Snacks for Abaddon - Story of a planted Soul Gem

Corvus, Leyla, Rauric, Reu (Pronounced Ryu), and Faunra went down to a shady area of town in search of a job they had found fliers and whispers of. Finding a young boy named Seven, they would be lead down into the sewers to find a secret temple of Urgathoa hidden deep underground. An enigmatic young man would give them a nondescript quest to go and find an object which he didn't describe, as well as not giving them any real reason to do this other than that pay. They accepted, and ended up searching out to the coast with Seven as their guide. They encountered a large amount of Daemons, which ambushed them into the night. They were dispatched with minor difficulty, and when they got to the coast they would find a battle between strong Daemons and another group of adventurers. With help from the adventurers (who all got slain or fled in the process), they would manage to defeat the Daemons and retrieve the object, which they found to be a shiny soul gem. Corvus ended up killed in the process though, unfortunately taking a critical strike from an enervation spell.

Happy Ending, right?

When returning to their quest giver, he revealed that he had planted the gem there all along, and sent them out to retrieve it so he could study the daemons that would try to steal it from them, as well as that he hired the other group of adventures to compete with them! He used the services of the church to reincarnate Corvus, turning him back into a Human.
