Calpurnia's op to retrieve the Gemini Swords from the Drowned Canyon seemed simple enough. A snatch-and-grab affair, if ever there was one. But then the token of recall went awry and now you're lost.
Description:
Calpurnia's offer to teleport the party into one of the known locations within Arden Vul to seek out the Tomb of the Twins and recover the fabled Gemini Swords held the promise of substantial loot. It seemed like a low-risk operation with a made-to-order exit plan should things go badly. The teleport-in went off perfectly, and the Drowned Canyon was more impressive than you had imagined. As Calpurnia had warned, there were numerous submerged tombs in the flooded Canyon. Your party caught a break and as you found the Tomb of Phocius Tricotor quickly, locating the Tomb of the Twins became a simple matter of elimination. Conversely, the foul beast guarding the Tomb was bad ass! And then the token of recall went awry and sent you to an unknown location, tho perhaps still within Arden Vul. For PC levels 6-7.
