Tonight we get a glimpse of the action before it happens as the party are driven to the well of souls. This will be the scene leading up to the final encounter in these swamps, well for not any way. So let’s sit back, grab a coffee and roll into tonight’s adventure!
To the Well of Souls
340WeSmBTSe
The party didn’t have much time between the undead starting to move towards the city and when the first of them realised that there was easier prey nearby. As the first of the undead started to move towards the party a strange thrumming started to come from the centre of the ruins.
Fighting back the undead that came towards them they made their way towards the centre of the ruins where they were met by a confusing sight. A paved depression led towards a hole that pulsed with green energy. Undead shambled towards the hole before pausing at the edge. As they watched one of the undead screamed; as much as rotting lungs could allow, and threw itself in the hole. A sudden thrum of power pulsed through the air that made the undead twitch.
Slowly more undead started to throw themselves into the hole and as they did more creatures appeared from the swamps. A skeleton of a giant sloth that was missing an arm near one of the ruins suddenly reanimated after a lizardfolk zombie had launched itself into the pit before the skeleton joined the rotting humanoid a few moments later. With passing moments the undead were throwing themselves into the put and with each pulse of energy, each thrum of the bodies connecting with something below more undead started to show up and something was beginning to feel off.
The party knew two things to be true. The undead must not complete their task, whatever it was as it triggered the creation of more undead. And the second more horrifying fact was that they had found the well of souls.
Now this one is up to the players what they do. Fight back the undead, blow them up with magic or let them continue to vaporise themselves. The same with the crescendo from the ice spire the end result is kinda the same, some differences but it progresses the story. But this is where the parties choices can affect it. Whether they do something now or they don’t their presence has set in motion a chain of events.
So to see what I have in store for the rest of this week don’t forget to come back the last few days this week and as always, don’t forget to roll with advantage,
