    "Put me down!' Merek spat through his drool- strewn teeth. He thrashed, struggling against the hue as it dragged him away, as he felt the halo of psychic praise dim. It was then that he decided he hated being here, once this was over, he would take his prize, and decency be damned if they got in...

    Open Chronicles Mountainhome of the dead

    Merek lurched back as the creature's massive weight thrashed around like a bloated, solid shadow of dripping flesh. He cocked his head in fascination as he saw the skin of the daemon drip thick, wet, unorganic goop onto the harsh, frost- blasted stone. In an instant he crossed the distance...

    Merek stood in silent awe at the creature...it practically burned in an aura of souls, a cloud of terrified, shrieking spectres.

    Open Chronicles Mountainhome of the dead

    Merek heard the hushed, hoarse voice of someone else and curled his lip in a snarl of irritation. The daemon was huge, with scimitar-like claws and a thick spine of obsidian shards pierced into the smoky flesh of its back. It roared and crushed a desiccated corpse under the bulk of its weight...

    Open Chronicles Mountainhome of the dead

    Something was wrong, the death- images did not disappear, instead they haloed the town and hung around every corner, mouthing things Merek couldn't read. He began to understand what the ghost children in his dreams had feared about this place, someone, or something was here that shouldn't be. It...

    Open Chronicles Mountainhome of the dead

    Merek carefully balanced himself on the tenuous rope bridges as he worked his way further up the great chasms and mountains.
