Lore
Few spider dungeons exist in the world of Versturm. Many were wiped out when Tom Alhara tried (and nearly succeeded at) discovering all of Versturm during the second age. There are approximately 6 spider dungeons left in Versturm, 3 of them being undiscovered. This spider dungeon is special because it contains the remains of James Moresby, the great knight of Korsodous Castle during the third age. James did not die in the cave, he was actually tasked with killing a dragon from the king of Korsodous. He had information that the dragon was hiding in the small spruce forest, Blackhill Grove. When he was searching for the dragon he fell into the spider dungeon. He managed to fight off the spiders and escaped. However, the spiders had their eye on him. He was their new prey. When James died to the dragon the spiders saw a feast and dragged his body into the dungeon. They stuffed his remains and valuable armour into a chest. They did this thinking that a wannabe adventurer would take the mission of retrieving his armour. When the wannabe adventurer enters the dungeon the spiders will all attack and have food to last them a month. Then they just rinse and repeat, adventurer after adventurer. The perfect plan, unless the adventurer has decent gear and a gold pickaxe...
