====== Dry Well ====== {{ ::dryawell.png?400|}} Despite being dried up, the old well remains somewhat intact. The wooden roof is still standing, held securely by large beams. The initials "KZ" are carved into one of them. The crank is still in working order. A bucket attached to a long [[rope|rope]] is still hanging deep into the well. A [[hooked_pulley|hooked pulley]] is lying on the ground nearby. Climbing to the bottom, a series of passages can be found leading to a [[secret cavern|secret cavern]]. >//We [Gulpax and Gimnax] used to meet in the passageways below this village, back when all we wanted was each other.// - Gulpax's Journal (GS-Journal) ---- ===== History ===== Located south of the walls of [[hornhelm|Hornhelm]], the site appears to have been a small village. Based on the remains, the village appears ancient. The stone buildings have all collapsed, creating a unique pattern around the dried up well. Every single building has collapsed away from the well, spreading out like the petals of a flower. ---- ===== References ===== ==== Saurian Wasteland (GS-ADV5)==== Peering into the depths of the well, you notice two things. First, you hear shuffling feet and see a flickering light. Second, you notice a severed [[orc|Orc]] ear in the bucket below. * Pull up the bucket. * Wait to see who collects the ear. In both cases, you will encounter the [[hobgoblin|Hobgoblin]] [[wendel|Wendel]]. The two of you will become quickly involved in a conflict with [[pulgor|Pulgor Goodweather]] as he leaps up from the well beside you. * Side with [[pulgor|Pulgor]]. * Defend [[wendel|Wendel]]. * Draw your blade and stand firm between them both. When the conflict ends, you learn that the [[immortal_knight|Immortal Knight]] [[imbri|Imbri]] and [[nayo|Nayo]] are below, holding [[awook|Awook]] captive. Climbing down the well looks to be in your future. Doing so will reveal the way to a [[secret cavern|secret cavern]].
