Pana Lords sat casually, looking over the group while his teeth quietly ground against each other.  "Count Omik is a madman.  He's been committing all manner of horrid atrocities, and I'm inclined to believe that he arranged for an umbragen to be sent here intentionally.  He has been operating an eldrich machine which bores undead out of Khyber itself, and that weakened the barriers between worlds.  Now there is a gaping portal open, and his machine could threaten the security of Eberron itself."  Pana said, hoping to clarify the methods of the strange man.  "The count speaks little of his motives, but I believe he wishes to become immortal.  He used to be a follower of the Blood of Vol, but now he is a heretic.  He is something altogether far more dangerous now."<br/><br/><br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote"><a href="https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=53854.msg2761579#msg2761579">Quote from: PhantomPistoleer on 20-02-2010, 20:07:53</a></div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote"><br/>At last, the young man found himself standing alone in the room at the end of the ramp.  He searched himself, and sorely desired a steel pipe or a solid wooden club.  He felt that he was going to need it.<br/><br/><br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>The room at the far side of the ramp was a vast open chamber, with rank upon rank of skeletons and zombies standing at attention in it.  Several massive skeletons and zombies patrolled around the room, including a tyranasaurus.  The murky depths of the far end of the chamber were completely invisible, thanks to the darkness, but a steady grinding suggested that something there wasn't right.
