Gemspark Mine

The Gemspark Mine was a mine in Damara that was known for its riches. The mine was rich in gems, such as quartz and hematite. It was inhabited by an orcish clan, and governed by the chieftain.

History
When the three adventurers, Rhannek, Illius and Zhai, entered the mine, Zhai commented that she had heard about its riches since she was a child. Illius believed that there were orcs around the bend. He was proven correct when the team were ambushed by orcs. After slaying these orcs, several crysmal spiders descended upon them, and a pair of orc archers began to let fire.

The group made it into the throne room, where orcs appeared, but this time threw sleeping gas at the party. Rhannek and Illius were caught and thrown into a cage, whilst Zhai disappeared into the shadows. She managed to slay the orcs and rescued her companions.

The orc chieftain rushed into the room where the companions stood, and tried to bring them down. He threw lightning bolts wildly, and assaulted them with fire. After a long fight, the trio succeeded. They search his body and found Gauntlets of Ogre Power, the Beads of Force and the Ring of Jumping.

On the wall, the Illius spotted his family crest, Zhai saw a symbol resembling the wood and dark elves, and Rhannek noticed the mark of the trolls that attacked Nesme. Thus, the adventurers believed that they were brought to this area by fate.

On their way out, two opposing generals, one slaad and the other githyanki began battle in front of their eyes. It seemed as if they would destroy everything in their path. The party then ran towards Cedarleaf, a nearby village, to make sure the wood elves who inhabited it were safe.

Ygorl used the mine to gather power from the gems and crystals. He stationed his slaad army here. From the mine, Ygorl opened up a portal to Limbo, to try and lead the trio into giving him the Silver Sword of Gith. After defeating Ygorl, the three adventurers returned to the mine, then heard off towards Cedarleaf village.
