Her face seems contorted with rage at Mal's words. Somehow what he said bit down far deeper.
"I do now woreship Lolth, she will grow to woreship me when I ascend. Those others who were smart enough to follow me to the surface have joined me. All apart from the troublesome hero, Drizzt Do'Urdon. You half-elf...you will be the first one to die!" she sneers and then turnes to look at Xenthrow and then smirks. "First I shall show you the one who is going to kill you." moving her arm down for the signal and you all fall into darkness
Whisper:
You feel yourself decend into darkness and then stop suddenly, landing on your feet. It felt more like a 10ft drop though. You look around to see some old area of woreship, built of wood and with different symbols on the walls to those in Beregost. This temple has many bugbears, goblins and hobgoblins sitting around in woreship. On closer examination you see that their eyes appear dead and flesh rotting off their bones. At the top on a pedastool is a Goblin priest of somekind, a exact mirrior of the horrid creature in the temple where Kyras got the spores off of. His right side of the face is covered in living moul and fungi and his eyes shine a blood red. None of these beings sees you apart from one that catches your eye. You hear the the serphentine hiss of a creature as your eyes focus on a man dressed in thick black armour, wearing a dark robe with a hood to hide his face. The amulet and rings he wears appear ancient. You notice this man has scaled skin and as he looks up to you he also has slitted pupils like that of a snake. Everything goes dark around you two and he gets up, walking closer to you.
"Well if it isn't my little girl, Whisper or so I hear you are called. I would've given you a much more fitting name. Taught you in the arcane arts as well as teaching you the pleasures of life." he grins at the suggestive comment. "I am the champion of the Dark Mistress and she has offered me a bounty for your head. She has also told me if I managed to convince you to join us I was allowed to keep you. How about it daughter, want to come home to daddy?" with this he leers into your eyes with his own snake-like eyes, hypnotising you and drawing you in. Soon you don't know why but you are completely under his spell, doing whatever he commands but before he get's the chance to go any further than removing your leather armour you wake up back in Beregost, just as you were sitting on the bed with the ink and everything perfectly balanced.

Solaria:
You decent into a spinning darkness, stopping as walls come up around you. At first you don't know where you are, but then you notice the similar buildings, familiar sand. Yes, you are back home. However you appear to be in a home you've not been in before. Your brother's home as you notice the wife you briefly met. Soon you see your brother who looks direcetly at you and smiles. The world becomes black with only you two and he speaks in the tongue of your people.
"Sister...we've been looking everywhere for you. We decided to bring you back into the family. Apparently there are a few families who would love to have their son marry you for trade, just as long as you give up this silly magic using and you remember your place everything will be fine. Also never summon that disgusting creature from whatever world it comes from." after your answer he scowls you "How dare you defile the name of our family by being a whore and travelling with complete strangers! I am going to bring you back home, one way or another. Your father never knew who my true father was!" and with that he smirks, floating up slowly in the air as symbols appear all over his body, charging up some kind of arcane energy. "You will feel the wrath of the son of a Janni!" as he blasts you with energy you stirr from your sleep, escaping the darkness and pain. You are back in your room in Beregost.

Badger:
You fall and find yourself infront of a bunch of Gnomes who appear pale-skinned and grin as they see you.
"Ah, Badger Woods. It's a pity you had to get involved in this quest and had to march against our lady." you notice that this Gnome is someone from your village. A Gnome who didn't like you and considered you not a Gnome and even supposidly tried to hunt down the other races, however he was never this pale nor did you see any of these other Gnomes as being pale. "Our training in the Arcane arts and following our master, Xenthrow. I will become the most powerful Gnome in the whole of Faerun." with a grin he waves his hands, creating illusions of great and powerful battles. The town of Beregost in flames, cities being leveled to dust and a grand temple lifting out of the ground and ascending into the sky. Just as he shows you this you find yourself waking up as he forces you awake by thrusting his staff into your face. You wake up back in Beregost, perfectly safe and nothing amiss.

Kyras:
As you fall through darkness you feel as if the shadows are watching you. Stopping you find yourself face-to-face with a noble-man of somekind who smiles crookedly at you.
"Hmm...a alchemist? I've been wanting to meet one of you." as he says this he circles around you, examining you with a hungry look in his eyes. "I've only ever tried a wizard and they're intelligent. Yes, very juicy. I wonder what yours will taste like?" he asks and this time his face get's uncomfortably closer to yours, his head streaching beyond normal human lengths revealing a sharp blue tongue and rows of horrible teeth. You wake up just before they close.

Malstei:
You land in what appears to be a simple hut. Here you take a glance around and see a Orc sitting upon a throne. Near him is a creature that sees you. This one looks like a Orc, but your training as a ranger and hunting these things down tells you this one is not a Orc. It has scaled skin and vicious intelligent eyes. Intelligence you have never seen in a Orc and sharp teeth that make you think of whisper's. This beast looks to you and the area turns black as it steps over to you.
"You are to be my prey? Ha! Don't make me laugh." as he walks around you a tail follows his trail leading from his body. "I, Grand Warrior of the great tribe of the Beast Commander have a mere Elf as my opponent? Your people hated Orcs for so long, but my other heritage insults your training as a ranger. Yes...you see it don't you? I am a half-dragon. Full orc, but with some of the abilities of a Dragon. You killed my master's men on the road and now I shall chase you and your pathetic little group down. After I kill you I shall feast on your flesh." the creature grins as it looks at you, licking it's lips in deep throught. It breaths in and then expells a breath of burning green acid and you wake up, finding yourself thankfully unharmed and back in Beregost.

Agathon:
As you descend into darkness you hear a similar sound of a populated town. You recognise the area as Waterdeep, somewhere you stopped your boat and began your jurney to find and raise a army. As you look about there are few people on the street, which is normal however a pale man in the corner sees you and you are suddenly moved to him. Soon the area lights up and you are in some basement, filled with kegs. Different men here with pale skin and yellow eyes, walking about and some even taking a mere notice of you. You are confused until you suddenly hear a voice whisper into your ear.
"Behind you, brother." as you turn you see before you, smirking is Persevus the brother who died in battle and his own flesh is also twisted and pale. "I'm here to bring you and our brother back home. Martain is somewhere in this filthy land and once I have you both, I will take you to our great king, Suviantholus. He is a great man brother, the town is happy with him there. Father is waiting too, waiting in chains. If you come with me, his suffering will be over as will yours." you can't help but notice as he makes this offer his eyes are also yellow like those in the area with him. "Like my new skin? The King's seer brought me back more powerful than before. Blades have difficulty cutting my skin as these poor saps found. as you look back at the men they all appear weaker than your brother, afflicted it seems. "See you soon brother. Find that drunken bafoon too so we can all be one big happy family again."

You all wake up in the morning at the same time, fearful and covered in cold sweat from the fear of the encounter you all had.
