"In truth I used the word golem simply because I have not other way to label the creature that rose from the tar pit. It did not appear to be a beast of nature; instead it looked as though it was made. Although it could easily have been some unknown demon from another dimension summoned by the evil priests that lurk below the abbey. It was quite different from the golem we faced below our manse. That one was made of earth. This one seemed to be made of fire. I think it unlikely that they are from the same source."ehiker133 wrote:"Ulric... you called it a gholum. The same term we used for the iron machine we fought in the basement of our manse. I did not see the beast of fire, myself, so could not properly call it such, but... it seems unusual that gholums are in use in both the abbey and in Ket. Some might even call it coincidence. And I don't believe in coincidence. From what High... er, Taurnorn... has indicated, making gholums is beyond snork knowledge. Could someone be making gholums for them and for the wolf priests?" Desmond asks the fire mage.
"As far as how to stop it, I do have enchantments that could harm it. My fire-based magic may not be effective, but I have other spells that would cause it considerable harm. I also now have the power to make myself or one of you invisible."
"It would appear that we are coming to an agreement. Is it to be Olaf's plan then? If so when do we leave?"
