Victory By A Landslide.
By: Aylune
It was deep within the bowels of Maradaun, tucked away in a hidden alcove looking over the watery path, that the party found their quarry. Not princess as some would expect, but a hulking earth elemental by the name of Landslide instead.
This mission was far from noble in its pursuit, while many dungeon runs were done by the party in the name of assisting others this was done out of pure avarice. The parties noble paladin had heard tales of the elementals incredible collection of armor, he assembled the party with the purest of intentions. The intent to murder for personal gain.
Clearing the path to the elemental was child's play, the simple obliteration of infested plants and Crystal gaze basilisks. It was once they descended on his nest that disaster struck.
The tales of Landslide spoke of his great wealth, but mentioned little of his great size. Landslide was a collosal being, barely able to fit within the confines of his room without brushing the cavern ceiling. His feet were gigantic pounding mallets that made the entire cave shake, knocking the fighters off their feet and interrupting spellwork. His gigantic torso shedding off tiny pebbles which grew in to vicious rock elementals that added to the gray.
One after the other Landslide shed bits of rock until an earthen elemental army stood by his side. Between the cavern falling around them and the elementals overwhelming them the gigantic foe won a landslide victory.
