The Archmage's Burial Cache

When the lid finally opens, a breath of cold, incense-soured air spills out like the sigh of a sealed tomb. Beneath the mage's dust-shrouded remains lies a curated scattering of personal relics, ritual tools, and forgotten clues, all arranged with the obsessive care of someone who expected their enemies to outlive them. A faint pulse of old warding magic flickers across the interior, reminding the party that this sarcophagus was a last refuge, not a simple grave.
