Search for the book of Vile Darkness

Our Mission: Go to Jerico hill and begin our search for the book of vile darkness. It is said to reside on an island in the crystal sea, on top of a mountain, in an open temple, within the well of souls.

Gained passage on a ship to Hammerfall keep.

Told the dwarf what we were looking for after the meal. With some extra information given to the captain, he knows the island we are looking for. The captain and the dwarf are discussing the issue. After a heated discussion the captain finally agrees to take us there.

Found a carved cave opening and killed the two guards posted here.

We passed through a snake filled room. It opens onto the top of the mountain where there is a stone structure with a man cage attached to a chain and winch that hangs over the well. The well is very deep and it is full of swirling magic and detects as slight evil.

We encountered an 8 headed hydra within the pit and defeated it finally. We later learned that it was just an illusion since it disappeared when we killed it. The room it was in was completely empty except for a dime size impression in the floor.

We poured the vial of silver liquid that the solar celestial gave us into the depression in the floor. Writing appeared in the floor in celestial and the floor opened up revealing a pit with stairs down to a pedestal with a book on it. The paladin was nearly overcome with evil when he went to retrieve the book, but he managed to get it and put it in a bag. We think the book is the Book of Vile Darkness we were searching for.

We were rescued out of the pit by a war forged (Sirus) he told us that the ship was sank by pirates and everyone killed. We waited on the island with a fire for 3 months to be rescued. We took all of our stuff and went to Hammerfall keep. We sold all the items and split up the treasure. The dwarves raised our cleric after we talked to the king. Told us the book should be taken to a creature they call the ancient one, on top of a mountain.

Started out for the mountains, crossed the tundra. A large winter storm is approaching so we found shelter in a small overhang during the storm. We were attacked by a small white dragon. After killing the dragon we traveled to the base of the mountain and up a massive staircase to a huge set of doors. Entered the keep and met the Lammasu. Explained to him that we had a book we needed some information about. When we took the book out it fell on the floor and opened. The Lammasu roared and his helper shape shifted into a gold dragon, roared and breathed on the book destroying it.

Must find the regalia of evil and the regalia of good. Each is 3 pieces. 2 of the pieces of the regalia of evil are in the horde lands to the south of Gilhaven. Once found we can take them back to the Lammasu in Hammerfall keep to gain more information
