+== Illusion 1 ==
+//A magic painting depicts a spring day on a high, green hill, making it seem as
+if the sun reaches this room as well as the green slope. You can almost smell
+apple blossoms and awakening flowers. People in fine clothes stand around the
+hill, and it is as if you are among them. Central in the scene is a tall, raven-
+haired man dressed in shining plate armor, kneeling before a blond man and a
+red-haired woman, each wearing golden crowns.//
+== Illusion 2 ==
+//The room quickly fills with the image of the hill you saw before, now covered
+in brown grass, flames leaping into the sky off in the distance. The dark-haired
+man in shining armor wields two curved swords, battling howling goblinoids and
+baying wolves. Beside him fights the blond king wielding a black longsword.
+Light sparkles on the blade and the king's crowned helmet. The red-haired woman
+holds her ground behind and between the two, her staff held aloft as lightning
+strikes her foes. Your hair stands on end and your skin tingles, as if
+electricity were really in the air.//
+== Illusion 3 ==
+//Snow covers the hill, but bloodstains clash with the mud and frost. The blond
+king has fallen to one knee, his left arm hanging useless at his side. Bestial
+humanoids surround him as he caresses the cheek of the red-haired woman lying
+mortally wounded before him. Behind the golden-haired king stands the raven-haired
+knight, his silver armor stained with blood and his eyes wild with triumph,
+wrath, and greed. He holds the king's crown aloft with one hand as his curved
+blade slices down at the king in the other.//

+In addition to learning about the forgotten king, Yosi and Ash are deeply shaken
+by what they see in a magical mirror in one tomb room and the party encounters
+two horrible undead -- creatures who had escaped from their magically sealed
+sarcophagi.  The battle nearly kills Allie and ravages the party as a whole.
+Included in the loot are a ceremonial longsword (which Allie keeps), and a
+magical suit of plate mail (which Ash takes).
