Summary
Trailer
Lighting cracks against a pitch black sky. For a moment, you see a man dressed in holy robes, standing at the edge of a cliff. A swarm of bats fly past him and as they leave he vanishes from your sight. More bats fly past and the camera pans with them, away from the cliff and towards a castle.
The camera pans over to the top of a castle, revealing it has been modeled after a black dragon. The camera enters through a crack in the roof, slowing down and centering on a man, leaning back in a blood red chair. His skin is pale as a sheet. He drinks some kind of wine from a goblet with one hand, and his other hand cradling a lute.
The doorway to his opulent room flings open as a man runs in and falls to one knee. ”Master! The forest guard has fallen. The thieves are coming this way.”
The man in the chair stops slouching and stands upright. "It’s about time, they stole something very important. Tell the guards to get ready. Kill them all."
Chapter 20: Vanquish the Horrible Curse
August 17, 1236 AD
The party awakens, renewed and full of energy. Fi checks on the Harpy Egg and feels it kick. He figures less than 1 week remains until it hatches. He leaves it with the green people of the forest and proceeds towards the castle.
The drawbridge of the front gate lowers long enough to release two skeletal dinosaurs. Two undead archers fire on the party atop a tower as a ghostly cleric commands skeletons to close the gate. The party overwhelms them and dispatches them, lowering the bridge for those who can't fly.
Nidri and Hawk notice a holy symbol of Virton next to a shred of cloth bearing the Kolphan family crest. As they approach a light emerges and forms into Reval Kolphan, a member who must have died maybe 200 to 300 years ago.
