| CREEPING ICHOR AND BONE CREATURES ATTACK THE CROSSING Tonight, a brackish ichor was seen creeping upward from the floor of the Empath guild in the Crossing. Those it touched were severely injured, flesh dissolving as if by acid, and if allowed to continue to creep across the person, it could quickly kill. Covering the ground as it did, it tended to first creep up the legs before making its way to the torso, where it would swiftly become deadly. Aislynn informed me that Damiza had told her rubbing holy water on oneself would remove the ichor, though do keep in mind the second-hand nature of this information. Holy water can be easily obtained in many places, most notably in the Crossing High Temple and the Riverhaven Temple. It is my recommendation to carry a chalice or vial of it with you at all times. The ichor was accompanied by an invasion of bone wyverns and bone amalgams, both Necromantic creatures created from bones and rotting flesh. With the aid of our Therengian allies, we were able to easily destroy these unholy monstrosities, though some of us did fall to the ichor before our valiant Empaths developed a strategy to mitigate it. I must note the timing of this disgusting and foul attack, coinciding with our preparations to assault the Lich Jeihrem, may his skin boil away like liquid on the stones of a Musparan oven. I will be watching closely to determine if this ichor has something to do with the "[binding of] his blood" to the Crossing, as told to us by our ally, the Purified Scholar Zauldin. I will pray now for the sanctity and protection of our Immortal patrons. In the name of the Thirteen, Navesi Daerthon |
