OWLBEAR RUG


As you gaze upon the floor of the Dread Dragon Inn, your eyes land on a massive rug in the center of the room. Upon closer inspection, you realize that the rug is made from the pelt of an owlbear, a fearsome creature known for its sharp claws, powerful beak, and keen senses. The rug is quite large, easily covering a large portion of the room, and the fur is thick and shaggy, giving it a rough, almost unkempt appearance.

The owlbear’s head is still attached to the rug, its beak closed, hiding what you imagine to be sharp teeth and an insatiable gullet. The glass eyes of the rug seem to follow you as you approach, and the claws of the owlbear are also visible, their sharp tips protruding from the fur.

You lift the head of the owlbear rug, wanting to stare at it face to face and imagine what it might be like to fight one. What you find beneath the head is surprising! In place of a floorboard sits a strange stone slab. Six runes run along the stone, and as you peer closer they begin to glow.



Which rune do you touch first?
