HPNWW #9 The Oracle of Thanatos Game Over Evil Wins
Posted: Wed Dec 02, 2015 11:01 pm
Day breaks at the Oracle of Thanatos. This is the third day of the siege and all cultists are feeling optimistic. Word has reached you that the besieging army does not have enough supplies for a lengthy siege. This combined with your impenetrable defenses means all you have to do to survive this attack is wait.
It seems as though life will proceed as normal. You will continue to sacrifice the weak and infirm among you to confer with Thanatos god of Death.
The peaceful morning is shattered by a blood-curdling scream. Cultists come rushing from all over the temple towards the source of the disturbance. They find a grisly sight, the Abbott dead in her chamber, her servant weeping at the foot of the bed.
The weapon protruding from her chest is unmistakable, a Greek doru. A note scrawled in blood hangs from the end of the spear.
“Your defenses may be mighty you perversions of nature but now we walk among you. You shall all perish unless you surrender at once unconditionally. We will grant you each an honorable death if you do. If you chose not to this will be each of your fates.”
All cultists look to each other with horror. You know that those responsible walk among you. Best find them and offer them up to Thanatos before they make short work of you.
