Athonu’s Task
Modern scholars who have studied the records and accounts from the days of the Stellar Rupture teach that the event itself was peaceful, where the physical world remained undisturbed while the sky burned. To creatures with innate magical senses however, it was a sensory nightmare. When the astral wave hit Kemet’s core, it created what would amount to an earthquake on the arcane layer. Celestial essence that had been bottled up inside the planet since its birth was violently forced into the atmosphere.
Encounter Tier: CR 15 (18,000 XP) | Non-Combat (Magical Exploration & Environmental Hazard)
- The Trigger: Triggers immediately upon completing a telepathic conversation with Athonu regarding the environment of the Rupture. If the party should be granted the ability to speak with Athonu via Vurnvazir’s telepathic link and ask about what he knows of the past, the dragon will remark about their magic use and how he recalls the event that remade the world which granted them that power.
- The Objective: Athonu will talk about the terror he felt as a hatchling and that the stress upon the foundation of the world was strongest near fissures and faults. He tasks the party with traveling to a location within the Spires Basin where a highly concentrated Wild Magic zone can be found directly over a ruptured fault. The party is asked to venture in and use a Soporic Fragment, a shard created from the dreamscape into the material plane, to capture the residual frequency of the ambient magic. This will prove the Stellar Rupture's energy surged from deep below the earth rather than descending from above and help scholars of the world understand the truth of the event.
