Level 6
  1. Moderate 6 — Trouble aboard the ship
    • Hazard: Sportlebore Infestation
    • 2× Sportlebore Swarm
    • When the players retreat to the ship, they are welcomed with a warm meal. Even if they notice the sportlebore in their food (planted by the assassins), both goblin machinists are already infected, vomiting swarms for the players to deal with it. Usuvu has spent 2 healing spells on them today, with no effect.
  2. Moderate 6 — The well
    • 2× Living Tar (springwater, oozified)
    • A semi-fresh corpse is in this room. His supplies must have been tainted by the rampant ooze plague on the region.
  3. Moderate 6 — Eternal guardian of the library
    • 1× Elite Clockwork Sphynx
    • The sphynx welcomes the players to the library and invites them to browse the books. It will not defend the players from the Claws of Time. It will try to prevent players from bypassing the secret door's mechanism "unless they have the CLASSIFIED key."
  4. Severe 6 — The undead heretics
  5. Extreme 6 — Exploring the Cradle of Quartz
    • 1× Claws of Time
    • The Claws of Time leaves the other inhabitants of the dungeon alone because they aren't trying to manipulate the flow of time (anymore).
    • In the first room, find a semi-fresh corpse of a Gilded Gunner.
    • The blue-light lanterns in the first room are broken.
