The morning after a monastic holiday, (read that as drunken party) pirates raided the monastery. Naturally the monks and clerics were hungover from the night before and not fighting at their best. In a lightning fast raid the pirates stormed the temple and while they never breached the inner sanctums, they did make off with several clergy and other supplies. Slaves were taken with the aid of magical slaver's collars which can bind even the strongest adepts. Aside from the cost of life, the most notable item stolen was the [[Eye of Kord]] as it had been out of the inner sanctum as part of the festivities. | The morning after a monastic holiday, (read that as drunken party) pirates raided the monastery.
