As is common among wizards, Jupiter sought to enlist local warriors to assist him. Victor Strictlen the Valiant and Heimdall the Heavy Handed were found ready and willing to aid Jupiter to search for more powerful scrolls.
Heimdall, followed Jupiter into the very heart of the Brigand Fort. Willing to sacrifice all for the wizard, Heimdall is nearly run ragged in the bloody battle.
The seige against the Brigand fort can be considered a success, however, upon opening the lost treasure chest, Jupiter and his guide are quickly outmatched... Out of practice and out of luck they both fall quickly under the scourge.
Jupiter had sealed a powerful cataclysm spell to his body and spirit that released should the two ever become separated by death. While the spells released devastated the guardians, it took their beloved mounts as well.
(p.s. a special shout and Welcome to the shard for Victor Strictlen and Heimdall for volunteering to travel with Jupiter. Having never met me before, nor knowing my purpose, these brave souls protected me bravely. I found Heimdall north of Britain at the Grave Yard. Victor was recruited at a local tavern.)
