+ | * The players find themselves in a dream of the Golden Age of the world, where the Empire of Rastaban was at its largest. | ||
+ | * They partake as an elite fighting force responsible for breaking the seige on a castle on a hill, which they are instrumental in securing. | ||
+ | * Over a victory feast, they speak to others in Rastaban who have adopted characters within the dream. | ||
+ | * Afterwards, they are clearing bodies into a large fire, when something goes wrong - a body screams when put into the flame, refusing to die. The sky seems to crack. | ||
+ | * Retreating into a gatehouse, the party fend off an attack from more risen bodies, and an entity which brings them back to life. They move from here into a shifting maze of impaled bodies, before retreating into a twisted kind of temple. They confront another impaled figure inside, who compels them to kneel. | ||
+ | * Defeating a gigantic composite corpse, reality seems to crack once more, nothingness pouring in. Cold light illuminates a desolate void, as the party fight corpses again. Corpses and party members alike that find themselves caught in certain lights disappear entirely. | ||
+ | * The party members that disappear are almost swept into an outer darkness, but claw their way back towards warmth. However, so too does an unsettling non-human entity that was reviving corpses earlier. | ||
+ | * Suddenly, all is well. The party walk down a long row of applauding soldiers, who sing a marching song from earlier. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Glory, glory to Rastaban\\ | ||
