Travelling towards the lights, the PCs are threatened by magic so old, it defies categorization.

They must defeat a blood-infused water elemental before proceeding. Once inside, the PCs share a room with a dark ritual running since the origin of the world.

So with a quavering voice you say the magic words. And then you wait... A hush falls over the ruins, making the back of your neck prickle.
