By Jeff Simpson, for Seven Voyages of Zylarthen (or anything, really)
This is not really an adventure, or a site. This is a situation, something possible to find on a random encounter table perhaps, with the focus here on a frozen tableau with a warrior and a wizard standing in front of a dead thief, watched over by an angel. Angel has frozen them in time to wait for a rando party to wander in and render judgement. It’s a quirky idea, entertaining enough, but certainly not what we’re looking for in ASC. That being said, if you like the idea for your random encounter table, it’s got some interest. All three mortals (warrior, wizard, thief) are brothers, with the wizard getting tricked by a devil, tricking the warrior in turn, and the thief for once in the whole history of the hobby NOT responsible for causing issues. Said devil can be summoned to also weigh in, but condemning him just gets an attaboy from the angel and doesn’t do much else. Rewards are an ancient sword of chaos (if you condemn the warrior), a spellbook (if you condemn the wizard), or the angel’s gavel (as war hammer, if you condemn the devil). Refusing judgement keeps everyone stuck. Some parties would hate this, some parties will love this, ymmv. I don’t have much else to say about it, other than being continually charmed by Jeffe’s impressive art:
