85

"Who are you and state your purpose", the voice emanates from a rainbow coloured aura that has spread from the axe. It swirls around the blade and talon of the weapon, increasing and decreasing in intensity with each word.
"I am an adventurer from the Dwarvendim stronghold of Maenum, here within the walls of Stoneholme on an honourable quest to restore the pillar of stonewood to its full glory."
With the speaking on your words the coloured aura disappears but then returns stronger and more brilliant. Expanding out from the axe the brightly coloured light fills the room. Within its many whirpools of colour and light you can vaguely make out the forms of armoured warriors and huge serpents in some eternal battle. Pushed up against the cold wall of the room you are tranfixed by the enormous conflict being portrayed before you.
Again the aura speaks. "To reach such a conduit of power you will first need to kill the vile beast that guards it. How will you use me to achieve this?"

If you know the Dragonsclaw's purpose turn to section 119. If you do not turn to section 52.
