<p>I kinda wish that I'd just wrapped everything up under Pale Mountain, but felt obligated and was keen to experience a little of the City of Brass. At this point though, I think it's time to close the book. It's been a great run of over 6 years of gaming and I've had a lot of fun. We basically finished the AP, so good work. I'll leave the door open a crack for further exploration of the Plane of Fire, but for now...</p>

Amir and Varkata step upon the flying carpet and the Heroes ascend up the stairway past rows of arrow slits that look out over an entry ramp. The next level up is another large guardroom with arrow slits to the west and south. There is also a stout door to the south. Dual stairs lead up at the north end of the chamber. These chambers are now largely devoid of furnishings, but not of guards. A giant that somewhat resembles an Azer sits upon the stairs up. He is broad and stands twice as high as a very tall man. Fire rises where a beard would be like an Azer, but his skin is like black basalt. A pair of large wolfish creatures with red-brown fur and glowing red eyes immediately start barking loudly.</p>

<p>Amir pulls back his sleeves and gingerly moves his fingers over the hot brass. After long tense moments, the wall slides down safely. The old rogue wipes sweat from his brow and confidently leads the way forward to the bottom of brass stairs leading up. The large corridor continues after the landing first to the right for 250 paces and the right again for about 1000 paces before the passage ends in another wall. Amir double checks it and then finds a way to open it again.</p>
<p>Beyond is an octagonal room rising to a domed apex high overhead. Roaring flames burn in sconces throughout the chamber. The wall you passed through is covered with a bas relief of a horrible barbed devil. Doors of different sizes—some composed of close-fitting brass bars, others formed from riveted brass plates, but all bearing heavy locks—stand closed on each wall of the chamber. All of the doors and bars glow red with heat. Heavy benches complete with manacles at top a bottom and racks or cruel edged and hooked tools identify this place as a torture chamber and dungeon.</p>[dice=Amir disable device]1d20+14[/dice]
