The lost island of Hy'Thuinl

An isle as shrouded in mists as mystery, has appeared in the western seas. According to spirit whispers, this isle appears only once every seven years, and so it appears around the seven-year anniversary of Celtic Heroes.

Legend speaks of a lost island once occupied by a highly advanced civilization; a land rich of unspeakable treasures, magical beings, and wondrous structures.

According to the whispers, this once peaceful land has been overrun by evil spirits. The castle of the Great Magician now stands in ruin, and echoes of lost souls can be heard form its vestiges. The voices murmur of a great evil.
What has become of the inhabitants and treasures of this mysterious isle? And by what power has it been hidden for so long? What secrets await discovery?

An old fisherman living in a small shack just east of the northern peninsula has reported to Lord MacLir a strange man washed ashore near his home. The man claims to be a messenger sent from the Eerie Depths by a peaceful Mermaid Queen of a glorious City of Coral and Pearls, to bring news of a terrible curse that has been unleashed, bringing pirates back from the dead and turning many sea creatures against them, which is threatening the lives of all within her city. The strange man offers you a way to travel to the city and a charm which glows with power that will protect you from the crushing weight of the ocean and also allow you to breath underwater, in exchange for a favor. Once you arrive at the city, you speak with the queen and she tells you of the curse and how it came to be. She speaks of her sibling who was offered great power at the cost of his soul, and because he no longer had his soul he lost all care for the city and its people and released an evil curse. She urges you to locate Barinthus, the god of the sea, and seek his help in defeating her evil brother in order to destroy the curse. But you have been warned, there are many dangerous foes in the depths including the Undead Pirate King guarding his sunken treasures and the massive Leviathan of the Deep who has razor sharp scales (great for making weapons and armor) and devours everything in its path, but by defeating them you may find powerful weapons and armor to aid you in your journeys.

In a forbidden land no one would enter was a cursed isle. Surrounded by mist and fog, it would the most treterous adventure any hero would go on. Not only was the island that you could barely see filled with cultists with blood smeared on their faces but the seas took most of the lives of the brave who tried to land. Surrounding the isle there are many foes stopping you from landing. Cultists smiling wide as they would cut your throat, singing chants that would make even the mightiest hero shiver in fear. For those heroes who do land would have to fight back. Cultists! Zombies! Homunculus! Good luck heroes, you'll need it.

Forgotten caves of Ar-tarox
(name was generated random by my mind couldnt find any celtic name that would fit my zone)

Long time ago in times of old evil celtic gods deep mines below fingals cave were made. Mines had its own underground city with majestic temple in centre of it. All was digged by bare hands of celtic people, slaves, that had to work there til death. After evil gods were imprisoned those caves with whole city were burried in ground and any document that mentioned them was burned. With time those places were forgotten.
But nowadyas miners in fingals cave digged so deep that they discovered hidden tunnels that lead to burried city with temple in centre. It must be ages old! Lord MacLir send many of his men to discover secrets of this land but only few returned. They were scared and pale. Its quite long since they returned but they havent spoken single word from their return. Now lord MacLir decided those tunnels need to be investigated and he requests YOU, his brave heroes to discover all secrets of those forgotten land.

How it should work:
I imagine map with entrance somewhere from fingals cave (best would be ladder in hole in middle of fingals cave map). That would lead to tunnels (would be like tunnels in carrow with single caves). All tunnels will lead to huge cave with city. There would be few NPC (ghosts of dead slaves) that could give you quests to explore cave. In middle of city would be temple, which would be small single location (only for lvl 220+) with 2 floors. First floor will be with different 235 mobs (1-4*), mobs should be some living statues (guardians of temple). On second floor there would be situated boss. 230 6* chaos mob - boss. It would be heavily guarded. It would drop descent charms, necks and mainly good offhands (since gele doesnt drop em). There could be more bosses situated somewhere in city or tunnels. Oh i forgot: in caves mobs would be spiders and golems (220-225) and city will be full of ghosts and skeletons (225-230). I hope this was all what i wanted ... Oh and forgot city and way to it would be decorated but decorations will be ruined already and covered with moss. That should be finally all!

P.S.: Thanks for reading and sorry for any typo i might have made and sorry for my english im not native speaker but really wanted to take part in this competition!

Edit: Forgot details about me eventho they are in signature ...

Edit2: Gonna write about boss in temple more details.

That boss should be 230 6* and it would look like monolith (but not like yule event ones i imagine "part of wall" quite damaged, covered with different runes).

(Little lore: It was used by captains of caves to speak with their gods. Now they are away but monolith covered with old runes seem to be still active! You can translate only one rune on it: KEEP OUT! haha nothing can happen when we touch it)

Boss will be surrounded by 4 statues 220 5* (one north side, one south side, one on west side, one east side) Boss will be neutral (yellow name) until u kill one of his statue. Until u kill all his statues he will have permanent Croms shield (cannot be damaged by any damage) When u kill one of his statues it will release his fury. He will be caster (magic, chaos dmg mostly), no autos but will hit with huge dmg and his skills would have quite quick recast. But he should be tankable by one tank with few druids. As it is stone monolith it would have high pierce/slash/crush resists (high armour), but low evasions and defence. Mages should be getting most of his kills. It should not require as much people as gelebron because of lvl requirement. There could be few more chaos statues 4* as adds. Boss should drop Offhands of The Forgotten One (updgraded edl) and neck and charms with skill points and stat points.
