Today I<br \/>\nmade just such a mistake. For a while now, I&#8217;ve been working on trying<br \/>\nto open the pf path in the McBolie Cavern on Devil&#8217;s Island, which I<br \/>\nseem to have forgotten over the past few months. On my past few visits<br \/>\nI found that I had forgotten the path to the point where I could not<br \/>\neven see the path, much less open it. Luckily, today I was able to find<br \/>\nthe path once more, and after a few minutes of staring at it, I was<br \/>\nable to pass through and open it. However, once on the other side, I<br \/>\nfound that a pack of Dark Vermine had been waiting for me, and they<br \/>\nchewed me to bits before I could retreat back into the cavern. Since I<br \/>\nwas pretty deep inside the island, I decided to depart from Devil&#8217;s<br \/>\nIsland, so as not to cause anyone the inconvenience of having to rescue<br \/>\nme&#8230; or so I thought.<\/font><\/p>\n<p>\n<font>Once I emerged from Purgatory, I found a surprise<br \/>\nawaiting me. Instead of being inside the temple in Puddleby where I<br \/>\nexpected, I found myself within a hidden garden, being greeted by the<br \/>\nstrange hermit Qu&#8217;Dwrs-Li. I had departed from Devil&#8217;s Island only to<br \/>\nfind myself stuck deep within the caverns below Dal&#8217;Noth Island. I had<br \/>\ncompletely forgotten that I had touched the strange &#8220;Altar&#8221; within<br \/>\nQu&#8217;Dwrs-Li&#8217;s garden earlier, when I was exploring the &#8216;Noth underground<br \/>\nin search of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.puddleby.com\/lundar-files\/img\/191-545.html\"><u>hidden tunnels<\/u><\/a>.<br \/>\nNow I was in more trouble than I was before, and not even departing<br \/>\nwould take me off of Dal&#8217;Noth isle. Luckily for me, my friends Sutai<br \/>\nand Magnels were able to convince a Scaramis party to come rescue me,<br \/>\nand with their heroic aid, I was able to leave the island. I rushed<br \/>\nback to town, and changed my altar before I could make the same mistake<br \/>\na second time. Sometimes it just doesn&#8217;t pay to be considerate.<\/font><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Day 261, Year 545 of the Ascendancy Sometimes in life, a small mistake can lead to a huge disaster.
