GUEST DM!
The party ventures down the dark dungeon hallway. The walls and ceiling are covered in ice — or maybe crystals?
Aelin approaches one of the icy crystals covering the walls and squints her eyes, seeing an elvish figure seemingly frozen in time, locked within the crystal.
The hallway seems like it should feel cold, but it oddly doesn’t. It feels almost like a fever.
The rest of the party surveys the crystals, seeing several other bodies frozen in time. Not decaying, but… not alive. Almost like a painting, but real.
Dayne (tapping on the crystal):
“It’s as hard as diamond. Don’t know how they got in there.”
Olwynn squints as she assesses the figures’ attire and notices that they’re all wearing robes — wizards of some kind? — that were, in ancient times, worn by Xurians.
They continue on down the hallway, wary of their surroundings.
Aelin stops short as everyone continues walking on, feeling a bit of a chill on the back of her neck.
She turns around, squinting at the darkness, and sees… something. She can’t tell if it’s her imagination or not, but she sees what looks like a figure standing in the hallway about 70 ft away. She blinks, and it just walks away.
Dayne:
“Aelin?”
Aelin:
“…I could’ve sworn I saw something back there. It was probably just… a reflection in the crystals.”
