In The Overthere, an extremely high walled cavern sits about in the center of the zone. Sulking about within are these strange creatures, and the entrance to Howling Stones - Charsis.
Following your local ugly, drunken wizard around is always an exercise in patience. (*snicker*) We got there eventually!
This scorpion guy appears to be an enchanter. Don't they look like a cross between an iksar and a scorpion?
Finally! We're inside. The zone in drops you down in the center of this square. There's 2 mobs usually right where you pop up, plus golem guarding the 4 hallways that branch off from here.
This view was taken from the room where you enter Charsis. When we went to make our first pull, the direction we chose was "trapped" There was a "hole" in the stairway (I don't remember which direction) and so Valya fell down into the deep unknown and we have to figure out how to save her!
We used leviate and slid down the wall on one side, and managed to work our way around the circular cavern to Valya's and Jaax's (who tried to drop down and sneak but landed on the roof and became skelly food) bodies. Straight ahead is what's under the awning in the prior picture.
We rescued Valya and returned to the "zone in" area via the portal that's located in the small pagoda in the cavern. We set off in a different direction and found this interesting tapestry hanging in front of a false entrance.
Having cleared the area, a clearer view of the tapestry at decision time. Wonder what's behind door #1?!
The tapestry leads to a drop, you fall a few feet into a new hallway. Looking back at the way we entered, it's a bit too tall to just turn around and walk back out. Was a really fun trip, but we didn't move in much further than this.
