Anyone wounded?
Anyone wounded?
Vrealk continues sticking his dagger into the spider long after it's dead. "Me hates spiders! They the worst of the dumb bugs. Nasty poison and fangs that hurt!"
After a moment or two, he composes himself; he then readies himself to head back into the shrine in his scouting capacity.

N'Djamena channels some healing energy for the wounded.
Larrs didn't get hit this battle, he was just running around smashing things!
Vrealk
Past the pillar room you find another room. Roughly 30 feet long and 60 feet wide, the room has no rough and is dust covered. What floor that may have been here is long gone and the walls are crumbling and blank. But an archway leads deeper still and Vrealk sensing no danger in this room ventures a bit deeper still.
A sense of restrained power premeates the air of this dusty room It is the only room within the ruins that the roof remains intact. One the walls carvings depict a radiant figure. At his mighty command legions of elementals build cities, raging seas calm and enemy's are brought to accord. Four falcon-headed statures guard the chamber to the west. Between them a a broad flagstone cats up into th air, a trap door no longer a secret.
Popping up as if from nowhere, Vrealk reports back to his friends. "Friend-N'Djamena, me thinks you will like to see what me found. Me saw no new creatures or traps, so me thinks we can all come in. Be quiet though! We don't wanna warn anything that might be still further than I went."
As they go in, Vrealk will quietly describe what he saw. (Check spoiler)
As you enter this chamber red silky curtains seems to shimmer into being on the doorways or this room.
N'Djamena
The carving on the wall are clearly Nethys and his cloud like herald Arcanotheign

Ayish follows along beside her brother Xerxzayas, a light skip in her step.
Knowledge Religion
Celena is to busy trying to play catch up with the party to really look or think about what,s on the walls.
Know: religion
"These carvings are of Nethys -- praise be unto him! -- and that cloud is his herald, Arcanotheign. It fills my heart with gladness to see that this temple is relatively intact."
N'Djamena shines a light and sees where the trapdoor leads. Then he examines the mural and checks the room with Detect Magic, for good measure.
From above it seems to lead into some kind of chamber below. You can see there is light below and what looks to be some kind of Arcane markings along the walls and steps

Theses seem to be basic building blocks of arcane theory. Mostly used in destructive spells, evocation mostly.

"Markhet doesn't know much about these gods," the gnome says as N'Djamena examines the writing, "but she thinks those look more like wizard words then priestly words. Does the priest's god cast destructive magics?"
Know:
"Yes, Nethys is known in two aspects -- that of creative magic and that of destructive magic. But these symbols are unknown to me."
"Interesting," Markhet says, clearly trying to be polite, and clearly wanting to say more about N'Djamena's schizophrenic deity, but knowing to keep her mouth shut.
"Yes, all very nice. Too bad mighty Abagorae doesn't have a spot here, but oh well. Me will check out the room below."
Vrealk peers down through the trap door first, making sure there's a way down, and using his darkvision to see what's in there.
Perception
If it looks clear, he'll quietly head down.
stealth
First, N'Djamena is going to finish his survey of the room (using Detect Magic, and carefully examining the mural).
N'djamena looks around the room and Vrealk runs off down the stairs heedless of Xerxzayas's words
N'djamena
Vrealk
Ceramic lamps burning with cadaverous blue flame light this wide, high-ceilinged chamber. To the southwest, a baboonheaded figure crouches menacingly. A stern-looking pharaoh stares across at it from the northeast. Carved folds of well sculpted cloth enshroud the northwest statue, and in the southeast niche, the pharaoh is again depicted, his face scarred and twisted with anger. Three arches lead from the chamber, the fragments of shattered doors dangling on ancient hinges.
"How sad; there is an illusion put here -- no doubt by faithful believers -- that is dying out. What a pity. Hopefully it can be restored to its former glory. Now then, let's explore this tunnel."
N'Djamena keeps his detect magic spell going as he enters the trap door.
"How sad; there is an illusion put here -- no doubt by faithful believers -- that is dying out. What a pity. Hopefully it can be restored to its former glory. Now then, let's explore this tunnel."
As a practitioner of 'entertainment' type magics, Aish takes note of the illusion that has been pointed out by N'Djamena with an eye to, indeed, restoring the magics to its former glory.
Though she stays respectfully beside her brother.
"Markhet thinks it is a very nice ruin though," the gnome says as she stroke's Larrs' mane, "but Markhet likes the green way, when our followers leave you need to be very observant indeed to find the traces of our religious places. Markhet can understand people's needs to prove that they were here and that their god was important though. It is kind of touching really."
Vrealk returns to the group, informing them of what he saw. (look at spoiler)

Ayish smiles at the little Gnome comments.
"Well, your land of green sounds truly wonderful but we are in a Desert, a land of howling, shifting sanded wilderness so I do not begrudge people from trying to straighten things out with buildings and roads and other nice things for people to live."
At Vrealks description Ayish looks to N'Djamena. "Um, does that sound correct for your temples?" She asks, slight worry suddenly coming across her features. "A Monkey monster?" Ayish shifts a little closer to the strength her brother represents.
Ayish smiles at the little Gnome comments.
"Well, your land of green sounds truly wonderful but we are in a Desert, a land of howling, shifting sanded wilderness so I do not begrudge people from trying to straighten things out with buildings and roads and other nice things for people to live."
"That's what Markhet once thought as well," the small gnome says with a laugh, but then her demeanour instantly switches to that of a priestess, somehow instantly sounding aged and mature, "but the world need life more then we need roads and buildings. Although roads and builds are nice, Markhet does not begrudge their construction, but this desert with roads and buildings is no more habitable then without. What the desert needs is life. Life begets life. The Green faith is no more absent here then anywhere else. The life is here if you know where to look."
N'Djamena sighs in exasperation. "All right, Markhet -- if you think the gods are unimportant and you don't need their blessings, I'm sure that's fine with me."
"Now let's go and take a look at this shrouded pharaoh statue."
N'Djamena goes down, his Detect Magic spell still running.

"Be careful! These statues are radiating evocation magic, and they are religious symbols of destructive magic. That could mean that they are trapped in some way."
