An Unintended Offering

Yeh’kinya directed adventurers to recover an ancient vessel and carry it into the Sunken Temple. There, the defeat of an avatar supplied the essence needed to fill the Egg of Hakkar. The instructions appeared to make the danger containable.

Later investigation revealed the opposite purpose. The egg had helped return Hakkar to the world in Zul’Gurub. By the time Yeh’kinya was confronted, the warning came too late to prevent it.

The failed containment joins two expeditions into one story. Killing an immediate enemy was not enough when the person directing the recovery intended to use the remains. The next campaign had to confront the consequence.
