The Twilight Lanterns of Veyr House

Description

Adventure Summary

For characters of levels 3-5, this haunted manor encounter begins when Lord Cael Veyr vanishes while investigating cold blue lights moving through his family’s ruined estate on a windswept moor trapped in eternal twilight. Locals blame the manor’s spectral caretaker, but the haunting is a desperate warning: something buried beneath Veyr House is waking.

Background

Generations ago, the Veyr family sealed a lightless chamber below the manor after miners uncovered an akata cocoon lodged in black glass. The estate’s android groundskeeper, Ilyra-7, survived the disaster and has maintained the wards ever since. Time, storms, and scavengers have weakened the seals. Lord Cael came seeking proof of his family’s disgrace and found Ilyra-7 instead, who imprisoned him to keep him from opening the vault.
