw it,
and Padraig still wasn't convinced easily but at the end he was. The corpses
were burned outside of town, and we were asked to go to that keep, or ruins
as others call it.
That evening most went to bed early, only me and Lilsy stayed celebrating
some in the inn. But it seemed the rest of the villagers weren't in a mood
for it. We also talked some to the old man from the tower. He told us
stories about what he knew from the ruins and how shadraxil was locked away
in some sort of rift. We didn't made it too late and went to bed.
The next morning we started our journey to the ruins. When we went up the
mountains we first found some of the flowers Lilsy wanted, but i convinced
here to pick them on our way back. Further up it became quiet, too quiet. No
animals sounds, which never is a good sign. Then we arrived at the ruins,
and while Lilsy checked the immediate surroundings, we found some stairs
going down...
