Location:
Hidden Tomb on Easter Island
Adamas lead the team into the hallway. He
could hear that the darkness of the tomb was slowing the other down as they
walked single file. He decided to get into the hallway to see if his Ethereal
vision improved. He would then wait for the team.
When Adamas entered the corridor he saw it
was lined with ancient hieroglyphics. The walls, ceiling and floor were all
entirely covered. He could not read them and didn’t spend any time trying to.
Adamas moved down the corridor. He positioned
himself to try to see ahead and check behind. He saw that CX was behind him. He
wasn’t sure if Black Orchid was or wasn’t. His Ethereal Vision couldn’t see her
when she was invisible.
He looked ahead where the corridor had
another hallway. He saw it lead to another room. He could see human shaped
bodies but he couldn’t tell if they were human or alive. The stone and earth
must have a strong lead content. He was having a difficult seeing clearly.

Note: here is Adamas’ Ethereal Vision view of what is ahead}
Adamas reached for the amulet
that has become second nature... only to realize he left it with Donna.
Ever the mother hen, Adamas
ensured everyone is in the tunnels, awaiting the others to catch up before
moving through the room with the hieroglyphs.
He saw that Thunderhead and
Jack Frost joined the others in the corridor. Thunderhead stopped to read the
hieroglyphs.
Ten
thousand years ago a race of men journeyed here from a faraway planet. The trip
took many generations. There was a colony here on Easter Island, but when the
travelers arrived they found that it had been destroyed by Earthly creatures.
The new people erected the great stone heads in honor of the previous colony,
and they built their own magnificent city around them. For hundreds of years
they prospered, and grew proficient in the occult arts. Their king in those
days was named Cor, and he begged the wizards to stop their dealings with the
demons from beyond. But they did not, and finally they called forth a great
demon which consumed their whole city. Then King Cor fought the demon and slew
it, saving a handful of his subjects. He himself did not survive the battle. A
secret tomb was build for him, guarded by undead spirits and cursed by the
vengeful demons.
Adamas heard Redhawk’s dual vibe blasts
smashing stone. While he couldn’t hear voices coming from the other room it was
good to know that loud sounds could still be heard from faraway.
Adamas said, "I see
figures up ahead, but I can't tell if they are alive or statues...
