Final Days of Redemption

Day 152 October 1st 1005
Final days of Redemption, all of Diescroth prepares for the ascent of Blindhelm. A huge ceremony culminating with the eye regeneration, which on Psinar's request, will be cast by him (not off scroll). Forbiddance password is provided to Psinar for the ceremony. First, Blindhelm is presented with the +5 shield by Ardon, 2 remove curses 36th level. Holding the shield above his head, he employs both remove curses, effectively cleansing himself. The ceremony continues with various priestly vows and rights, hence anointed him 6th priest. Psinar descends from the upper gallery, and lays his hands on a kneeling Blindhelm. Blindhelm collapses into a trance for 1 turn, while the congregation prays. Awakening from a vision, Blindhelm mutters, then yells one word three times, showing his newly regenerated eyes with a maniacal glare at the faithful. "Kost...ch.., Kostchtchie, Kostchtchie! Hextor's tribute for my sight will be your head!" Psinar smiles, nods to Blindhelm, Ardon, Raven... says "The fates may smile on your quest, until again... " He then transforms into a column of whirling sand, which expands into a tornado of energy, sand and light, then collapses in on itself and winks out of existence. A echo follows him "Beware your own tactics against you." Blindhelm dawns his new Helm of Icar with visor, and marches out onto the platform to view Diescroth for the first time. Guesses at length of blindness - 994 cy at the first attack against Greytail.
