The chamber gets brighter,brighter yet and then with a arcing sizzle
it vanishes in a blast of time wrenching dragon force.
You find yourself staggering out in a woodland,and you can hear a sweet maidens voice in the distance.
You head in the direction of the heavenly voice and emerge in a clearing.In the center of the clearing are several huge boulders,and
coiled at the base of them is the biggest snake you've ever seen,60
feet long with a red fin running the length of its backbone.
The maiden it sitting on top of one of the boulders and its easy to see she and the huge serpent are not enemies.
When the snake turns its head and looks in your direction,you can tell
by its flickering tongue its scenting you,because its eyes are milky
white and unseeing.
The druidess calls you over
"Sir Knight?,can you please aid me in protecting this poor
pitiful aged dragon from Pontius Pilates men?"
Further enquiries reveal that Pontius Pilate,the one time Governor
of Judea,has been cursed to take on the form of the serpent you see
coiled around the boulders by day,and only resumes his aged human
form at night.
