agony. Though Ognit seemed
unfazed by the atmosphere,
Dabner and Dagda were very
skittish about their journey
down into the Hole.
Dabner swore that the sounds
were none other than the
ghosts of Erudites slain
during the great war that
destroyed the old city years
ago. Ognit hypothesized that

Dabner swore that the sounds

during the great war that
destroyed the old city years

page 2
the strange noises were
caused by undercurrents of
wind wafting from the surface
above and were nothing to be
concerned about. Dagda knew
not the cause of the sounds
but she was sure that the
three of them should not be
in that place.

After spending some time
exploring the ruins and

wandering deeper into the
cavern, the three came across
the very thing for which
Ognit had been searching.
Before them stood The Hatch
and the wall of Living Stone.
The Living Stone is an
artifact of great power
created by Brell Serilis the
purpose of which was to stop
the creatures from the Plane
of the Underfoot from

system that kept the Living
Stone strong after the
earthen Lord Yael escaped
and threatened their
destruction with his army
of elementals.
Ognit sought to study both
The Hatch and the wall of
Living Stone. He felt that
the Erudites were simply not
qualified for that sort of
Stone strong after the
earthen Lord Yael escaped

Ognit sought to study both
The Hatch and the wall of

the Erudites were simply not
qualified for that sort of

study and indeed it would
take the delicate and careful
touch of a gnome to properly
study the artifact and
perhaps find a way to harness
its power. History has a way
of repeating itself.
Ognit considered the first of
his experiments successful.

He found that the wall of
Living Stone was able to

release enormous amounts
of power, as evidenced by
the tremendous earthquakes
he was able to cause simply
by infusing the Hatch with
just a small amount of
magical energy. Indeed, it
seemed the two worked
together like a transformer,
turning small amounts of
energy into tremendous
surges of power. Though he

had no idea how one could
harness the released energy,
he was impressed with the
results nonetheless.
Dagda was terrified and
believed that the gnome was
tinkering with powers beyond
his comprehension. She
threatened to leave them both

Dagda was terrified and

threatened to leave them both

the experiments began to

cause earthquakes of greater
and greater magnitude.
Against her better judgement,
she stayed.
Ognit saw the greater
earthquakes as a sign that
his experiments were going
well. He was getting even
better power output for the
same amount of energy.

Dabner eventually began

to become frightened too
and started to side with
Dagda, urging the wizard
to abandon the experiment.
Ognit was incensed and
no amount of convincing
would deter him from
his experimentation.
