Mythic Mondays- The Killing Cold

They began their investigation.


But a storm was approaching... they chose to fortify their camp.


Sister Mary was hopeful.


Rex Murphy was just glad to not be left to investigate on his own as Darrell Simmons had yet to return from his late night trip to Nome.


Rex found the way forward, but had difficulty deciphering the meaning.


Sister Mary came to his aid with a Stygian Eye.


She found Blood in the Snow


and the Chest of Winter.


She sacrificed Personal Provisions to save Rex... again.


The Lantern lit her way to success in Unknown Kadath.


Leaving Rex to attempt a Treacherous Ascent.


Whew.


Sister Mary was frozen. She was unused to the cold.


She had to make a Dark Pact to conquer the Heart of Darkness.


Allies, like the brave Allakariallak helped Sister Mary and Rex as their investigation continued.


A Native Warning prevented Sister Mary from losing herself.


New Recruits... allies, came to Sister Mary and Rex's aid. They had to wait for them to arrive, but any help was welcome in this unforgiving clime.


Granny joined Sister Mary.


Bill Morris joined Rex's growing team.


Rex found the Light Within,


drawing strength from his allies.


Thank God for Thomas.


While Sister Mary fought valiantly against the Endless Night.


Her victory was costly, but necessary to continue moving forward.


Time was growing short and the killing cold was nearly upon them... In a last ditch effort, Rex made for the Great Hall of Celeano.


While Sister Mary faced down the Bone Carver.


But it was simply too cold. They were forced to take shelter. And Darrell Simmons had yet to return from Nome. It all came to a head at the window...


The clouds darkened...


the frost bit deeply, the wind howled and cut to the core. Rlim-Shaikorth had awakened!


With 18 storms coalescing around the newly-risen Ancient One, Sister Mary and Rex Murphy were powerless to stop Rlim-Shaikorth's Killing Cold*. Eternal winter had arrived.


Here, at the end of all things.


Sister Mary


Rex Murphy

Hope and light faded as darkness and cold claimed the frozen North.


Dearly Departed


Rest in Peace
