====== Dunshab Lakebed ======
{{ ::dunshablakebed.png?400|}}
In the northern portion of the [[saurian_wasteland|Saurian Wasteland]], a gentle stream flows from the Boorlin Prairie. It empties into a dry lakebed and then falls through a wide fissure in the ground.

The fissure reveals a large, [[subterranean lake|subterranean lake]] lying below the surface. The stench of decaying corpses rises from the fissure. Sounds from below indicate the potential of a large creature living in the water.

Along one edge of the fissure, a stone altar has been erected.

===== History =====

The land hasn't always been a wasteland. At one time in history, it was rich and fertile, as is evident from the remaining foliage that can seen sporadically throughout the area.

Approaching the lakebed, you witness a group of [[saurian_priests|Saurian priests]] performing some sort of ritual. They appear to have [[zug|Zug]], [[nayo|Nayo's]] [[orc|Orc]] friend, bound and lying on the altar. They are placing a small [[durgolium box|durgolium box]] on his chest.

  * Attack while they are distracted.
  * Observe their behavior further to learn about the ritual.
  * Approach them and attempt to join the ceremony.

When all is said and done, you discover that [[zug|Zug]] was not a sacrifice after all. He is already dead. It appears that [[nayo|Nayo]] was not able to save him from the assassin. His body is quickly deposited in the fissure.
