Option 1We send a party into the ruins in search of treasure.The ruins are a confusing maze of tunnels and chasms, and we lose a few men to their treacherous ledges. They were meant for swimmers, not pedestrians! We don’t find real treasure, but collect lots and lots of pretty sea shells.
Option 2We look for information about the mysterious merfolk.We find a mural depicting what appears to be the Queen of the Merfolk. Much to our surprise, the adjacent text does not consists of strange glyphs only, but also Greek letters. Thanks to this, we now know the queen’s name: Derketo.
Option 3We’ll return later.
