The Music of the Abyss
Rustling, grating, squeaking, and humming, a thousand mind-bending little voices — a vescavor swarm stands in the way of the crusader army. It's not the sort of opponent that these valorous knights expected to fight — not an enemy army, not even a huge monster, but a horde of tiny gluttonous beasts, able to pick a soldier to the bone, armor and all. Victory over the swarm will require desperate measures.
Objectives
- Get to the swarm queenKill the queen, and the swarm will scatter. Every minute spent on this quest will be dearly bought by the lives of those busily distracting the bulk of the vescavors. Somewhere in a cave nearby, there are valuables that the beasts will destroy if they're not quickly retrieved. It comes down to a choice: life or treasure.
- Discuss the finds with the companionsThe cave where the swarm nested holds some interesting finds — signs that the swarm did not end up in the army's path by accident. It's time to take stock and discuss this new information.
- Each minute the Commander spends searching for loot, the bait troops suffer heavy losses
- The lives of soldiers versus the valuables left by a wayward caravan. Perhaps it's a worthy trade?
- The troops up there are finding it harder and harder to fight
- Only a few fighters are left of the squad assigned to distract the vescavors
