Session 66

PCs (lvl 19): Alexander, Broch, Tarlyn, Yincan

The party arrives in an enormous chamber colored in pastels. A forest of massive, many-hued columns support the ceiling. Awaiting them in the chamber is the Soulmonger, together with her pet Steel Defender and a pair of Drow Shadowblades. The PCs fight these servants of Shadowthrone, and recover the two coins that were stolen from them.

They take a short rest, and they they explore the chamber. They find a few magical items, and most importantly a secret passage behind a balck throne, leading to the Treasure Room.

This imposing chamber has a silvered ceiling, just as the foyer has, so it is brightly illuminated by reflected light. The walls are of ivory with gold inlaid. The floor is polished agate. 

Near the center of the room is a large bronze urn filigreed in gold. On the southern wall stands a granite sarcophagus that appears to be damaged. Flanking the sarcophagus are two large iron chests.

Inside the chests the PCs find vast quantities of treasure; when they check the sarcophagus, they find whatever remained of the once mighty Acererak: a broken skull, with a platinum coin embedded in its eye-socket. Could this be Shadowthrone's last coin?
