Session 11: The forge of Ribhus Report

General Summary

Leaving the old man behind they enter the forge, and the annex. They find a tunnel leading into the dark and a hallway with ornamental copper gateways with insignia above. Irritated at the unknown mekanism they go back and enter into the main building of the forge. a massive library and antikvarium with a large tellurium ticking away in the center, the crw do not know what this means and Thordun break of a part. a zone of silence is activated and massive metal hounds enter the room to fight. Much damage is done to the tellurium but the Nadigav 3 come out on top and make their way deeper into the forge. here they find indications of something- or someone - massive living here and it is also here in the end at a massive banquet that they find Ribhus, an ancient mandran caught in magical ice. He establishes psychic contact with them and they parley. He says he was caught here in magical glass by a tripalkin woman, who after he had finished some work for here did something to the forge and encapsulated him here. He had four massive forgestones, which must be returned in some form or another-perhaps just some of them. He also says that he was friendly to the villagers and did not know anything about any flame or earth elementals.  The group readies themselves to help him, especially after Ribhus promises to forge them some great tools and artifacts as payment for his freedom. The get the pathphrase to the forge, and enter through the ornate portal into a massive room storming with magical energy and several warding staves which are at fault. Elementals are continously created and only the staves can stop it - so they must be colelcted. Coming close to death the crew manages it. And through Tordunns rage, Killians song and drum and finally the raging storm Søren wrests from the magic, they calm it down.   Another place Muk Yuk and Uradil are ambushed by a hitsquad paid by the tripalkin. Form the dying they hear that their friends are in danger, as a much stronger group has been sent after them. So Muk turns away from the path to his temple and turns to the village of bjerglys. Here he and uradil see numerous signs of fighting with dead semi humanoid earthen structures everywhere. In the forest Muk Yuk and Uradil are aprehended by a strong force of tinnings men on their way to the forge, warned by the old man. And they are brought along with the arresting force.
