Rogan 158 Posted July 11, 2021 Prelude Event I. 11/07/2021 Imgur gallery Starting as a rumoured conspiracy of corpse-trafficking through Everlook, the adventuring party took off for the elf-ruin of Mazthoril. There, they met the mysterious bounty hunter known as Richard Strong, who revealed in detail that his previous company had been all but wiped out (save himself) while waiting for the backup to arrive. The 'Scourge' had fled into the depths of the ruin-dotted cavern, establishing a hideout that had been, for the most part, a non-issue to the locals. However, scouting and delving into the caverns revealed an altogether different story. What was thought to be a small band of cultists, perhaps extremists turned out to be a well-equipped force of diehard cultists. A brutal skirmish followed, with the smarmy warlock Lyzzie Shadowbolt taking the brunt of the hits when her swarm of imps, though able to dispatch several of these 'Kingsworn' in the fighting, their undead minions falling in the fight. A death knight joined the fight, nearly turning it on the adventurers before quick thinking and a devastating strike from Kaelsier brought his dark crusade against the interlopers to an end. Despite this, a single necromancer was seen escaping, carrying some kind of urn in both hands during the chaos of the fight, leaving only a darkly-clad herald as the Death Knight fell, his head returned to Everlook for a sizeable reward. Meanwhile, as the wounded are returned to Everlook to recover, Effie Fizzlevex and Ludo learn of a terrible secret; of a Lich from another, terrible time orchestrating the plot, of speaking of a Master from beyond the veil seeking to bring down the veil between life and death. Whatever this chilling message meant, it meant nothing good for the living. Participants: Raz'kar (Razkar) Ludo (Gurren) Ephemera Fizzlevex (Fizzlevex) Lyzzie Shadowbolt (Shadowbolt) Kaelsier Thank you to all who tagged along! For people who may not understand what this is: I am going to be doing some Shadowlands-related events in the leadup to Epsilon getting content from the new Expansion as a sort of 'pre-patch', with announcements being done ingame and as spontaneously as possible.
