| abstract | - Hard Place is the fourth scenario in Masters of the Elements. When they arrive in the Plane of Earth, Tarnum's forces discover that there's solid ground, but it feels like they're walking around with weights - everything's a lot heavier. Tarnum feels he's gotten his revenge for poisoning him with seasickness when he sees the mages struggle against the extra weight. While exploring the plane, they meet a group of mages led by Reamus. He tells them that they travelled to the plane to get materials to build the perfect golem, but couldn't find a way back home, so they have been stuck there for sixteen years. But Tarnum's wizards, who have heard of the group, knows that it's actually been 200 years. Barsolar realizes that time passes slower in the Elemental Planes - by the time Tarnum and his group get back, decades will have passed.
