<description class="blurb">
<p>You are Lone Wolf<ch.emdash/>Kai Grand Master of Sommerlund. Far away to the west lies the peninsula of Ixia. It is an icy, desolate wasteland that for 10,000 years has been the domain of Lord Ixiataaga<ch.emdash/>Masterlord of the Dead. Here he reigns supreme over a horde of lost souls, an undead populace who are condemned to an eternity in his service.</p>
<p>In <cite>The Deathlord of Ixia</cite>, you must journey to the forbidden city of Xaagon<ch.emdash/>the seat of Lord Ixiataaga<ch.apos/>s dark power<ch.emdash/>and confront him in a life-or-death battle which will test your Grand Master abilities to the limit. Will you overcome and defeat this terrifying entity? Or will you fall victim to his undead legions and the terrible new power they wield?</p>

+ <p>There is some confusion around the use of the term <quote>Old Kingdom</quote> in this book. Although the native Ixians are often described as belonging to the <quote>time of the Old Kingdoms</quote> (<a idref="sect152">Section 152</a>), it is clear from the fact that the Deathlord destroyed them during the Age of Eternal Night that they could not have existed during the Age of the Old Kingdoms which began more than 1000 years after the Age of Eternal Night ended. (See <cite><a href="&link.tmc;">The Magnamund Companion</a></cite>, <quote>Magnamund Then and Now</quote>.) The author may have used the term <quote>Old Kingdom</quote> to refer to any humanoid nation prior to the appearance of the Shianti.</p>

<p>You are Grand Master Lone Wolf, last of the Kai Lords of Sommerlund and sole survivor of a massacre that wiped out the First Order of your <!--ERRTAG-RE-5555--><ch.eacute/>lite<!--/ERRTAG-RE-5555--> warrior caste.</p>
- <p>It is the year MS 5077, twenty-seven years since your brave kinsmen perished at the hands of the Darklords of Helgedad. These <!--ERRTAG-RE-7590-->champions of evil who<!--/ERRTAG-RE-7590--> were sent forth by <!--ERRTAG-RE-6583-->Naar, the King<!--/ERRTAG-RE-6583--> of the Darkness, to destroy the fertile world of <!--ERRTAG-RE-7774-->Magnamund have<!--/ERRTAG-RE-7774--> themselves since been destroyed. You vowed to avenge the murder of the Kai and you kept your pledge, for it was you who brought about their downfall when alone you infiltrated their foul domain<ch.emdash/>the Darklands<ch.emdash/>and caused the destruction of their leader and the seat of his power that was the infernal city of Helgedad.</p>
+ <p>It is the year MS 5077, twenty-seven years since your brave kinsmen perished at the hands of the Darklords of Helgedad. These champions of evil, who were sent forth by <!--ERRTAG-RE-6583-->Naar, the King<!--/ERRTAG-RE-6583--> of the Darkness, to destroy the fertile world of Magnamund, have themselves since been destroyed. You vowed to avenge the murder of the Kai and you kept your pledge, for it was you who brought about their downfall when alone you infiltrated their foul domain<ch.emdash/>the Darklands<ch.emdash/>and caused the destruction of their leader and the seat of his power that was the infernal city of Helgedad.</p>
<p>In the wake of their destruction, chaos befell the Darkland armies who, until then, had been poised to conquer all of Magnamund. Some factions which comprised this huge army, most notably the barbaric Drakkarim, began to fight with the others for control. This disorder quickly escalated into an all-out civil war which allowed the <!--ERRTAG-RA-6514-->Freeland<!--/ERRTAG-RA-6514--> armies of Magnamund time in which to recover and launch a counter-offensive. Their commanders exploited the chaos skilfully and secured a swift and total victory over an enemy far superior in numbers.</p>
<p>For seven years now peace has reigned in Sommerlund. Under your direction the once-ruined monastery of the Kai has been thoroughly rebuilt and restored to its former glory, and the task of teaching a Second Order of Kai warriors the skills and proud traditions of your ancestors is also well established. The new generation of Kai recruits, all of whom were born during the era of war against the Darklords, possess latent Kai skills and show exceptional promise. These skills will be nurtured and honed to perfection during their time at the Monastery so that they may teach and inspire future generations, thereby ensuring the continued security of your homeland in future years.</p>
<p>Your attainment of the rank of Kai Grand Master brought with it great rewards. Some, such as the restoration of the Kai and the undying gratitude of your fellow Sommlending, could have been anticipated. Yet there have also been rewards which you could not possibly have foreseen. The discovery that within you lay the potential to develop Kai Disciplines beyond those of the Magnakai, which, until now, were thought to be the ultimate that a Kai Master could aspire to, was truly a revelation. Your discovery has inspired you to set out upon a new and previously unknown path in search of the wisdom and power that no Kai Lord before you has ever possessed. In the name of your creator, the God Kai, and for the greater glory of Sommerlund and the Goddess Ishir, you have vowed to reach the very pinnacle of Kai perfection<ch.emdash/>to attain all of the Grand Master Disciplines and become the first Kai Supreme Master.</p>
<p>With diligence and determination you set about the restoration of the Kai Monastery and the training of the Second Order recruits. Your efforts were soon rewarded for within the space of two short years, the first raw recruits had graduated to become a cadre of gifted Kai Masters who, in turn, were able to commence the teaching of their skills to subsequent intakes of Kai novices. The Kai Masters rose to their newfound responsibilities readily, leaving you free to devote more of your time to the pursuit and perfection of the Grand Master Disciplines. During this period you also received expert tutelage in the ways of magic from two of your most trusted friends and advisors: Guildmaster Banedon, leader of the Brotherhood of the Crystal Star, and Lord Rimoah, speaker for the High Council of the Elder Magi.</p>
- <p>In the deepest subterranean level of the Monastery, a hundred feet below the Tower of the Sun, you ordered the excavation and construction of a special vault. In this magnificent chamber wrought of granite and gold, you placed the seven Lorestones of Nyxator, the gems of Kai power which you had recovered during your quest for the Magnakai. It was here, bathed in the golden light of those radiant gems, that you spent countless hours in pursuit of perfection. Sometimes alone, sometimes in the company of your two able advisors<ch.emdash/>Banedon and Rimoah<ch.emdash/>you worked hard to develop your innate Grand Master Disciplines, and grasp the fundamental secrets of Left-handed and Old Kingdom magic. During this time you noticed many remarkable changes taking place within your body: you became physically and mentally stronger, your five primary senses sharpened beyond all that you had experienced before, and, perhaps most remarkably, your body began to age at a much slower rate. Now, for every five years that elapse you age but one year.</p>

In this magnificent chamber wrought of granite and gold, you placed the seven Lorestones of Nyxator, the gems of Kai power which you had recovered during your quest for the Magnakai.

During this time you noticed many remarkable changes taking place within your body: you became physically and mentally stronger, your five primary senses sharpened beyond all that you had experienced before, and, perhaps most remarkably, your body began to age at a much slower rate. Now, for every five years that elapse you age but one year.</p>
<p>At this time many changes were occurring beyond the borders of Sommerlund. In the regions to the northeast of Magador and the Maakengorge, the Elder Magi of Dessi and the Herbwardens of Bautar were working together in an effort to restore the dusty volcanic wasteland to its former fertile state. It was the first tentative step towards the reclamation of all the Darklands. However, their progress was painfully slow, and both parties were resigned to the fact that their efforts to undo the damage caused by the Darklords would take centuries to complete.</p>
<p>Elsewhere, throughout Northern Magnamund, peace reigns victorious and the peoples of the Free Kingdoms rejoice in the knowledge that the age of the Darklords has finally come to an end. Readily men have exchanged their swords for hoes and their shields for ploughs, and now the only marching they do is along the ruts of their freshly furrowed fields. Few are the watchful eyes that scan the distant horizon in fear of what may appear, although there are still those who maintain their vigilance, for the agents of Naar come in many guises and there are those upon Magnamund who wait quietly in the shadows for the chance to do his evil bidding.</p>
<p>Already your newfound skills have been tested against Naar<ch.apos/>s agents and you have, on each occasion, acquitted yourself admirably. But your continuing victories against his minions have enraged the Dark God and inflamed his lust for vengeance. Earlier this year you thwarted Naar<ch.apos/>s plans to revive Vashna, the greatest of all the Darklords, whose spirit is trapped deep within the fathomless reaches of the Maakengorge<ch.emdash/>the chasm of doom. Vashna<ch.apos/>s spirit has remained there in uneasy entombment ever since the day, long ago, when he and his army were defeated in battle by King Ulnar I of Sommerlund. Your brave and courageous actions prevented Naar<ch.apos/>s agents from summoning to Magnamund a demoness named Shamath from the Plane of Darkness. This supernatural creature possessed the Deathstaff<ch.emdash/>an artefact of great evil forged by Naar himself<ch.emdash/>with which she could have resurrected Vashna and his army from the Maakengorge. Yet your timely intervention destroyed the <!--ERRTAG-RA-12477-->Shadow Gate<!--/ERRTAG-RA-12477--> through which she was travelling, and by so doing, you imprisoned the demoness Shamath in the limbo which exists between your world and the Plane of Darkness.</p>
<p><quote>My lord, do you wish me to go to Ixia<ch.emdash/>to find and destroy the Deathstaff before another of Naar<ch.apos/>s agents can use it against us? Is this why you have come seeking my help?</quote> you replied, expecting Rimoah to affirm your assumption.</p>
<p><quote>Partly so, my lord,</quote> he said, holding you with his steel-grey eyes, <quote>but I fear that already it has fallen into the hands of an enemy<ch.emdash/>and one who is deadlier than even the demoness Shamath. What do you know of the Deathlord of Ixia?</quote></p>
<p>You faintly remembered having heard this name before but were unable to recall any detail. Lord Rimoah, seeing that you were unable to give an answer, obliged with an impromptu history lesson:</p>
- <p><quote>The Deathlord of Ixia was once lieutenant to Agarash the Damned<ch.emdash/>the most powerful of all Naar<ch.apos/>s champions of evil,</quote> said Rimoah, his head bowed as he paced the granite floor of your vault. <quote>During the Age of Eternal Night he conquered much of Northern Magnamund, including the realm of Ixia which was once a rich and very fertile land. He destroyed the native Ixians, transforming them into a legion of undead servants under his command. Many centuries later, when my ancestors defeated Agarash during the <!--ERRTAG-RE-17262-->Age of War<!--/ERRTAG-RE-17262-->, they magically imprisoned the weakened Deathlord in a secret tomb within the dread city of Xaagon, near to the southern coast of Ixia. For thousands of years his tomb lay undisturbed until the first of the Drakkarim appeared on Magnamund. They entered Xaagon and found the Deathlord<ch.apos/>s tomb<ch.emdash/>yet legend has it that none of them escaped Ixia alive. Perhaps they, too, serve him now. During the Age of the Black Moon, the Darklords conquered all of the territories surrounding Ixia yet they chose to avoid setting foot in the Deathlord<ch.apos/>s realm. Mindful of his origins, they feared that if he were released from his sorcerous prison he would seek to dominate and destroy them.</quote></p>

Mindful of his origins, they feared that if he were released from his sorcerous prison he would seek to dominate and destroy them.</quote></p>
<p><quote>My lord, are you telling me that the Deathlord of Ixia is now free of this prison <em>and</em> in possession of the Deathstaff?</quote> you asked, fearing Lord Rimoah<ch.apos/>s reply.</p>
<p><quote>Yes, Grand Master. I<ch.apos/>m afraid that is exactly the situation which confronts us. Since the passing of the last moon, I and others of the High Council of the Elder Magi have detected a great imbalance between the forces of Good and Evil in our world. By ill chance or by Naar<ch.apos/>s design, the Deathstaff has fallen into the hands of Ixiataaga. Once again the Deathlord is free to indulge his unholy and insatiable appetite for living beings. Already we have heard reports from Lencian fishermen which tell of the destruction of remote Drakkarim settlements around the Gulf of Konkor, and there are even claims of a <ch.apos/>death fleet<ch.apos/> having been sighted in the waters of the Shakoz Bight. Yes, Grand Master, the Deathlord is free to roam the face of Magnamund once more, and I fear he will not stop until every living creature is enslaved to him in undeath.</quote></p>
<p>For hours, you and your trusted advisor deliberated over what could be done to prevent this unspeakable disaster from befalling Magnamund. You considered a muster of the <!--ERRTAG-RA-6514-->Freeland<!--/ERRTAG-RA-6514--> armies and an immediate attack upon Ixia, but such a plan simply could not be executed. The peninsula of Ixia is far too remote and desolate a territory to be reached by any <!--ERRTAG-RA-6514-->Freeland<!--/ERRTAG-RA-6514--> army on foot, and, with winter already so far advanced, any ship-borne invasion would be doomed to fail. Time was also against you. The Deathlord had to be stopped as quickly as possible before he could unleash an army of undead upon Magnamund, an unkillable army that would grow larger with every battle it fought against the living.</p>

He shrieks, and raises the Deathstaff defensively to ward off your first blow. As the tip of the Power Spike bites deep into the haft of Ixiataaga<ch.apos/>s fell weapon, a hissing mass of crimson and white sparks explode into the air.

+ <p>(<a idref="tssf">The Story So Far<ch.ellips/></a>) There is some confusion around the use of the term <quote>Old Kingdom</quote> in this book. Although the native Ixians are often described as belonging to the <quote>time of the Old Kingdoms</quote> (<a idref="sect152">Section 152</a>), it is clear from the fact that the Deathlord destroyed them during the Age of Eternal Night that they could not have existed during the Age of the Old Kingdoms which began more than 1000 years after the Age of Eternal Night ended. (See <cite><a href="&link.tmc;">The Magnamund Companion</a></cite>, <quote>Magnamund Then and Now</quote>.) The author may have used the term <quote>Old Kingdom</quote> to refer to any humanoid nation prior to the appearance of the Shianti.</p>

These items are restored to the list of permissible items from the Kai and Magnakai series again in this book after being omitted beginning in <bookref book="14tcok" section="gamerulz">The Captives of Kaag</bookref>. Presumably, therefore, it should be permissible to leave the Silver Bracers and Korlinium Scabbard in safekeeping at the monastery during the previous books and retrieve them at the outset of this adventure.</p>
<p>(<a idref="discplnz">Grand Master Disciplines</a>) The rules of the books in the Magnakai series (6<ch.endash/>12) and the fact that the <quote>rank of Kai Grand Defender<ch.ellips/> means you are skilled in two<ch.ellips/> weapons</quote> imply that for each book that you complete of the Grand Master series (13<ch.endash/>20), you will gain mastery of an additional Kai weapon. For example, if you complete <cite>The Plague Lords of Ruel</cite> and have the Grand Master Discipline of Grand Weaponmastery at the beginning of the next book, you can choose an additional Weapon from the list to have Mastery of.</p>
<p>(<a idref="sect10">10</a>) This is the correct answer to the crystal dais grid in <a idref="sect69">Section 69</a>.</p>
<p>(<a idref="sect20">20</a>) This is the correct answer to the ancient, green crystal lock in <a idref="sect213">Section 213</a>.</p>
<p>(<a idref="sect64">64</a>) The wording of this section ignores the fact that you may arrive here without passing through the curtain of light.</p>
- <p>(<a idref="sect67">67</a>) Unless you have Grand Weaponmastery and are a Sun Knight or higher, you may not use a two-handed weapon (i.e. Broadsword, Quarterstaff, and Spear) for this combat.</p>
+ <p>(<a idref="sect67">67</a>) Unless you have Grand Weaponmastery and are a Sun Knight or higher, you may not use a two-handed weapon (i.e. Broadsword, Quarterstaff, or Spear) for this combat.</p>
<p>(<a idref="sect69">69</a>) The section corresponding to the correct answer will have a footnote confirming that it is indeed correct. You have only one chance to guess at the correct answer. If you guess incorrectly, <a idref="sect139">turn immediately to 139</a>.</p>
+ <p>(<a idref="sect77">77</a>) There is no mention of what type of Weapon the Power Spike is. If you choose to consider it one of the close combat Weapons used by the Kai (i.e. Spear, Dagger, Mace, Short Sword, Warhammer, Quarterstaff, Broadsword, Axe, and Sword), you may add all appropriate bonuses to your Combat Skill. If you decide that the Power Spike is not any of those Weapons, you may still decide that your Weaponmastery bonuses, if any, apply since Grandmasters are proficient with <quote>all close combat and missile weapons</quote> due to their knowledge of Magnakai Weaponmastery. (<a idref="discplnz">Grand Master Disciplines</a>)</p>
<p>(<a idref="sect96">96</a>) Kajarda are undead. (See Section <a idref="sect8">8</a>, <a idref="sect52">52</a>, or <a idref="sect265">265</a>.)</p>
<p>(<a idref="sect100">100</a>) This is the correct answer to the intricate lockplate in the center of the green crystal door in <a idref="sect322">Section 322</a>.</p>
<p>(<a idref="sect123">123</a>) It is unclear whether a 0 picked on the <a idref="random">Random Number Table</a> should count as exactly 0. Since the procedure described here is similar to the procedure for Kai-blast, and you are required to be a Sun Lord who has mastered Kai-surge, it would be reasonable to count 0 as a 1 in the same way as for Kai-blast.</p>
<p>(<a idref="sect125">125</a>) Kajarda are undead. (See Section <a idref="sect6">6</a>, <a idref="sect8">8</a>, <a idref="sect52">52</a>, <a idref="sect103">103</a>, <a idref="sect120">120</a>, or <a idref="sect265">265</a>.)</p>
<p>(<a idref="sect137">137</a>) Unless you have Grand Weaponmastery and are a Sun Knight or higher, you may not use a two-handed weapon (i.e. Broadsword, Quarterstaff, and Spear) for this combat.</p>
- <p>(<a idref="sect179">179</a>) It is unclear whether Grand Huntmastery should help you find food in this situation. Note that this appears to be the only section within the Grand Master books where Huntmastery is not mentioned in when you are required to eat a Meal. This either means that the current omission is intentional because the author is otherwise so consistent, or it means that Huntmastery was intended to be applied in all situations and this is a simple omission.</p>
+ <p>(<a idref="sect141">141</a>) Assuming that this weaponry was created by native Ixians prior to their destruction at the hands of the Deathlord since no other nation has occupied Ixia since that time, it is impossible to reconcile calling them <quote>Old Kingdom armourers</quote> with the timeline presented in <cite><a href="&link.tmc;">The Magnamund Companion</a></cite>, <quote>Magnamund Then and Now</quote>. According to that book, the Ixians must have been destroyed long before the Age of the Old Kingdoms.</p>
+ <p>(<a idref="sect152">152</a>) It is impossible to reconcile the statement that the native Ixians reigned <quote>in the time of the Old Kingdoms</quote> with the timeline presented in <cite><a href="&link.tmc;">The Magnamund Companion</a></cite>, <quote>Magnamund Then and Now</quote>. According to that book, the Ixians must have been destroyed long before the Age of the Old Kingdoms.</p>
+ <p>(<a idref="sect162">162</a>) It is impossible to reconcile the statement that Old Kingdom magic is <quote>older<ch.ellips/> than the Deathlord<ch.apos/>s vile necromancy</quote> with the timeline presented in <cite><a href="&link.tmc;">The Magnamund Companion</a></cite>, <quote>Magnamund Then and Now</quote> and the statements about the origin of magical power in <quote>The Realms of Northern Magnamund: The Birth of Magnamund</quote> and <quote>The Realms of Southern Magnamund: Man, Magic and the Moonstone</quote> in that same book. According to <cite><a href="&link.tmc;">The Magnamund Companion</a></cite>, magic entered Magnamund with the Elder Magi long after Agarash and his minion, the Deathlord.</p>
+ <p>(<a idref="sect165">165</a>) It is impossible to reconcile the statement that the native Ixians were a <quote>race of the Old Kingdoms</quote> with the timeline presented in <cite><a href="&link.tmc;">The Magnamund Companion</a></cite>, <quote>Magnamund Then and Now</quote>. According to that book, the Ixians must have been destroyed long before the Age of the Old Kingdoms.</p>
+ <p>(<a idref="sect179">179</a>) It is unclear whether Grand Huntmastery should help you find food in this situation. Note that this appears to be the only section within the Grand Master books where Huntmastery is not mentioned in when you are required to eat a Meal. This either means that the current omission is intentional because the author is otherwise so consistent, or it means that Huntmastery was intended to be applied in all situations and this is a unintentional omission.</p>
<p>(<a idref="sect213">213</a>) The section corresponding to the correct answer will have a footnote confirming that it is indeed correct. You have only one chance to guess at the correct answer. If you guess incorrectly, <a idref="sect199">turn immediately to 199</a>.</p>
<p>(<a idref="sect220">220</a>) This is a permanent enhancement to this Weapon.</p>
<p>(<a idref="sect239">239</a>) There is no path which leads to this section of the book. It is functionally identical to <a idref="sect23">Section 23</a> and <a idref="sect242">Section 242</a>, and therefore its isolation does not affect the gameplay of the book.</p>
<p>(<a idref="sect287">287</a>) Kajarda are undead. (See Section <a idref="sect6">6</a>, <a idref="sect8">8</a>, <a idref="sect52">52</a>, <a idref="sect103">103</a>, <a idref="sect120">120</a>, or <a idref="sect265">265</a>.)</p>
<p>(<a idref="sect322">322</a>) The section corresponding to the correct answer will have a footnote confirming that it is indeed correct. You have only one chance to guess at the correct answer. If you guess incorrectly, <a idref="sect84">turn immediately to 84</a>.</p>
+ <p>(<a idref="sect343">343</a>) It is impossible to reconcile the statement that the native Ixians reigned <quote>in the time of the Old Kingdoms</quote> with the timeline presented in <cite><a href="&link.tmc;">The Magnamund Companion</a></cite>, <quote>Magnamund Then and Now</quote>. According to that book, the Ixians must have been destroyed long before the Age of the Old Kingdoms.</p>
