Piercedaspid Work < HD >

The Aspid presented Arin with a riddle:

Arin thanked the Pierced Aspid and hastened back to her sister, the crystal clutched in her hand. Her sister's condition improved dramatically, and soon she was on her feet, smiling once more.

Deeper within the lair, she discovered a vast chamber filled with glittering crystals and a magnificent statue of an asp. And there, coiled around the statue's base, lay the Pierced Aspid. The creature's body was enormous, its scales glinting like diamonds in the flickering torchlight.

Arin's eyes widened as she approached the Aspid. A single, glittering gemstone protruded from the creature's forehead, casting a mystical glow across the chamber. According to legend, this gemstone was the source of the Aspid's power.
