R7 Aging Ruin

Aging Room

If R9 Steamworks is active, every minute that passes ages everything within this room by 1 year and gives it +1 Fatigue. Anything that dies to Fatigue here has its soul eaten, powering the star ripper.

Squire’s Tag

Worn around the neck under the corpse’s armor is a silver tag, engraved with: “Pandlin Lorel, squire to honorable Knage Ashright of Vanavell.”

AGING RUIN

Chambers in ruins with dozens of floating, ethereal clocks ticking at unbelievable pace. A bed, table, and kitchen can be seen, and the smell of musty rot lingers. A withered corpse is handcuffed to a pillar, a human-sized lump is covered by the sheets on the bed, and stairs up have crumbled to splinters. A door to a gallery hangs above the bed.

Bed: The withered Knage (Wa) is tied- down with a Rope of Entanglement. The partner Sending Parchment with the letter from C3 Scroll Atheneum is by the bed.

• ?Corpse: Died thou­sands of years ago, despite its modern armor and cuffs. Inspection reveals the Squire’s Tag (see sidebar) and that both of the legs are broken. This is the body of Pandin Lorel, a squire of Knage (Kn), who he tested the Aging Room out on.
