Prologue:

The clear bright crystal moonlit night accented every rock and plant along the mountain pass as Sh’evil made her way to an undisclosed location for a ‘business’ deal of the darkest nature.

She was to meet with a wizard to exchange items, so that she could obtain an item of the purest, blackest evil, which could aid her in continuing her black arts to the next phase of development

As she neared the mountaintop clearing, she saw the Wizard was already present.

"Do you have my items, Sh’evil Winter?" the wizard spoke abruptly.

"Aye, I do. Have you mine?" She answered. Sh’evil distrusted this man. Her very core told her it was going to be a black night indeed.

The wizard leveled his gaze on Sh’evil, a slight spark was noted in his gaze, as he surveyed his visitor.

The air around them was charged with electricity and tension.

He reached in his robe to produce a small worn leather satchel. He held it out by the drawstrings. Swinging in the air. This is what she had been questing for. This would make her a very powerful person in her black art.

Her heart soared with the divine hatred of Innoruuk.

A rare globe of petrified ebon drake blood. A globe to help create and dispatch her wrath, all across Norrath.

She quickly produced an object covered in black velvet wrapping. Pulling at its drawstring the velvet fell from around the object. The darkness was interrupted. A scepter. This scepter gleamed so, that it hurt the eyes to look upon it. The staff of the Ancients. The staff of the Universe…

The wizard stepped forward to claim his prize. Thrusting the bag into Sh’evil hand, and ripped the scepter from her grasp. He calmly walked a few paces away, and turned to face her.

She opened the flap on the satchel, to see that the item was nothing more than a clay globe. ‘Treachery’ she thought. Looking up at him, he had a hideous grin on his face. Staff in hand, area lit as to be day… he began casting a spell.

Sh’evil threw up her shield spell and began casting a spell that would rid him of his strength. No sooner had the word hit her lips than she was hit with a spell that knocked her to her knees. She was stunned. She regained her senses, climbing to her feet, she began muttering her words, thoughtlessly, reflexively. The spell hit the wizard with the sound of a small explosion from within. The Wizard grabbed his chest. He stumbled, weakened from within.

He started the motions for casting again. Sh’evil then set upon the Wizard with her dagger, interrupting his spell. She mutters a second spell jolting his body with coursing poison. He drops the staff. She picks it up only to strike it upon the ground breaking it. Destroying it forever more.

She is hit with steel spikes. Reeling, she casts shadow step, and teleports near by. Low on health and mana she casts gate to escape. She appears in Nectulos Forest. Quickly summoning her guild mates she tells them what she can of her experience…

By now you know her demise… here is what you need to know now.

Quest:

Sh’evil has angered a very powerful wizard that has turned on her. She is to be sacrificed 3 times to in hope that that will end her time in Norrath, so that she will cease to exist. If the sacrifices are successful and the bodies not recovered, then she will be done for.

Goals:

1. Recover the 3 bodies

Hints on body location:

Body one: "This body was sacrificed in this place, so the ancient magic of these mystical beings could trap her magic to keep her essence from returning."

Body two: "This body was sacrificed in this place because the corruption and the pollution, and its secret-ness of this area would forever hide her away, so much so that help could never arrive to aid her as her body rots in its watery grave."

Body three: "This body was sacrificed in this place so that her body would be consumed in a blazing fury. Forever keeping her in the beyond."

When the bodies are located and retrieved a second event ‘may’ begin.

Exempt from participating are Sh’evil, Zzons, Mildred, Curdardh.

Only one may claim the body from /consent by Sh’evil, but if that person found the body with help from other ‘guild members’, they should cut the others in on the loot.

When a body is found they should /tell me with /location of the body for verification. At that time /consent will be given.

Extra clues will be given by /guildsay if a body is not recovered in a timely manner.

Difficulty: All bodies can be recovered by a lvl 8 or above character with invis. or by all good races.

Good luck.
