Resolution 2020: Tainted Grail The Fall of Avalon play through
Chapter 7
So Orrin would not help Beor unless Beor proved himself by helping to restore the Order, or by becoming a hero of the people. Beor had already helped several of the Knights of the Round table, so he decided he would travel to Kamelot and continue to aid them.
But first the Menhir in Orrins home was the only one that would grant access to the rest of the southern coast of Avlaon, so Beor decided to light it and explore the region before starting the long trek back East. Beor travelled north to Farshire, then west to Devestation and then Riverfall. He could travel no further along the coast as Wyrdness had engulfed the west of Avalon.
In Riverfall there was an abandoned toll house with a hidden cellar beneath. In it Beor found supplies and a disturbing locked chest which he chose to take with him. Then Beor scaled down the cliffs to reach one of the three faces that were carved in there. Entering the mouth of the face Beor advanced down a tunnel through trickling water until he reached a rock slide that blocked the tunnel. Undeterred, Beor started to clear the rocks until suddenly the water burst through – perhaps this had not been a good idea. Grasping the walls with all his strength to stop him from being flushed away, Beor struggled on against the current. Soon he could see light ahead, and then he emerged from the tunnel.
Beor had found the hidden way into Tuathan! His eyes burned to look upon the Wyrdness infested landscape. Buildings of impossible complexity protruded at impossible angles. This was not going to be easy…
That was an unexpectedly quick chapter. One hour for me to stumble across the entrance to Tuathan by accident. Still the exploration was fun. I’ll have to finish exploring the other areas in the south of the island when I return here in later chapters.
