Disaster at the Dreadstation

The Disaster at the Dreadstation is a plot point in the Sabre of Meitor campaign. Marked by the death of Aeron Sweetboy, the Heroes of Time became embroiled in a plot to fake the death of Sero Zamod to avoid his men being slaughtered at the hands of Bramble the Brutal.

Plot
After returning from the Isle of the Ancients, the heroes continued to press on the Dreadstation to meet Bramble the Brutal with the Clans of the Thicket in tow.

They were able to enter the Dreadstation with the help of Sero Zamod's new captain; Harry. They began the long climb up the tower, almost dying a few times because of various cursed items locked away.

Upon reaching the top floor, they were greeted by Sero Zamod who pleaded with the heroes to help fake his own death to dupe Bramble and the oncoming Armanian Army. They agreed to help and formed a plan.

After an argument, Ertelas stumbles across a hidden chamber where Ignat the Lava Bow was stored. The bow chooses to accept Ertelas, promoting her to a lava magus. With the new power of Ignat, Ertelas is able to help fake Sero's death by destroying the Dreadstation with a single lava arrow.

The oncoming Armanian Army, led by Bramble the Brutal witnessed this destruction and fell for the bluff. Unfortunately, as the tower exploded, Aeron was crushed beneath flaming debris and subsequently died.
