It reads, "Let there be fire."
Lebris takes a look at the fountain and can see that a thin layer of scum coats the fountain’s basin, but it is otherwise dry. However, when Feyce reads the phrase aloud reddish liquid begins to well from the diving dragon’s mouth, slowly accumulating in the basin.
Do we have anything we could use to collect the liquid in the basin? It could come in handy later.
I would guess we have water skins in our packs, would that do?
I was looking in my burglar's pack, and I've got 2 flasks of oil. I'll pour one out, and we can use that
What do you guys think 'Rebuke the dead'?
What about the bas-relief over on the other wall?
Sounds like a job for Morgran?
I wish I had your high opinion of me laddie
Yeah, I think so. Sounds like something a holy roller would do.
Yes, getting the liquid. Pass it to Feyce.
Lebris will begin to move cautiously towards the door.
The door does not show any signs of being threatened by the approaching rogue.
Um, guys, there's something bad about this door. Looks like there's a trap or something
Lebris is able to spot some sort of blade trap above the door and has the skill to disable it, or so he believes as he jams the slit with a piton (or like object) from the party's possessions.
Hey guys, I'm gonna see if the door will open.
Lebris will open the door by attempting to stand behind it, in case something is in there,
Lebris tries to open the door but it is locked. He notices that the air near the door is noticeably cooler compared to the rest of the room and the door itself is quite cold to the touch. He also discovers that his attempt to disable the trap has failed and a scythe blade springs forth!
However the rogue is too quick as the grating noise gives him plenty of warning to dodge the blade.
Both Dave and the rogue go to work on trying to gain entry on the door, however there seems to be some magic at work here that prevents them from opening the lock.
It's on the tip of my tongue, no it is gone. Sorry, no idea
Dave shrugs.
Onward?
lead the way. Looks like another door here.
Stumped by this particular portal, the party moves further into the complex. A simple door is located in the western wall of this entry chamber. A musky smell comes from the hallway from the north. This section of hallway contains six doors, all slightly ajar.
Dave tries the door.
Dave is able to open the door and finds another empty room similar to the open you encountered when you first arrived at this area of the complex. Dust, debris and little else occupies the room outside of a common door in the north wall.
Lebris will move into the room and get ready for the next door
Dave examines the door.
Mind checking for traps? I neglected the last door, but I'd rather avoid another scythe.
Dave takes a cursory glance, seeing nothing out of the ordinary. However the sometimes brash fighter elects to ask for a second opinion.
It's a room, it's got 4 walls and two doors
(Whisper)Careful lads, there seems to be tampering with the door near the handle as well as resent tracks
with Morgran's knowledge, Lebris will open the door
Lebris opens the door carefully enough that he spots a bell that has been attached to the other side. He believes that he should be able to open the door fully without sounding the bell if he desires.
Oh, I think that would be best at this point. Let's do that.
Dave touches a silencing finger to his lips...
I wonder who's waiting to hear that?
Dave narrows his eyes and raises his sword in vigilance, moving quietly to the door.
He peers curiously at the debris sprinkled around the floor.
The ten-foot-wide hall is liberally strewn with sharp caltrops. On the northern wall, passage to the room beyond is partially blocked by a roughly mortared, three-foot-high wall, complete with crenellations. Also beyond the wall are two goblins that seem blissfully unaware of your presence at the moment.
Quickly assessing the tactical situation, Dave boldy acts.
As Lebris and the goblins resolve their actions, Dave Dashes toward his foes, albeit at half speed to avoid the potentially lethal nuisance of the caltrops.
Leaping over the low wall he lands nose-to-nose with the tiny humanoids, his giant sword looming as punishment should either attempt to flee.
Lebris will use his short bow at the goblin closest to him
The poor, innocent goblin dies at the hands of the invading elf! The second goblin's jaw simply drops in disbelief at the death of his friend!
Understandably scared out of his wits, the goblin abandons any hope of saving his friend and scampers out of the room by fleeing through the door to the southwest!
Feyce moves through the caltrop room at half speed and then uses his Action to "Dash" (again, at half speed) into the room in which Dave is waiting and take up position along the northern wall of the room.
Lebris will go around the corner and enter the room, and hold his action until he sees what's there.
Not seeing where the goblin went with his movement, Lebris will dodge
Lebris chases after the goblin while the sorcerer positions himself along the north wall.
Lebris will motion to everyone to be careful and move slowly.
I think we've entered into some kind of a practice range.
