Beyond the Hall of Pools strange mongrel creatures lurked...
And from the red mists they came!

"...hundreds of encased squares panels with small carved heads about six inches in size. As you take in the room the little heads begin reciting a poem, each head saying one word, creating a dazzling audiological effect as the words seem to flow about and bounce around the room..."
The poem The Palace of the Silver Princess:
The sphere antechamber opens into a library study hall...

Re: Visuals & Clues to the Mystery of the Princess
In the library reading room... a large framed picture, 6' x 6', its canvas slashed in several places. The title on a brass plaque: Lady Myshella the Silver Princess and Cornelia the Dragon, the Later Years...
The library stacks...
It rises...
"I am Catharandamus, sage master and philosopher to Lady Myshella," mutters the apparition in the minds of the adventures as a wave of cold passes over you. "Long has been my torture since the heart opened. Long my contemplation of its influence. Chaos has tilted the balance in many worlds - Lemuria, Mu, Mystera, Gondwanaland, Altlantis, Amyrika, Abeir-Toril -- swallowing civilizations in anarchy, entropy and dissolution. I fear the same here. My philosophy is now death. Consider it..."

Re: Visuals & Clues to the Mystery of the Princess
Shen the monk opens the tattered journal of Sir Erykose, the lover, husband and reputed murderer of Lady Myshella, the Silver Princess. Who knows how it ended up on the floor of the library study hall, not far from the corpse of Catharandamus, but it certainly shows its age. The vellum pages are rippled and the ink splotched, as if the whole book had gotten wet. Pages are stained with what could be blood; many pages are ripped out; there is a large section of mold in the back; the fore edges are foxed; and insect damage is apparent. But the monk and other readers do make out many entries. Interspersed in the journal are sketches, some in Erykose’s own hand, others tipped in and signed by the court artist Bowgentle of the Brushes.

Re: Visuals & Clues to the Mystery of the Princess
Raquinel the sorceress swoons and is overcome with another vision…
"Your souls smell of sulfur and brimstone," it says, the raspy voice rattling in your mind telepathically. "Legio mihi nomen est, quia multi sumus.

Re: Visuals & Clues to the Mystery of the Princess
About 30' down, at the edge of the party's torchlight... What is that in the middle? Is it moving?
The girl runs down the corridor and into...
The Atrium of the Silver Princess
The Fellowship of Law beholds a wondrous chamber...
In the northwest corner is a colony of mushrooms and fungi...
The monster plant lashes out at Bjorn the cleric...
Shen the monk sees a flying snake arise from the lake...
At the top of the stairs is a kingly statue... its eyes move!
A pretty grove of purple flowers and moss is south of the lake...
Honnilee the hobbit spies a statue...
A map of the Atrium...
The little girl laughs and Ianin turns to stone...
The girl clutches a doll...

The Palace of the Silver Princess in all her glory, during the halcyon days of Princess Myshella...
The view from the rear. Today, the dry ruins of the fountains remain. The surrounding rear buildings are gone. Much of the second floor of the Palace proper is gone. The dome of the Atrium can be seen, with the Tower of Roses to its right.
