Game Events

Stranded on the Plane of Shadows by the guardian of Icosiol’s tomb, Ellan and Eolias sifted through the piles of coin and other mundane items in the spider’s lair in the hope of finding a way back to the Prime Material plane.

Having found nothing of use, they set off through the shadowy realm to try and locate a gate between the planes, Ellan remembering that such areas, whilst uncommon, did exist. He also recalled that they were also usually watched by strong guardians.

After travelling for several hours they were drawn to a place where some slight strands of colour were visible in amongst the monochrome drabness of this plane. Getting closer it became apparent that these swirls of colour were emanating from a tiny tear in the fabric of the plane, but as they approached to investigate they were set upon by a Dread Wraith who had noted their advance.

Eolias was hit first, and decided to retreat to use his arrows from range, leaving the hapless Wizard to combat the undead menace face to face.

Using all his spells to their maximum effect, Ellan was able to withstand the assault of the Wraith, and between them the Archer and Wizard managed to do enough damage to force the monster from the plane of Shadows.

Ellan checked the area and discovered the remnants of a spellbook which contained a few spells that he did not already know.

Pushing through the tear joining the planes the two found themselves back in the Tomb of Icosiol, and hurried to join the rest of the party where they found that time had passed more slowly for them, what has seemed like 10 mins had actually taken over 30!.
