22 Mielikki, 1222 – Tilia nearly dies from Mummy rot. She is saved by the quick intervention of the resident healer in the Glade named William.
25 Mielikki, 1222 – After returning to the ancient ruins under the circle of stones, the Party finds that it is a tomb devoted to an ancient elven (Selu’taar) family called the Bladeoaks. In their exploration, the party finds that a succubus, named Iferini, is in residence. After a brief fight, she charms Val and makes her escape.
This area was originally built by the Selu’taar as a tribute to the bladeoak family. The bladeoaks were a family of gaurdians entrusted with protecting some temples marked on the map.
As temple guardians and devotees to the major houses of the Selu’taar, they were each entrusted with a key associated with the family they protected.
The site includes a number of monumental entities including a massive humanoid-looking (empyrean) skeleton and a large dragon skeleton that apparently were related to the lives of those entombed here.
The demon presence appears recent (past few years maybe). They have defiled the once pristine catacombs with various iconography relating to a skull on fire on a mace. The skull has pointed protrusions. Other parts of the tomb have been defaced and there seems to be intense study around the empyrean and the tombs of the bladeoaks All other dead – including the servants of the bladeoaks are not present in their crypts.
The following inscriptions are found
Mylarai Bladeoak
“May Selune’s moonlight always radiate on her countenance”
42027 – 54293 PD (7,544)
Here lies Mylarai Bladeoak, faithful guardian of Primarch Qe’thalas the Keeper of the Crescent and forger of the Glaurachyndaar.
(summary of short story of her life says she was born as one of a set of triplets, she was trained as her sister and brother in martial and ranged weaponry from an early age. As a member of the bladeoak household, her fate was in the protection of the Selu’taar – high mages of the elves. When Qe’thalas’s previous guardian was killed, Mylarai took on the role (at age 972) and stayed in her role for nearly 6500 years before she met an untimely demise on a venture Qe’thalas had sent her on. Although she succeeded in her quest – taking out an empyrean in the process, her wounds proved fatal – as they proved non-responsive to healing magics.)
Mylarai’s tomb has a key that radiates a soft blue glow that resembles moonlight. It is intricately carved with magical runes.
Galladrieth Bladeoak
“May her spirit burn with Corelon’s vigor as it did in life.”
42027 – 44522 PD (2,495)
Here lies Galladrieth Bladeoak, faithful guardian of Primarch Le’thas the Shaper of the Wards of the Silvery Moon and binder of the Grumbar.
(Summary of short story of her life says she was born as a set of triplets, she was trained as her sister and brother in martial and ranged weaponry from an early age. As a member of the bladeoak household, her fate was in the protection of the Selu’taar – high mages of the elves. Assigned to Le’thas at age 472, Galladrieth was the most promosing of her siblings. Her passion and conviction were strong. She died in service to her nation.
Her tomb has a piece of reverberating stone that pulses with a low gutteral sound resembling the sound of shifting stone.
Scanalis Bladeoak
“May he live on through the Weave”
42027 – 49571 PD (12,266)
Here lies Skanalis Bladeoak, faithful guardian of Primarch Tel’thas the right hand of Thalnoth.
(summary of short story of his life says he was born as a set of triplets, he was trained as his sister and brother in martial and ranged weaponry from an early age. As a member of the bladeoak household, his fate was in the protection of the Selu’taar – high mages of the elves. He was apparently the least competent with martial weaponry, but was the most gifted in the ways of magic. The circumstances of his demise – much later than his two siblings and some notes in the story suggest he was part of a large ritual.
His tomb has a small key with a pentagram inscribed in it.
