You close your eyes and concentrate upon your telepathic powers in an attempt to make contact with Lord Rimoah. The image of the magician’s face swims in and out of focus, and you sense that your efforts to communicate with him are being disrupted by the sheer density of the granite that separates you both. Briefly you connect, and in these few fleeting seconds you learn that he is aware of Shom’zaa’s destruction. He tells you that King Ryvin’s army is battling through the middle levels of the kingdom in a determined effort to reach the throne chamber.
You must hold the chamber until the King’s warriors arrive … These are the last mind-words you hear from Rimoah before your telepathic link weakens and fades.
