Location Krezk Level 7

The Waystone

Overview

A bend of the Old Svalich Road on the way to Krezk, where an old waystone with a sunburst cut into it stands at the roadside with a candle burning at its foot every night (The Waystone, docs/story/side_quests.md).

The road bends between pines and rock. At the bend stands a waist-high stone with a sunburst cut into it, so old the rays are only dents, and in a niche at its foot a candle stub, burnt down almost to nothing.

Resting: Risky: a rest here can be interrupted.

What to find

The containers here also get random magic items and potions, rolled for a party of level 7 the first time you come (Random Treasure). Hidden finds need a Search (F) nearby; the party's best roll counts.
