Lost City of Khemsa, Forgotten Kingdom of Verulia, Great Eastern Desert, the World of Hyboria
Day Ten. Morning?, 23rd day of the month of Yuluk, 1279th year of the Age of Aquilonia
Hiding behind a crumbling wall of lost antiquity, Zahra's pale eyes peer out. The amazon spies cover closer to the ship that ferries lost souls through the underworld to the Island of Death.
She asks Tjoruy of the black lake. Trembling, the underdweller replies, "I know not. None do that live!"
Cruloc the barbarian is repulsed by the perverted, bestial sentries. Garrin of Argos suspects a trap.
The adventurers quietly creep forward and take shelter behind one of several low forlorn buildings that huddle at harbor's edge.
Xorzen scales its decaying stone wall and crouches atop its rotting timber roof. From that vantage, the masked monk can see a light on the dark ship, emanating from below decks. And beyond her furled sails, he sees an ancient stone wharf that juts out past the vessel of the damned.
At Mako's suggestion, Amethu prepares a spell to silence the nigh-human monstrosities that stand guard in an unsettling approximation of Men.
Loche the Pict readies his sling. "Juist say th' word."
