Here are a few descriptions I used when I ran this adventure from my group. Inaccurate, condescending, but no less boldly made by the explorer.
Halkueem Zan’s Descriptions
Kaukarriki- A population of furry humanoid creatures has been following our progress through the jungle. At first they avoided us but eventually started to assault us with rotten fruit and feces. One flew from the tree branches and stole my hat. I ordered my huntmaster to have his men open fire. After slaying several dozens of the creatures the rest fled. I regained my headgear and taught the wilderness the first lesson of many to come about who is master. I have named these vermin monkey-bats.
Obelisk- An immense pillar, nay, an Obelisk arising higher than the trees. Clearly this monument was built by the savages of this land to reach the gods. Were one to take the time to dig below they would most likely find the most valued treasures of the tribe brought here as tribute. I have neither the time or desire to unearth what is likely to be the worthless baubles (to civilized men ) and decayed remains of loved ones left here as sacrifices.
The Plague Warden-A grand statue of an alien creature dying of a wasting disease implores the uncaring gods to save it from its plight. The boils of its disease gained no doubt, from tribal cannibalism or other such savage practice, riddle its body in horrific and painful fashion. A grand construction used to hold those struck down with this apparently common malady.
B3-Poor construction has allowed rain water to flow into this room and fill a pit likely used to grow food (fungus and grubs) that would feed the outcasts forced to live in this plague hut. For the safety of my men I had them avoid the water.
B4-Depictions of primitive medicine men lancing the boils of the infected patients.
B5-A poorly made room with so many holes in the walls I could see in virtually every direction. Primitive craftsmanship indeed!
B6-A platform likely used to fling the bodies of dead plague victims to the earth below.
