Old Skool dungeon crawl

This was literally "old school", as these are the miniatures we used to use back in college over 20 years ago!
This was an installment of the Great Sir Hiffin and his Templar White Cloaks.
Hiffin, Mugabe and 2 squires are tasked with recovering the Cross of St. Croix.  It was stolen from Anthrax Abbey by a Basque thief known as Rochelle.  The cross was used to seal up a Gothic tomb in the Valley of Chaos.
Using his superior powers of deduction, Sir Hiffin deducted that the cross has been stolen to open the tomb.  His group travels to the crypt and finds it open.  They journey inside hot on the trail of the crooks.  Dealing with some Draugr on the way.
In one corridor is a demonic 3 headed dog, but fortunately the Hiffin doesn't hae to go that way.
Mugabe scouts ahead and tracks the thieves to a vault...
The thieves are trapped.  Hiffin uses his powers of persuaion to convince them to surrender and come clean about their motives.  They were sent to this vault by the Black prince of Basque to obtain anti-dragon weapons as they had been raided by Grund the dragon and feared he would return.  Hiffin had positive dealings with the Black Prince during the Basque war, so he wrote him a diplomatic letter and sent the thieves home.  Rochelle was so enamored of Hiffin's selfless deeds and natural charms, it was all he could do to get her to leave his side.  As she rode across the border he could see a tear in her eye.
