18th Day in the 4th month, 1372
The throngs continued pouring into Tandis before the Court of Love's arrival. Again the heroes delved. In the 6th deep, they found many wretches who led them before the Golden Sorcerer. The heroes made a deal with the sorcerer giving him the Star-shaped Medallion in return for Jean and the book, The Locked Room. The Golden Sorcerer claimed that the cult of Demogorgon occupied the level below and that it was led by 6 powerful magic users. The Golden Sorcerer declined offers of an alliance; he claimed he was off to seek a Golden Realm beyond our world.
The heroes pushed further into the deep darkness, exploring tombs and slaying undead monstrosities. They eventually found a pillar of ice that encased a magic blade and later, ran across a foul demon which was slain instantly by a lightning bolt loosed from the mighty centaur-warlock, Heironymous.
To the surface, they returned with the suitably thankful Sir Jean.
Wellborn, Taran and Heironymous eagerly returned to their workshop. Taran discovered that precious gems were instrumental in the creation of magic ink and the amethysts the heroes recovered would serve nicely. The magic ink was nearing completion.
The magic users also began to study the nature of the glowing silver dust recovered from the dungeons and found it to be the dust of a Unicorn's Horn, a very potent component.
Visefrin, Bishop of Tandis again communed with the mighty divinities
What is the location of the Crusader's Helm?
It is in shrine to chaos in the 7th Deep. It has been lain upon the altar of a foul demon
What is the location of the Crusader's Shield
It is secreted away in the deepest darkness untouched by Chaos. It is hidden within the labyrinthine walls of the 8th Deep. Beware, above all, the 8th Deep.
Are there any fighting clerics in the world, such as myself, who could be persuaded into joining our group?
There are none like you left in the world and few who would dare to follow your path. Men claim that the days of Crusaders and Saints are in the past. You must be a beacon if you wish to call the elect to your side. Claim the Relics of the Crusader, and begin the Order anew!
