Lord Herbert Luxford prodded the roast on his plate with his fork. The food was still hot and while it smelled delicious, he wasn’t hungry. With a bored look on his face he stared into the fountain.

“These dinner parties are so exceedingly boring!” Lord Luxford thought, “And desert is still hours away…”

Lord Luxford looked around the table. All the plush and nobility of Nujel’m had gathered at the palace to celebrate the birthday of Harry, Lord Luxford’s son.

The Mayor’s wife leaned over and said: “He turned in to a fine young man, your son.”

“Yes, a young man at last,” Lord luxford thought, “the time has come for him to help me out with my little… Project. The boy has a keen eye, he can recruit the people I need for my plans.”

For a brief moment a predatory smile played across his face. Then he turned towards the woman and replied: “Yes, he’s a chip of the old block!”

[Fiction] Highway to Hell

September 22, 2011 By: Mapper Category: Europa News

From the depths of the darkest dungeon a huge howl escaped from the ghostly form of the long undead being which was once known as Mericles. If it had possessed hands it would have smashed them down on the huge stone table in front of it.

It was undead but it was powerful and it had been waiting a long time to find its daughter. It had spied glimpses of her as she had meddled with her abilities as a medium. Hannah had not seen him as he had lurked in the background during her trips into the place between life and death. The place where ghosts dwelled. Whether it was by luck or design she had eluded him and he had waited knowing that at some point her emotions would give her away.

The enormous outburst of emotion known as love and happiness had alerted him to her presence and her plans. There was no way she could hide this from him…

Half deranged with madness and anger as his humanity slipped from him he finalised the spell which would allow him to open the Black Gates from the Void and allow the abominations which dwelled therein to feast upon the citizens of Sosaria.

Soon the spell would be finished and he would have his revenge on the cities of Trammel.

Mericles smiled a monstrous smile grinning from ear to ear as his ghostly form changed into a more substantial one as his desire for revenge fuelled his metamorphosis. The gaping maw of the deamon known as Mericles gaped with row upon row of razor sharp teeth. Mericles flexed his powerful muscles and laughed and smashed the stone table into a thousand fragments.

“Soon”, he said aloud, “Soon my children shall flee from the Void and feast…”
Mericles stomped away, the earth shaking beneath his cloven hooves.

Clues from Thursday led everyone to Trinsic at 8pm last night. Colonel Clegg arrived and recaped the clues, One of the clues stated ‘Hold your breath’ which led him to believe diving would be involved!

Clegg had scouted Trinsic earlier and told of a rather unusual whirlpool at the park, Everyone followed and right enough.. An interesting whirlpool had formed in the small town pond.

Holding onto a rope Clegg jumped into the water and swam towards the ripples, Suddenly he vanished down the hole!

In amongst the stealing of underwear in the crowd, The rope tightened as it was pulled back, bringing Clegg back to the surface.

Clegg said we should all go together and using the keyword ‘Moonlit whirlpool’ you were forced into the pool.

[Report] Opening Wally Swiftknife’s Box

September 14, 2011 By: petra Category: Europa News

At Colonel Clegg’s Office in Serpent’s Hold where a group were debriefing him on clues they had found regarding the mysterious box, currently outside Cleggs office in. A clue led them to Mistas where the key was located!

Excited Clegg opened a gate for the short trek to Mistas.

In a wooden box at Mistas Clegg opened it and slowly took out the key and showed it to the group.

A quick gate back to his office and he wasted no time in inserting the key into the old rusty lock.

*Click!* Finally the chest was open, Inside a Journal:

Quote:
I found it when I was just a young swashbuckler, looking for a crew to join in the harbour of Buccaneer’s Den. It was entirely accidental…I was at the tavern with Captain Blackheart and after a few drinks… well nature called. I must have entered the wrong door cause next thing I knew I was in some sort of cave. I went around a corner to relieve myself. 

The rum had done more than fill my bladder though. When I wanted to turn back, I found myself lost. For hours I wandered though what seemed an endless system of caves, until I could go no further.

That place will come in handy now. It’s perfect for hiding things…

A very short discussion confirmed that the Journal’s Story was talking about the Tavern in Buccaneer’s Den.

Inside the tavern a secret door down some creepy stairs led to the underground tunnels! Clegg asked the group to split up and find whatever Wally was hiding.

Through a secret door a lower tunnel was found FULL of spiders!

Click the image to open in full size.

Once the spiders had been defeated in the tunnel were four locked chests, Clegg said that according to the laws of treasure and all that, the first person to find the key owned the treasure. So the group quickly rushed around the small cavern looking for clues to find keys for the four chests.

—————————————————–

The only key search I was able to see, Thanks to Aron, was the final one.

Quote:
Curses! How could I have been so stupid? It just slipped, fell right
from my hands! And as if that wasn’t bad enough… some horrific creature swallowed it! But I’ll retrieve it. If it’s the last thing I do! 

Luckily we saw where it swam off to: 49o 56’N, 58o 34’E

The coordinates in the book were near Cove, So boarding Aron’s Orc Ship, We set sail!

At the location a nasty creature, A Scalis, Was found! Surely the key had to be on it? After dragging it to land Clegg and a larger group of fighters arrived and a large scale battle began.

After a very long deadly battle the beast was killed!

Click the image to open in full size.

On the corpse, Ailea from [ELV] was lucky in finding the final key to one of the chests.

Click the image to open in full size.

Back at the cavern Ailea sucessfully used the key to open the final chest.

Inside the four chests were the following:

A Scroll Engraved: “Say the magic words and you will be drawn in. Hold your breath! It’s a wild ride…”

A Deed Engraved: “Moonlit Whirlpool”

A broken clock and a book saying: “The clock appears to be broken. The time it indicates i Sunday 8pm.”

And finally a book named “The Burning of Trinsic”

Clegg suggested everyone meet at Trinsic Moongate on Sunday at 8pm UK time to see what the four clues could possibly mean!

Also given out during the event were these Jin-Baori’s:
