Alternate Realities--Portal R'lyeh, Party Kadath From: raven@pawl.rpi.edu (Jennifer Lynn Piatek) Date: Mon, 12 Feb 1990 04:23:14 +0000 Hachiro addresses the group: "I recommend that we stay here for the night. This glade will allow us to see enemies before they arrive, a luxury we dont have in the woods. I would request that everyone start setting up camp, for I would like to set out again at first light. I approximate the time to be about 6-7 at night. Dawn should be by 6 at the latest. I would like to also suggest that we do 4 watches of 3 hours each, and have 2 people on each shift. 2 people will not have a shift tonight, but that will be made up for over time. I volunteer for first shift. It also might be a good idea to take a look att the cairn. See what is there and all. Would Midnight and Serroli be so kind as to acompany me to investigate? Any others who wish to accompany us, of course may." With this, he throws everything to the ground, save his swords and armor, and heads into the cairn. Serroli draws his hammer, and heads into the cairn also. *****The Cairn (Hachiro and Serroli)***** Set amid a drift of leaves, the cairn has been built in the form of a 5-foot high truncated cone, the 10 foot diamter base tapering to a top 2 feet across. There is a shallow depression in the top of the cairn that holds a clear, watery liquid. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ "When you are old enough to read these words, their meaning will unfold.
