Howdy...
...So having survived the nightmare of Sun House, the PCs decide to continue their journey to the Tower of the Sun. However, on rounding a hill a bright flash some 20 miles distant catches their gaze followed by an almighty explosion that scorches the parched land in either direction.....The tower is gone, & a portion of land it stood on has fallen into the Chasm.
The elf ranger spots a dark figure on a black horse at the edge of the destruction observing the devestation..it turns & rides off (This is a Death Knight & the PCs will meet this character again)....
PC meeting, 'what now?'....They decide to head to the garrison at the Eastern Gateway, but on arriving they find it guarded by something else & the Great Barrier has been activated....No creature can pass the dark mist it is a savage & ancient magic & besides all that is beyond is the wastelands of the Howlings......

Well having kicked some Direguard arse & his pet skeleton wolf & a few orcs, the PCs find a dieing guard in the bottom of one of the towers. He tells the party that they were taken by surprise as they did not come through the eastern gateway but from the woods. He hands the PCs an ornate key & with his last breath whispers 'Azacanaster's Folly.....'
'Great!' says the paladin, who grew up in this land, a childs story of a ancient ruin of great power, that never stays in one place long enough for anyone to find it! Only one thing to do, head along the Great barrier road back to the Western Watchtower, maybe the paladins old mentor can shed some light on what's going on.....
Road Along the Great Barrier

Thanks ae, it has taken alot of trial & error over many years....
Meanwhile, the PCs spot 2 skeleton archers high on the battlements. The ranger calls for caution, to late the paladin has already opted for a full frontal attack & kicks in the weak rear door....hacking their way through the Watchtower (skeletons, mimic & one hungry ghoul) they find the paladins former mentor dieing atop a tower. He gives the paladin some goodies, 'cool', & another ornate key. The 2 keys fit in a winch system & the PCs raise the gatedoor on the lower level. Outside the find it only leads to the cliff edge? but on searching they find a strange magical symbol on the ground.....this will teleport them to Azacanter's Folly, an ancient portal....but it is guarded by a thrall who waits in the shadows.......

Azacanaster's Folly
On defeating the Thrall, they pass through the portal & the first part of the adventure ends....tot up experience points & a little bonus for completing the adventuer, 'well done everyone'......
