For the last week, the Clan has been donning hard-hats and packing the mining picks, as we descended into the vast maze of natural caverns that spread their way underneath the temple of Txevu.

Spelunking through the dank caves, we came across a multitude of ancient creatures eking out their existence in this inhospitable place. We also discovered a number of trusik, hiding deep inside the caves - dead, much like their brethren in Inktu`ta, but unaware or unwilling to let go of their former lives. They fought furiously, seemingly unaware that the temple above had long been overrun - unwilling to give up the key that was rumored to lie here.

One by one the Trusik fell, what remained of their spirits congregating in a room to the north. With the final trusik destroyed, a booming voice shook the cavern just ahead - we knew that we were close to our prize.

Finally, we stood before the High Priest, an ornate jade key resting in his palm. We knew that there was to be no turning back, and without the key, we would have no hope of freeing Taelosia from the clutches of the Legion of Mata Muram.

Pieces of the cavern fell around us, shaking the foundations of the temple above - as this High Priest let loose the full fury of Trushar upon us. Still the battle raged on, and both the Clan and the Priest became wearied, but soon the tide of war turned against this disciple of Trushar, and his misguided anger was extinguished.

Congratulations Arex on Bow of the Whispering Wind!
Congratulations Siilvir on Bulwark of Living Stone!

Stay tuned for more action and misadventures as the Clan makes their way toward their ultimate goal, the defeat of the Muramite army!
