Between Ischell and Doran, they quickly make work of the final effigy....
You make your way through the secret door you discovered when you entered the room....
Eerie green lights burn all along the walls of this laboratory. A staircase ascends to the east, and a collapsed one lies to the west. A stained-glass window looms over an operating slab where the remains of a humanoid creature lie chained to the stone. Several tablets and other strange items lie atop the various tables.
The tablets contain information about both infusing constructs with energy and the war with Ancient Osirion. One tablet details Jistkan plans to arm constructs with manufactured weapons designed to combat their div enemies.
TREASURE: +1 Bastard Sword

|
Doran studies the tablets and ponders their meaning for a while as he recalls his lessons in foreign languages his uncle taught him.
Never thought those days cooped up in a library with Uncle Linndell would amount to much....he says absentmindedly. These tablets describe ancient weapon crafting techniques...possibly valuable to certain museums or libraries.
He grabs the sword.
This is a finely crafted blade...cannot tell the style, but robust...he says as he swibgs it a few times and grunts in satisfaction at its feel.
|
|
Having nothing left to explore in the ruins, you decide to travel back to the museum to meet with Zefiro and tell him of your findings, to see what he makes of everything you have learned...
On the way back Malora, Mindartis, and Elemenar all spot an avian silhouette passing in front of the moon before flapping off in the direction of the museum. When you arrive to meet with Zefiro, the museum appears dark and empty except for several muffled voices audible in the building’s east wing.
|
Elemenar catches a glimpse of the flying creature. Worry grows in his mind. While not always given to assuming that all unusual events are evil, their recent encounters and discovery of many deceptive items leaves him suspicious.
Once outside the museum Elemenar notices the muffled voices. He strains to hear what they are saying.
|
|
Ischell moves forward, approaching the doors of the museum. "I don't like the feel of this, dudes. Something feels off" He closes his eyes, and asks Irori to grant him additional senses.
Range 60 ft.
Area cone-shaped emanation
Duration concentration, up to 10 min./ level (D)
You can sense the presence of evil. The amount of information revealed depends on how long you study a particular area or subject.
1st Round: Presence or absence of evil.
2nd Round: Number of evil auras (creatures, objects, or spells) in the area and the power of the most potent evil aura present.
If you are of good alignment, and the strongest evil aura's power is overwhelming (see below), and the HD or level of the aura's source is at least twice your character level, you are stunned for 1 round and the spell ends.
3rd Round: The power and location of each aura. If an aura is outside your line of sight, then you discern its direction but not its exact location.
Each round, you can turn to detect evil in a new area. The spell can penetrate barriers, but 1 foot of stone, 1 inch of common metal, a thin sheet of lead, or 3 feet of wood or dirt blocks it.

Double doors open into a hall filled with bookshelves, display cases, and two large tables piled with manuscripts. Several oil lamps keep the darkness at bay even at night. A rolling ladder stands at the east end of the library. Two staircases near the doors rise to the balconies on both sides of the hall. The railed balconies run across the length of the hall with a third one rising even higher to the east. There, a pair of doors leads into a second-story office.
A woman with dark, flowing hair speaks from the highest balcony. “How nice of you to deliver yourselves to me. I was just about to come find you! I strongly advise that you turn yourself in for questioning—though I must admit that part of me hopes you won’t, since our friends to the east are sure to hammer the truth out of the traitor Zefiro anyway.”
|
Striding into the room, Malora scowls up at the woman.
"I am Lawmaster Malora Nagovya! In the name of Abadar, Master of the First Vault, and Keeper of Law and Order, CONFESS YOUR CRIMES!! Have you caused harm to come to Zefiro? Are you involved in the false history being created at the archaeological site! SPEAK!"
"Surrender and you will be treated fairly!"
While she attempts to ascertain exactly what crimes she should judge this woman for, Malora begins to climb the stairs up to the balcony.
|
|
As the doors open, Elemenar hears the voice from inside. Sensing an impending conflict, Elemenar retrieves his armor wand and casts a spell on himself. Then he moves into the building to get a better look at the woman he heard speaking. Once he has a clear view he glares at her, a silent posture to back up Malora's strident demand.

Striding into the room, Malora scowls up at the woman.
"I am Lawmaster Malora Nagovya! In the name of Abadar, Master of the First Vault, and Keeper of Law and Order, CONFESS YOUR CRIMES!! Have you caused harm to come to Zefiro? Are you involved in the false history being created at the archaeological site! SPEAK!"
"Surrender and you will be treated fairly!"
[dice=Intimidate]1d20+4
While she attempts to ascertain exactly what crimes she should judge this woman for, Malora begins to climb the stairs up to the balcony.
The lady laughs at you. "I am Iluvia Thorn. I have found Zefiro Balinger and found him guilty of treason. His willful disregard of his civic duty to destroy the non compliant historical documents is without doubt. You are outnumbered. It is you who will surrender."
|
|
Ischell moves up the left staircase, opposite of Malora. He measures his steps carefully, pulling up 15 ft short of the figures on the balcony. The kamas spin in his hand, resetting his grip and readying his reflexes. Looking up, he glares at the woman speaking.
+2 to attack
+1 to damage
+2 Deflection AC (New AC 20, Touch 14, FF 18)
”I wouldn’t question the Lawmaster’s sense of duty or ethics, man. If you are responsible for all of that faked history stuff back there- then I hate to think what she is going to do to you...
|
|
"Iluvia Thorn, you are hereby judged UNREPENTANT for your CRIMES of falsification of history and unlawful apprehension of innocents. I will ask you one final time to SURRENDER, lest this end in bloodshed!"
Malora spares a glance to the nearby soldiers ( "Lay down your arms and you will not be judged guilty," she tells them.
|
|
The guards and thugs and Iluvia laugh in Malora's face.
Ischell, weapons clearly waved, and smiting evil, causes Iluvia to say a single word...."Attack"
