The crew of the Unsinkable II emerge from the archives of the
Temple after a long rest. Refreshed they
agree to set out for the dark Island.
But they have to deal with a grimlock ambush first.
The sightless creatures dealt with they use a raft to reach
the shore. The coarse black earth of the
orchard is riddled with pale white worms.
The trees are all but leafless, twisted black branches claw up toward
the unseen sun pitifully. At the end of
each row of thin basket, Garrick takes another black apple from the
basket.
Torches light either side of the staircase that leads to a
great theatre. The Medusa’s lair.
Dramatic to the end, the medusa gives a speech before
attacking the party.
“I have been
waiting for you to come
I have been
here all alone
Now that you
have arrived
Please stay
awhile
I won’t keep
you for long
I’ll keep you
forever!”
The battles rages across the theatre, the party ride their luck
several times just avoiding the petrifying gaze of the medusa and the talons of
her grimlock and gargoyle henchmen.
In the aftermath of the battle, the crew finds the medusa’s
dressing room and her loot.
Ancient coins spill from caskets and ornate boxes, a few
potions and a strange eldritch presse adorn the medusa’s dresser.

bronze press maybe used by an eldritch spell caster to perform a ritual that

the Shadowfell and Medusa blood. Creates a stone to flesh potion.
Epilogue:
Among the irreparable
rent and torn statures statues in the theater only one is untouched.
…
Behind the dressing
rooms a heavy iron grate bars entry to a spiral staircase descending into the Islands
depths. The ever-present fog spills
upward from the staircase, thick amorphous tendrils slither through the grate
in great waves, lapping or wrapping around your legs in a creepy parody of wading through shallow water.
The Grimlock floating village,above the sunken ruins of ancient Neopoli.
