After exploring the ruins for quite some time we came across three of the monsters we were looking for, two already dead and one disguised as a nurse.Once we got back to the checkpoint where the guards were we gave them the heads and they then led us into a chapel area where they were keeping the patients. There we met Winter Klazcka tenant to the Royal Accuser Omari. She told us we were in Briarstone Asylum and that a revolt happened four days ago led by a man named Ulverzandalus. After talking to Winter we were able to rearm ourselves.

We left the chapel to find a way out and after adventuring in the asylum for a while we found three men chained to a pipe all wearing yellow robes, one dead, one eating the dead one, and the last man huddling as far away from the second man as he could. We quickly killed the cannibal and then the man relaxed some. After interrogating him about who Zandalus was and what he did all he said was "Praise Zandalus","Zandalus sees", and "Words fail". We told him as long as he stayed quiet we would come back and let him go.

When we returned to the chapel we had brought the prisoner with us and locked him in a room to see if we could get anything out of him later. We told Winter what we had done and she the told us about a giant eye attached to a wall in one of the corridors hidden behind a curtain. We tried to burn it away but that did not work. The eye then asked who am I become? We brought the cultist to the eye and ask him who the eye sounded like. He did not know. Finally after channeling magic at the eye it proceeded to "Wink out of existence". The cultist ran through the opening in the wall and into the yellow mist.


I awoke in a cell with another man. Only remembering the horrible nightmare I had just suffered through. This man seemed familiar to me, but my thoughts were interrupted by a bloodcurdling scream coming from outside my cell. As I looked out through the bars the man hid behind me as if he already had seen the horrors of what was happening outside.

A man was tied to a table in the center of the room surrounded by various sharp objects. A woman was dancing around the table stabbing him with one these sharp objects while he lied there screaming for help. She only stopped once another prisoner had the guts to start rattling his cells bars and scream at her telling her to stop. As soon as her attention was turned away from the man on the table he took the chance to kick her away from him with the ounce of energy he had left.

She landed against our cell where attempted to grab her and hold her tight against the bars I shouted to my cellmate to grab the keys from her but he acted too late and she got loose of my hold. As she backed towards the table the man kicked her again sending her flying towards our cell again. When we grabbed for her keys it seemed they had been knocked loose off her body and were thrown across the room towards the cell directly across from us.

After this kick the woman went into a rage stabbing the man until he was far past dead, even then she continued. She was so engaged in this bloodlust that she did not see the cell across from us unlock and the person in it come across to unlock ours. When our cell was unlocked, I grabbed a broken weapon from the table and used it to distract the woman while my savior went over to the last cell and unlocked it. This woman attacked me and brought me close to death. Once she realized that the others had escaped too she fled through a hallway and into another room.

The other escaped prisoners ran after her but were unable to follow her through the wooden door for a while. During this time, I looked for actual weapons we could use to kill this woman. I found some ones that looked familiar to me in the rubble of a collapsed part of the room and brought them over to the rest of the group. That’s when they finally got the door open.

Upon entering the room the smell of death was in the air and many bloated, dead bodies could be seen. Chained in the corner was my cat, which I immediately went to free. While I was doing this everyone else went to fight this woman. When I looked back I saw them fighting the thing from my nightmare instead of the woman. One of them soon passed out from their injuries and my cat and I took their place.

Eventually this thing died and myself, the cleric, and my cat were left standing. The paladin and pirate recovered from their injuries and we went about figuring out how to leave this evil place. We found the rest of our gear and a chimney in the room they burned the dead bodies. Our group climbed up the chimney and found ourselves in a boiler room. When we left the room, we were confronted by guards with crossbows. After a brief interrogation from the guards we were tasked to bring the heads of three of the kind of monster we just fought. The Paladin climbed back down the chimney and retrieved the monster’s head. We then adventured down the hallway in search of more of these horrifying monsters.
