Magnus repeats Terranus' chant in a powerful voice, staring directly at the Guardians' cold eyes. "Erda bids you return to your posts!"

At your pronouncement, the statues return to their respective columns and assume the positions they were in when you first entered.

Moving past the hurrying monks, Stilgar huffs as he approaches the Grand Archive. Presuming that nothing prevents him from doing so, he moves to the circle before the stone head.

Shadowborn:
Abandoning the usual formalities, Stilgar asks his question immediately. "A companion of mine is trapped with a prisoner named Terranus, within the Sanctum. He is being assaulted by stone constructs - how do I stop them?"

Shadowborn:
Magnus waits a moment before scooting himself along the roof into Terranus' normal field of vision. Magnus still floats about 10 feet off the ground. He looks to the man and says coyly "So, I think it's fair now that we establish a no-touching rule. Any other surprises that you have for me? ''

Stilgar:
"THE COMMAND-- *AHEM* The command 'Erda bids you return to your posts' must be spoken."

As Stilgar steps into the circle, the monks go rushing up the passage he came from.

Magnus:
Terranus stares at you awhile, apparently lost in thought. Then his bushy brows raise, an expression of realization on his face. "No. I remember. Present a symbol of the Mother and say 'Erda commands I attend this one.' That will keep the guardians asleep. Then no punishment."

A moment later, Gendo, Glacier, and four other monks burst into the room, weapons at the ready, looking a bit surprised by the lack of opponents.

[spoiler=SB] Magnus attempts to spin himself in the air to face the doorway with a twisting/jerking motion. When he gets into position to the see the monks, he brings his finger to his lips "Shh. You'll wake the statues. I need a symbol representing Erda, the Earth Mother to allow us to work further with this gentleman. Go fetch me one such thing." Magnus doesn't attempt to turn around again, he instead calls over his shoulder. "Can you tell me what would qualify as such a symbol, new friend?"


Male Dwarf Cleric of Baal 4

Repeating the phrase to himself but once for memorization, Stilgar wastes no time in running back down the hallway, already huffing from the exertion. Rapidly approaching the open doorway to the prison, the words leave the cleric's mouth even before he fully enters Terranus' cell. "-da bids you return to your-"

The dwarf suddenly stops, stunned by the apparent resolution to his friend's predicament. Only now stowing away his warhammer, Stilgar exhales deeply, both relieved and annoyed. "Baal's breath, Magnus. Are you alright?"

Magnus chortles knowingly. " It seems we all just needed a moment to collect ourselves. I imagine this much excitement all at once is quite a shock for someone who's been without visitors this long. " Magnus descends down to the ground, leaving his step just a little lighter than normal while he briskly picks up the cards that went flying earlier on. "How are we coming on that Erda symbol?"


Male Dwarf Cleric of Baal 4

"At the time it had not occurred to me to simply ask," Stilgar says in agreement, wiping some sweat off his brow. Thinking on the wizard's request, he thinks on whether he knows what the Earth Mother's holy symbol looks like.

If Stilgar's previous check doesn't apply, here is one on Erda:

Knowledge (religion): 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7

Gendo frowns at Magnus a moment. "As none of us are followers, I'm afraid we don't have any just lying around." He looks around the room a moment, pointedly examining the statues and the prisoner. "Perhaps we could keep from disturbing this room any further for the time being? I'd feel more comfortable delaying exploration until my friends arrive."

Stilgar taking 10 knows that Erda has several symbols, the most common being a golden sheaf of wheat on a circular disc of green.

With his rush of adrenaline subsiding, a sudden gout of dull pain reminds Stilgar that he had taken some rather severe blows just moments ago. Murmuring a quiet prayer, he rests a hand over his bruised shoulder.

CMW: 2d8 + 3 ⇒ (7, 8) + 3 = 18

With a surge of positive energy, the vast majority of the dwarf's wounds are healed away. Sighing with satisfaction, he glances towards Terranus.

"So long as nobody comes into contact with him, we should be safe. But I agree nonetheless - we still do not know exactly why he was imprisoned here," he says, rolling his shoulder around, "We will wait for these friends of yours."

Magnus looks to Terranus again, his face contorts and then he turns back to the others. "Alright, we'll come back shortly. For now, let's continue our exploration and clear the rest of the rooms." Magnus then half-bounces out of the room, still light as a feather from levitation. Looking to Stilgar, Magnus scratches his head and looks around at the different doors and hallways. "Where did we leave off?"


Male Dwarf Cleric of Baal 4

"There is still the other passage - the one to the right," Stilgar states, moving back down the hallway, away from the doors. "Perhaps there will be another... intriguing prisoner." He stops for a moment. "Unless you wish to wait on that as well, Brother Gendo. I understand now that this place can be quite dangerous," he says to the monk sincerely.

"I really would feel more comfortable waiting for my friends..." he says.

"What exactly is it that your friends will do in a situation like this, set the man free, leave him be, kill him?" Magnus leans in to Gendo, examining him closely while he responds. Sense motive 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8

Gendo's annoyance is fairly obvious as he gives a sigh. "That remains to be seen. What they can do, I'm certain, is ensure we have the numbers and skill to deal with killer walking statues and any other hazards you may inadvertently let loose while exploring."

Magnus leans back onto an invisible cloud and floats lazily backward, wagging his finger. "Inadvertent, perhaps, but nothing I couldn't handle. I think it would be best if we finish our exploration soon and continue on our way. Stilgar and I have many places to be, and it is clear that we are leaving things in good hands."


Male Dwarf Cleric of Baal 4

Stilgar sighs, shaking his head. "Patience, Magnus. We would not have gotten this far without the help of our friends. Considering what lies ahead, it would not hurt to make some new ones." The cleric's words are dire, making it clear that he talking about more than just the dangers in the sanctum.

Magnus sighs in response "Alright then, I'll retire to cards for the moment. It's Terranus' turn, I believe. " Magnus floats back to the room, and breaks out his cards again. He shuffles and performs a simple act of prestidigitation to allow Terranus to see the cards without touching them.

Content with waiting, Stilgar helps himself to some of the stew and wine that was offered earlier.

If given a moment alone, Magnus will try to gather more information from Terranus about his backstory and how he got here. Magnus is careful not to have this information overheard. diplomacy 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (14) + 8 = 22
