His vision was just clear enough to determine that the books were still intact. He wrapped them up carefully. These sacks he'd taken had proven their worth time and again. “Could one of the items we already found in the treasure room be the Morenthianplugin-autotooltip__default plugin-autotooltip_bigMorenth

He remembered something… Before he'd passed out, he'd felt something under the splintered panel. “We've been asleep for a while. Who knows what has transpired while we were out. Only one more room to check for the priest. It troubled me that he has vanished.”
Kreemon took long deep breaths, until he felt like he could stand, “I don't know why there would be a trap like that under the desk. It would have hit the priest too.” Slowly, Kreemon's vision returned to normal, and his legs felt a little less wobbly. Once in charge of his faculties, Kreemon carefully removed the splintered panel to see what lay beneath it. Just pulling at the splinters out made him a little woozy, as little piles of the toxic dust were disturbed.
Under the wood was an aged sheet of smooth cloth, whose bright colors had faded over time, but which still depicted a complex scene where the Sign of Morenthplugin-autotooltip__default plugin-autotooltip_bigMorenth

Those who refuse to acknowledge this simple, self-evident fact heretics, and deserve punishment or death. There is no repentance for heretics stretched over the surface of a map, the snakes and goat legs reaching beyond the circle to claim unnamed territories. Under that, he found some almost in-tact snake skeletons – at least that deterrent was long dead – and a small but very heavy stone box. He carefully lifted the box out of the hole, again almost passing out from the dust. A portion of the box had been carved out to fit a round iron lock with a tiny keyhole.
Kreemon tried to pick up the snake remains, but they crumbled to dust. Only the lack of air flow had kept them together. At least the box and cloth stayed intact when he set them on the desk. He looked over the map and asked, “You recognize anything here?” It was hard to get a sense of scale from the map. It clearly had not been created by a cartographer. That could have been the peninsula of Callipe, and that could have been the bay between Habermacher and Ohels, but with no indication of scale, it was impossible to tell for sure.
Kreemon closed his eyes, waiting out a wave of dizziness. When his vision cleared, he examined the lock more closely. It was set into the rock. If it could be broken, it would have to be forced inward; there was no protrusion that could be snapped off. Or maybe if something could be jammed into the keyhole, the rusted mechanism might just break. It was hard to tell. He poked the lock with his finger, and it felt a bit loose.
Kreemon took one of the priests' daggers and jammed the point into the locking mechanism. He twisted it violently, destroying the half-millennium old metal. Ziedonplugin-autotooltip__default plugin-autotooltip_bigZiedon

There were no clouds of dust, no poison darts, just a small roll of parchment, old when it was put into the box, and now crushed by the force of the pushed lock cylinder. Kreemon picked it carefully out of the box, and saw that the inside bottom of the box was engraved with a symbol he didn't recognize – a pentagon with a small circle inside each corner. In the center was a curved line and three straight lines. The straight lines met in the middle of the curved line, hitting it at three angles. Kreemon took his time flattening the roll of parchment, which seemed like it would fall apart with very little provocation, and read what was written on it.

My desire to keep it out of the wrong hands has led me to you. Please keep it safe, and if you do read it, which I respectfully discourage, do not let it affect your actions, however it may affect your mind.

Two houses at war, two homes destroyed, two dwellings rebuilt. The course is one. The war ends with a new house, a house ruled by a lord who wants not, who feels not, who cares not. Let this house, this home, this dwelling, be called as Moureth, and its shield splay the ibex of one and the serpent of one. Let two houses be purified, distilled, rendered to one, and let this one be the house of Moureth. Thus the end of death, the end of war, the end of strife. This is my command, this my will obeyed.

Kreemon examined the box, pressing down on the symbol in different areas, to see if there was a further hidden panel within the box. There wasn't anything obvious, so he closed it and put it into his backpack to dispose of later. “I think there is just one more passage,” he said. “That must be where his Holiness went.”
On the way out of the room, Kreemon took the snake eggs, wrapped them up carefully and put them in his pack. He then led the way back along the tunnel to the decrepit library, but the library didn't look at all like he'd left it. What remnants of bookshelves and doors had been there before were shattered. Dust filled the air, its musty stench stinging eyes and noses. A mountain of rubble blocked the two passages on the southeast – the last, untraveled tunnel, and the way out.

Perhaps the encounter with the Golden Priest taught the town what a spell looked like, because the crowd reacted instantly. “It's one of the sorcerer's followers!” “No, it's the sorcerer himself, back from the grave!” Some of the crowd fell back.

An invisible wave flowed through the crowd, bringing a heavy sadness in its wake. The frightened crowd wilted. The spell actually calmed some of them, but others were raised to a new level of panic.

His hazel eyes seem to see everything around him. Ziedon's white hair is cut short in the traditional townsman's style. Ziedon's garb is of a well-to-do townsman. He normally wears a thin, off-white shirt with eleven pairs of wooden knobs and strings in the front with a brown and green band of cloth was laid across his sh… out of the public guildhall, to see whether the big fermentation vats were still there. His memory of the place must have been confused with the large brewery back home in Elgony. Here, there were only a few old barrels too old or damaged for salvage.
Kreemon sat on the floor of the brewery, wondering what to do. Soon, he got up and set off for a laundry not too far from the boarding house, where he found an anxious owner jealously guarding the place, four women with large sticks backing him up. When Kreemon held out four gold attles and asked to borrow the place for a few days, the owner was all too happy to give up his post. The vats were sealed wood with stone bases, but they could probably get hot enough to loosen the flesh off of corpses. When the owner and his workers left, he filled the vats with ice, and brought wood from the wreckage to fuel the fire. He left them there to heat, and, wearing a heavy apron he'd taken from a damaged butcher shop, he found an abandoned house whose cellar still had a few feet of usable space, and butchered the collected corpses. Over several trips as noon rapidly transitioned into evening, he wheeled the somewhat lighter bodies to the laundry. He washed his apron and the wheelbarrow first, then dumped in bodies until the steaming water was dark with blood.
