Bandits of Barrow Hill -Complete-

(Session post)

After moving through the ancient tomb and clearing out the last of the unholy creatures therein, the troupe finally made it to the last door, a sealed door. After some trial and error Merric managed to rig the lock so the company could go in. Inside was an ancient stone coffin, and after some debate the company decided it needed to be opened to see if whatever was causing the undead to rise was due to the contents in the coffin. Before that happened, the ghost of the necromancer showed up to tell the troupe of his plans for vengeance against the cult of tiamat who apparently betrayed him. he confessed on having some important information regarding the cults movements in the area, and some locations that would be important to us. Kharask decided to go ahead with raiding the necromancers tower, but with some anxiety about it. Was the necromancer really trying to help them just for revenge against the cult. It seemed he would be less likely to be suprised at being betrayed by evil allies, and that coming back from the dead with the sole purpose of thwarting them seemed a bit off. Perhaps not unbelievable, but to kharask, it would seem the necromancer would be more angry at the troupe who thwarted his plans for reincarnation. Betrayal must have been apart of the wizards life, but thwarting the mind of someone so enlightened, even if his mind was bent on evil, must have been hard to swallow. Regardless, if the information was truelly there, or there was even a small chance it was there, it was something the company had to do. All members had taken a stance against the cult and its members, at least to some degree, and obtaining possible information to hinder them was simply too tempting to pass up. Something else that bothered Kharask. after hearing the necromancers words, the spectre vanished. The company finished the search of the coffin and found the remains of an ancient, holy knight. Beside the knight was his sword, Dalanor stating that it was a sword of great power against the undead. Some members of the troupe talked about its value on the open market, Tovik have mercy on them, but kharask made the decision to let the sword lie with its master, until a truelly worthy individual was drawn to it. Sealing the sword once again, and having merric reset the trap, the troupe exited the ancient tomb. During the night Kharask went back inside and removed the remains of the eladrin they had found. He buried two of them, Dalanor seemed shaken by the remains of one, and he buried that one himself. After sending blessings to Tovik to tell the elven gods of the lost silver elves, the dragonborn went back to his watch. The next morning, the troupe made there way towards the wizards tower. Azriel used the sigil they had found to lead the way, and they made good time. The travel took two days, and there encounter was handled swiftly and without much difficulty. Eventually the troupe made it to the ancient tower, a large stone spire jutting out of the dark woods nearby. Readying themselves, the troupe made there way to the main doors.

And thats where we left off. i'll have more soon!
