Text from the Wall in the Ice

The following information was translated by Matheson, Ethelrod and Pierre (with help from Pen) from the transcriptions of the writings from the wall in the ice.

1.     This clue identifies the wall as part of a city. According to the figures given in the writings, this city would be located to the south and probably about 60 miles inland.

2.     This clue reveals the name of the city, Commorium, built by people who migrated south from a place called Mhu Thulan. Pierre has deduced that Mhu Thulan and Commorium were part of lost Hyperborea.

3.     A description of Commorium, telling of its many parks and gardens. A successful Biology roll has revealed that the described plants could only be prehistoric cycads and palms.

4.     This reveals that the people built their city on or near the ruins of another, older civilization.

5.     "Commorium was built upon the children of Zoth-Aqqua!" is the only understandable portion of this transcription.

6.     This tells of an ancient temple, square in shape and of pre-human origin, that stands near the peak of a mountain that borders Commorium.

7.     This transcription tells of a six-legged horror sometimes seen in the vicinity of a prehistoric building on a nearby mountain.

8.     This mentions that a "hideous, formless guardian hides in the temple on the mountain."

9.     This is a spell, Contact Zoth-Aqqua.

10.  This is a spell, Contact Servant of Zoth-Aqqua.

11.  The inscription says that if one wishes to visit the ancient temple on the mountain, he will be required to speak with "the Servant within."
