Map 237 - The Eye of the West - Dungeon

**Background Lore**

There is a planar observatory in Ardennia. It is located in the mountain range in the middle of the kingdom’s territory. It is close to the capital but due to the difficult journey up the mountain, it takes at least two days to reach the complex. Few travel there for good reasons. To begin, the place is so far up the mountain that the cold is unbearable to most travelers. And second, there are plenty of tales of a merciless guardian inside the observatory. Some tales end with the travelers being turned down who return home empty-handed, other tales end with the travelers being destroyed by the guardian.

All of those tales are true. There is a guardian, and it is a dragon. Some say it is made of stone, others say it has red scales. Others say both things! Regardless of the actual truth, no one travels there. However, a promise of power and knowledge remains. All this because it is said that the observatory in the mountain is capable of seeing any location within this world and even other worlds beyond the stars.
