====Tomb of the Constructor==== The adventurers decided that their first task would be acquiring the Master Key. Tane explained that twenty years ago, an old adventuring companion of his, a master burglar named Davrillo Princarr, had appeared at the Lucky Leap and told him that he'd found the tomb of Master Arlen the Constructor, first Archmage of the kingdom, and intended to plunder it using the Master Key to get inside. Ricio declined, having just opened the tavern and pondering permanent retirement. Princarr never returned, and Tane suspected he had died in the attempt, but he still had the location his old friend had shared with him. Following Princarr's directions, they traveled west to the edge fo the Cloud Peaks, finding that the choking rain and cursed lightning that now fell from the sky were found througout the kingdom. There, hidden by an illusory cliff face, they found a large chamber filled with broken golem pieces and containing a large door with a massively complicated locking mechanism on the front. Staring at the door was a young green dragon. After some discussion, it admitted that it had been unable to open the door, and struck a bargain: if they helped it open the door, it would get full access to all information within as well as half of whatever treasure they found. Upon agreeing, Sylas was able to decipher the process to open the gate. Within the first chamber was a massive statue of Master Arlen in his youth, and several pedestals containing models of his various creations (with descriptive labels). These included the Arcane Tower, the Royal Palace, the king's Falcon Blade, and a multifunctional construction golem called a daedal wright. The first door they entered revealed a room full of broken golem pieces, but nothing of value. The second door opened to a flood of inscribed clay tablets; the room beyond was completely filled with them, floor to ceiling. At the far end of the chamber they found the skeleton of Master Arlen, slumped over his desk. Arlen's ghost floated nearby, dictating complex mathematical theorems to a deadal wright that was furiously writing down his words on a clay tablet. When both ghost and golem ignored them, they looked at the tablets to find them filled with dry, technical, and incredibly long-winded writings on history, medicine, magic theory, construction techniques, and more. His skeleton and what remained of its garments crumbled to dust practically at their touch, but they did find a piece of blue crystal fused into the forehead of his skull; the gem was also visible on the face of his ghost. The final chamber was where they found the skeleton of Davrillo Princarr, a daedal wright standing over it. At the far end of the chamber of a massive iron stove, flanked on one side by a stack of clay tablets and on the other by clay and straw. In the center was a massive spiral staircase descending into the floor. Leon conjured a vine to try and drag Princarr's skeleton closer to them, but succeeded only in removing its leg. They instead stepped into the chamber, which caused the daedal wright to attack them as well. After destroying it, they found the Master Key on Princarr's remains. Lookking down the staircase, they saw that it was just countless walkways and shelves full of clay tablets going down more than two hundred feet. At the bottom they could see two broken golems, which appeared to have had their metal components chewed off. Deciding they had what they came for, they split what little treasure they'd found with the dragon and departed. As the returned to the city, Isabelle inspected the crystal fragment she retrieved from Arlen's skeleton. Though whatever power it granted had long since faded, it store bore faint traces of magic. As they pondered what effects it might once had held, they decided that if they were going to travel together and save the kingdom, they would need a name for themselves, and settled upon the Third Eye.
