Kreskin’Lal’s Tower

Following the successful completion of the Noir’s Lair Mission, the leadership of the Centaur Council looked for a new challenge. From what we learned in Noir’s Lair it appeared that there was a link between the the curse placed on the elven race that leaves its males debilitated, and the Equus, and thence to Jibu Ramess, the Black Mare, the goddess of the Dark Centaurs. This curse is said to have been the work of Kreskin’Lal, and there are also rumours that it was this powerful ancient sorcerer and evil warlord who first turned the Dark Centaurs to evil.

If this is so then the truth may lie in Kreskin’Lal’s tower, his ruined stronghold which is said to lie in the foothills of the Spirit mountains in the far west of Winterward. Chaldan Ironhoof has therefore announcing that Kreskin'Lal's Tower will be the location for the new Centaur Council mission. This may be no easy matter though, - others have sought it in the past, few have returned, and none have succeeded in discovering its secrets. This has included a previous attempt by the Centaur Council in association with the Terin’Sha (see Hoofprints 3).

However Chaldan is confident that our members and associated allies will be strong & organised enough to overcome any of the powerful evil magics and fell monsters that guard the Tower.

Achieving the complete investigation of Kreskin'Lal's Tower and solving the mysteries inside, particularly if this leads to the solution to the Elven curse, would prove to be a huge triumph for our Fae cousins and ourselves. To this end the Centaur Council has proffered an invite to other interested parties to accompany us to this Tower, and representatives of the Terin’Sha, the Assembly, and the Black Tower are accompanying the mission.

As with the CC mission to Noir's Lair, new Centaur Council mission participants will be able to take advantage of a generous grant to boost their armour or weapons, plus food, healing potions and teleport costs. Non-CC members will be offered a grant at the discretion of the Centaur Elders, upon a suitable application.  

The Mission to Kreskin’Lal’s tower is now en route from Icehaunt via White Citadel and Castle Canterbury. Our first scout, She-Kargo, has reached the vicinity of the Tower, and has sent back the disturbing news that their are signs of activity from within - it is not the abandoned ruin reported by previous explorers. What remains unchanged is that the Tower is  permanently shrouded in mist, however.
