"If you wish to become Klaven, you will not notice wounds. Conversion center on this floor."
The workbench holds a plethora of alchemical supplies, including a couple of flasks of acid. A box beneath the bench holds 3 potion vials.
"By becoming Klaven, we would give up our personalities and our identities? That does not sound like a good trade."
Seeing no interest in the cure light wounds infusion he just made, Haer Kul puts it away, and examines the 3 potion vials.
"Sadly, it does not appear that I have time to use these supplies to make anything useful."
"If I may update the inventory: We have 1 infusion of cure light wounds, which must be used today. We also have a scroll and two potions of the same. And, these two potions of cure moderate wounds." Indicating two of the newly-found potions.
"The third potion is spider climb. I suggest that Morgrom or Slick take that one."
"If you wish me to be of use I might suggest we rest."
"Morgrom would have more use for a potion of Spider Climbing. I suggest we check the rooms on this level before resting to ensure we can only be attacked by something coming through the shaft."
Andretta translates Slick's comment, and adds, "That seems to make sense, though we should heal the wounded as much as possible first. And hope there are no more Tausleks."
To B3NR - "If you wait for us to rest, we will accompany you to the gate. As time is of the essence, perhaps you could even keep watch for us and wake us should something approach. Do you have a timing mechanism? Perhaps you could make a ringing bell noise in 8 hours?"
"I am not opposed to making sure this level is safe first."
BR-N3R speaks.
"Destination not specified."
Let's explore through the door closest to Petronicus on the map.
"It's as good as any."
The group makes their way to the door which had a zombie outside it earlier.
As they approach, BR-N3R interjects, "Approaching observation area."
"M. Bayarr Entreearr, what will we be observing in the observation area?"
"Area is used for observing combat capabilities of specimens."
Slick would like to have a potion of cure moderate to carry.
Morgrom should take the spider climb.
Slick will stand in third rank with katana out as per door opening procedure in discussion thread

The chosen door opens easily, requiring only a touch on the glowing green circle beside it.
Beyond is a large, unoccupied, unlit chamber. There are a pair of doors on the east wall. The wall in between the two doors is made of thick glass starting about 3' above the floor, with a small room behind the glass.
"Be careful, the middle of this room looks very slippery"
Slick moves into the room, walking around the periphery. He will reach out to touch the smooth floor surface, testing it out, and then move to the glass between the two doors to peer in.
Thorthal will enter the room, and follow after Slick.
Bardos enters the room.
Slick notes that the feeling of the floor does not match its appearance. The small area beyond the glass contains some sort of metal desk, with a few dials, lights, and small levers on its upper surface.
The two doors in the east wall each have the glowing circles beside them.

"The slick-looking floor doesn't seem so slick Mr. Slick," says Bardos slickly while walking on the slick-looking floor with Slick. He stands in the middle of the room and concentrates.
Bardos makes his way to the center of the room, heedless of the way the rest of the party are carefully staying to the sides. Suddenly, the floor vanishes beneath his feet, revealing a 15'x15' opening in the middle of the floor. Fortunately, he does not plummet to the area below, but instead gently floats down to where two smaller versions of the monster centipede are waiting for him.
Bardos has fallen into a large, two-tiered chamber. He falls slowly enough to keep his footing as he descends to the lower level. There are two doors on the upper level of the room, which is far larger than the opening he came through.
Andretta and BR-N3R quickly race into the observation room, but have nothing more to offer than "helpful" comments.
"Bardos! Look out!"
"Observing."
The two hatchlings quickly scurry down the walls of the pit, and move to flank the mystic.

Haer Kul will pull out a flask of alchemist' fire as he walks to the edge of the ledge, and throws it at the nearest Tauslek. "Bombs away. Apologies Mr. Bardos if I get any on you."
Haer Kul throws his alchemists' fire into the corner of the pit, where it burns merrily.
BR-N3R adds, "Observation: force wall inactive."
Petronicus moves forward and shoots his crossbow at the nearest hatchling.
Bardos steps between the fire and the hatchling, drawing his morningstar. He swings at the creature:
Luck seems to be on the side of the hatchlings.
"Follow me!" Yells Slick, and leaps off the edge towards the Tauslek nearest Bardos, katana-first, in a dive bomb attack.
Slick yells and jumps off the edge, only to drift gently down to the floor. His attack is badly mis-timed as a result.
