Quest Summary:
For two days, the sun was suddenly blotted out, prompting the heroes of the realm to rise to come to its aid. Tammuz had discovered the presence of several dangerous cultists on the estate of Urian Delacourte, a noble of some prestige, but not much wisdom, as he was the last heir of the Delacourte line, and foolish with his money and the people he spent time with. Among them were cultists, left over from the Dark One's invasion of Avalon City. He soon became lured by power…and then betrayed and possessed by a glabrezu, who intended to use him as a vessel to allow the Dark One and Apophis to act in alliance and blot out the sun all over the world, forever, using something called the Pyramid of Darkness. But the party were able to pass through the dangerous rooms of the ritual, passing rooms of Bone, Blood, Breath, and Sense, and then fighting the glabrezu itself, forcing it from Urian's body. The young noble was abject in his apologies, and was given some clemency by the Council of Avalon City. Enough so that he was allowed to devote himself to the service of Tamara for the rest of his life as a healer, giving his all in service to the poor of Avalon City. But according to Tammuz's research, there was supposed to be an evil halfling, and golems as well protecting the place. But neither of these were found. It seems, then, that the cult lives on…as do their plans.
