Session 28 - 2,750 xp

Heroes: Ibiki, Ceolwic, Rat.

The Heroes face the guardian of the lower levels of the Temple, a young but cunning black dragon. After having defeated the beast, they find a secret entrance to an ancient vault, guarded by deadly traps, and a fearsome undead guardian.

In the cavernous room, the find the Altar of the Dragon's Eye, a basalt relic of great power. Three niches are set in the wall behind it, two of which contain a scepter and an amulet, which they claim as spoils. When the Heroes touch the Altar, a great light overwhelms them, and they temporarily lose consciousness. When they awake, they do not experience any noticeable change.

The Heroes travel back to Adderport, but on their way they start to feel an itching sensation. Ceolwic notices that his dragonmark has changed slightly, growing in power, while Rat manifests the Mark of Passage, and Ibiki manifests an Aberrant Mark!

During their last day of travel to reach Adderport, they're attacked by the Emerald Claw, trying to claim from them something they call the Dragon's Eye. The Heroes take care of the assailants, but their Cleric leader escapes.

Back in Adderport, they report to Sur'kil, who is very intrigued by the appearance of the dragonmarks on the Heroes. He claims the scepter and amulet for himself, and also informs the Heroes he may have some clues about the item missing from the third niche. As they board their chartered elemental vessel, Sur'kil shares the details of their next quest.
