Inside the Myrmidex Caves

The Myrmidex Caves are the nesting grounds of the Myrmidex of Eodon.

Description

Normally entering the caves would be suicide, since it is swarming with Myrmidex, who wouldn't hesitate to rip apart an intruder in their domain. However, after uniting the tribes, enough of the monsters were drawn away to battle, that the Avatar and the party could descend to force their way through the remaining ones to the Myrmidex Queen. Black staves and bug bombs proved to be devastating weapons, while with the help of the Kotl Device the path to the queen was clearer.

After killing her, they shattered the corrupted moonstone, thus ending the threat to Eodon and in proxy, Earth as a whole.

Lore

“

These are dank, dangerous caverns burrowed out of the earth by the Myrmidex. If you wander into one, and you’re not accompanied by hundreds or thousands of Eodon tribesmen (or the 101st Airborne, which would be a more than adequate substitute), get out fast. Unless you’re with a column of military force that would intimidate a small nation, the Myrmidex will probably chop you up and feed you to their young. – from Malone's Guide to the Valley of Eodon (Savage Empire)

Inhabitants

• Chizzztl: second-in-command
• Xyxxxtl: queen of the Myrmidex

Trivia

• In order to enter the caves, one has to fasten a vine at the hole before descending down. When later enterering the caves for the final battle, leaving through a hole without a vine (and which the group hasn't entered through before) will trigger a bug. Though, leaving through a safe hole also will cause oddness.
