Adventure:The Lost

This is a storyline continued from the adventure Adventure: Down, But Not Out...

Captain Demosthenes is attempting to find shelter from Elphone mercenaries hunting him. With the E-DNA coding stored safe in his backpack, Demosthenes leaves the ruined temple he has set up in to find the remnants of a lost tribe believed to be somewhere on the planet. They may have useful information and shelter from the ruthless mercenaries, so Demosthenes sets out from the temple, dogged by the Elphone scouts, and follows a puzzle inscribed on mysterious "Keros" statues on the planet. The only known facts about the Keros are that they saved the tribe living on the planet from certain demise and that they became martyrs in the war against an unknown assailant. Demosthenes discovers a first statue outside of the temple, telling him that he must reach the Peak of the Martyrs to find the tribe. However, the Peak is surrounded by an ocean full of leviathan monsters, and Demosthenes sets out to find another way to it. A second Keros statue leads him to defeating an epic creature, and a third leads him to an intricate maze where Keros statues inside ask Demosthenes riddles. With his knowledge of the known world, Demosthenes answers correctly, passing through the gates in the maze and ending up near the Peak, which happens to be a volcano. The volcano's summit leads to a Vault, a massive vault-like structure inside a planet carved out by mysterious Forerunners in the Venator Galaxy. Demosthenes, evading Elphone scouts, climbs up to the summit and parachutes down into the Vault...
