'Sit, child,' says the old woman, gesturing to the chair opposite. 'I am Mother Magri, seer of the Kazim Stone, Law Giver to the city of Suhn, Truthsayer of Shadaki in the service of the Wytch-king, Shasarak.' The old crone peers at you with hypnotic eyes. 'Look into the Kazim Stone, boy,' she commands, 'that the truth may be revealed.'

Unable to resist, your eyes are drawn by the power of the Stone as it shines brightly, filling the chamber with a lurid yellow glow. With a gasp of horror, you feel fiery fingers reach into your mind and clutch at your will. Your mind is being read by a potent magical force.

If your current WILLPOWER score is less than 15, turn to 150.

If it is more than 15, turn to 175.
