Part 1 Of Templars and Assassins
They are headed for the Al-Qaryatayn Oasis.
'''One of the The Templar Sergents chaplain drink from one of the waterskins found on the caravan, and it contains blood instead of water. All of their waterskins were contaminated with blood. To make sure they can't drink it in case they are still alive.'''
Some merchants of Al-Qaryatayn paid the Templars for protection and safe passage. So they have to help.
At the center of the village the pillagers throw dead corpses into the oasis to contaminate it.
'''It is followed very thoroughly by a lot of toads. An army of small toad eyes. Very strange that there would be so many toads here. The Templar chaplain is very surprised that there would be toads here.'''
At the center, they see a tall hooded figure with a crude crown.
On him they find a very strange scroll case.
This scroll tube is made of clay but covered in arabic writings, there's a strange broken lead seal on the scroll case . Action : if anyone has Knowledge or Polyglot : The arabic writings are prayers of protection from what's inside the tube. One the tube is also inscribed the Seal of Solomon for protection. The lead seal is a templar seal on one side and a seal from an unknown family on the other. Inside there's a very long dark parchement which seems to be the rubbing (frottage en français) of a piece of chalk over some ancient and unreadable runes.There's a text in Arabic written below each lines, like a translation. Action : Knowledge (cryptography or heresy) or Polyglot the original text is in Hieratic which is normally undecipherable and there's a translation in Arabic but it's very hard to understand. Ask the players : Who tries to read it ? Make a list of all players who collaborate to try to read it, this is very important.  With skilled work and restraint it will ascend from the Earth to Heaven and descend to Earth from Heaven. And within itself is the power of the highest and of the lowest, within it is cothe light of lights, therefore darkness flees from it. Power of powers. It can conquer every subtle thing, and penetrate everything gross. And it goes on and on very difficult to understand
