DAY 457 (3rd Kythorn)(June) cont ...
It was hard to keep track of time in the Plane of Shadow, let alone the FAMP, but Fenrir
judged it to be late in the afternoon when they entered the portal again. With cloth
masks and goggles to keep the dust out of their faces they began to explore a little
around the portal.
It was a broken landscape, very hard to traverse. Cliffs and crevasses were everywhere.
There way was constantly blocked either by a sheer rock wall, piles of scree, or drop offs
into darkness.
They followed a cliff around for a few hundred metres until they saw the jagged outline
of some ruins on the horizon in the distance. They could just make out the flickering
light of the portal behind them.
Veddice used Stone Shape to create a 10ft stone pillar to act as a marker and they
continued through the storm. In the distance they could hear rock falls, as stones
and boulders fell from higher places and tumbled down the scree slopes.
Eventually they cautiously entered the ruins, that offered some small shelter
from the wind. Here they were attacked by undead, creatures that I will here name
as 'hexrot zombies' and 'ash ghosts'.
Veddic made short work of them though, turning or destroying most of them. What he
didn't get, Fenrir destroyed with his eldritch blasts. There was work for Milo
too as there were chests in some of the rooms, containing treasure and 'shards'
which were the equivalent of scrolls on this plane.
The found a set of steps that lead down into a dungeon area and here they fought
an 'ash morgh', but again the undead creature was no match for Veddic.
They had more trouble with two 'black horrors'. As best I can make out these were
like black puddings but a bit more tentacly.
As they continued exploring they found a room that seemed to have a little girl
weeping in the corner. What in all that was good and natural, they wondered, was
such a one as her doing in a place like this?
