“Please leave us alone for a time. I will do all
in my power to help or comfort him as I can.
Please, our time together may be short. I
also suggest that you rest, since we all know
that we are safe here.”
Note that a cure disease spell will not have a
major effect; Ilkifs main malady is age. However,
any curing or life-strengthening magic
(such as a cure disease spell or a potion of longevity
or vitality) will strengthen Ilkif for the
trial to come and give the characters who provide
it an XP bonus equal to that of the item at
the conclusion of the adventure.
The party is left to their own devices at this
point, Ansanther suggests they get a good
night’s sleep. After most of the party falls
asleep, or an hour after Asanther and Ilkif are
left alone . . .
You are startled from your thoughts by a
huge eruption of sound and brilliant blast of
light from the top of the sphere.
Upon investigation, the characters find Ilkif s
sleeping room empty. A stair that was previously
unnoticed leads to an open trap door in
the ceiling.
Ascending the stair and peering through the
open trap door, you see what may have
been a magic workshop. The room is ablaze
in multicolored flames. A beautiful, glowing
long sword lies atop a burning tome in the
middle of the floor.
’RI the right and left are the bodies of
Ansanther and Ilkif. Ilkifs left hand still
rests on the burning book, his right is
wrapped around Ansanther. Asanther lies
still. Her right hand rests on the pommel of
the shining sword.
The long sword is a holy avenger + 5. The personality
of Ansanther has been merged with
the sword. Both NPCs are dead. Nothing of
value remains in the workshop. The burning
tome is Ilkif s spell book; it is a total loss.
