The Plane of Elemental Power

 Just like a groupie from the 80s... we followed the rock.  We followed it down into an unknown void.  We're stupid that way.

We landed in a cavern filled with powerful elemental essences.  And demons.  Lots and lots of demons.  In fact that's all we fought were Earth, Sun and Flame demons.  And we killed them all.

Before I get ahead of myself, let me tell you what we found.  We found, in this noxious space, a Tinkerer.  Yep, just tinkering I guess.  So she joined our fight, figuring safety in numbers I guess, and fight she did!  At one point the Tinkerer took out 3 or 4 demons in one fell swoop!  It was amazing.

In the final room I think the demons were surprised to see us because they did not coordinate their efforts at all and ended up being taken apart piecemeal.  Once even the Brute took out two at the same time, but really, that's not a big deal anymore.  The Tinkerer saw to that.

After we finished the final demon by putting him out of his misery, we felt pretty good about ourselves, that is until we heard a disembodied voice telling us that he was not pleased, but that he had a temptation for us.  In fact, temptation is the only way I can put it.  He tempted us by giving us a choice.  Either die, a poor choice from our perspective for sure, or gain an artifact of amazing power.  I mean, sure, we'll think about it, but we may be swayed here.  I mean the alternatives are pretty extreme.

The Story So Far: On the brink of the Elemental Plane of Power

As we stand on the brink of the Elemental Plane of Power let's examine where we've been, and decisions that brought us here as well as our options at this point. We start with a simple job to retrieve some papers from the Black Barrow.  This lead directly to the Barrow Lair.  Here we find those papers and returned them to Jekserah for cash.  All that seemed simple enough.   We also discovered a new site, The Sulfur Mine. While we didn't learn what those papers were, they archaic and mysterious in nature.  Alongside this was a map to "Crypt of the Damned", a telltale sign that this was going to get dark.  Also during this scenario the boss remarked about the "Gloom". At this point we could either keep earning money from Jekserah by storming an Inox Encampment or investigate the Crypt of the Damned. We chose to earn the money from Jekserah and went to the encampment. Considering us useful, Jekserah gave us another job, to go to a Diamond Mine and grab ...

Temple of the Seer

We're off to see the Seer!  We started off by bumping into our little poster child for "never trust a Vermling".  Didn't get fooled twice.  On the way to the temple we met up with a large caravan where our services were appreciated.  It's nice to be appreciated. At the temple we fought bravely and quickly dispatched its inhabitants.  An irritated voice reluctantly answered a question the Brute has had for a long time, the location of Jekserah.  We are off in search of finishing this tale.
