Quinoline chucks a bottle of sparking stuff at Jamimpi. It misses by a hair but Jamimpi flinches at the splash. She tries again with another bottle of sparky stuff but this one misses by a mile. ().
Lydia dashes into a flank with Jamimpi and attempts to poke her but fails on both attempts.
Astrid shouts a battle cry at Jamimpi which does rattle her. Both strikes, however, don't connect.
Jamimpi moves away from the crush of Pathfinders to a safe distance and unleashes a spell.
|
|
Jamimpi moves to get clear of the Pathfinders. Orin and Astrid take advantage of this and lash out. Unfortunately for her, Astrid strikes her and completely stops her right in her tracks. With a scream of pain, Jamimpi manages to focus enough to heal herself.

Jamimpi yelps at the slight headache that Quinoline gives her. She then screams as the attacks of Rex and Orin also find their marks.

Lydia strides over to gang up on the naga and attempts to slice twice with her jagged swords.

Crystal manages to also take a swipe at Jamimpi as she tries to move out of the way. Successfully gaining panache from a parkour move, she then pokes Jamimpi successfully before raising her buckler.
Astrid charges and tries to end the fight but only hits with her second blow. Lydia wades in and adds additional damage to the already beleaguered naga.
Jamimpi manages to step away before casting a spell. Unfortunately she leaves herself open to Orin, who immediately slams her in someplace vital. "ENOUGH!! ENOUGH!! I YIELD!!" she shrieks, and surrenders.
"You have no idea what you've gotten yourselves into! I tried to stop you, but you only have yourselves to blame after this!"
As you take some time to heal yourselves, you hear what sounds like laughing kiddos from a cottage to the north.
|
"Hold on a minute Orin. Gimme a chance to catch my breath and repair Draugakrossari."
Astrid pulls out her repair kit and begins hammering away at her shield as her wounds slowly close.
She bangs away with more enthusiasm than skill but eventually manages to fully repair her shield. She smiles in satisfaction and puts her tools away. She winces in pain as she dons her backpack. "Shield's good as new. Can't quite say the same for myself though. Hey Quin! I don't suppose you have an elixir or two you could spare?"
|
|
You head to the cottage and you see a bunch of kiddos playing outside. "Are you friends of Csilla? We're waiting for her come home again so we can play!"
Orin moves up and opens the door with his shield in front of him.
This quaint cottage is simply yet cozily furnished with a small table, potbelly stove, and large bed with a trundle sticking out from underneath. Neatly folded on the trundle is a handmade quilt. While threadbare, it appears to be well cared for. More conspicuously, the wall next to the desk is giving off a faint glow in the shape of a door.
You notice that the quilt has something nestled inside it. Retrieving the item, you find a simple, scrap leather-bound journal with a stylized butterfly on its cover. The journal’s cover bears no title, but the inside cover is replete with a galaxy of stars, a single solitary constellation definable among them.
DC 24 Perception:
Every wall of the house starts to shimmer. A stone doorway appears where the lone glowing patch was, filled with a vast black sea of stars.
|
|
"Yes, we're friends of Csilla and I'm sure she'll be able to play again soon" Lydia offers, not sure what to say to the children and not fully trusting them.
Lydia looks around the cottage and finds a hidden compartment, "I don't suppose we can take this out of the mindscape?" Lydia smirks holding up a +2 Greater Striking Frost Starknife for anyone to take.
|
"Nicely done Astrid, if you ever want some Dwarven pointers, I'm happy to show you." notes Orin as he repairs his shield as well.
Orin looks around, not particularly interested in the starknife but does take more interest in the journal.
"This constellation mean anything to anybody?" as he holds up the scrap leather-bound journal with a stylized butterfly on its cover and no title. Opening it to show the inside cover that is replete with a galaxy of stars, a single solitary constellation definable among them.

|
"Yes, we're friends of Csilla and I'm sure she'll be able to play again soon" Lydia offers, not sure what to say to the children and not fully trusting them.
"Have you seen anyone go into this cottage?" Quinoline asks, before the Pathfinders head in.
---
Quinoline tries to identify the constellation.
|
|
"Nicely done Astrid, if you ever want some Dwarven pointers, I'm happy to show you." notes Orin as he repairs his shield as well.
Astrid shrugs. "Papa tried to teach me a bit of smithing. Some of his lessons stuck but I never really took to it. It's much more fun to break shields than to repair them."
"This constellation mean anything to anybody?" as he holds up the scrap leather-bound journal with a stylized butterfly on its cover and no title. Opening it to show the inside cover that is replete with a galaxy of stars, a single solitary constellation definable among them.
Astrid gives the constellation a cursory glance as she moves to investigate the far more interesting glowing wall. "It looks like a door." She gives the 'door' a slight shove. The walls of the house begin to shimmer and a stone doorway appears where the lone glowing patch was, filled with a vast black sea of stars. The shield maiden nods in satisfaction. "Definitely a door."
|
|
The stone door stands behind you, alone in an endless black abyss. Before you, tall granite walls stretch for miles in both directions and into the empty sky. The only break in them is in front of you, a hallway into the unknown. A copper sign is nailed into the stone on the right of the opening, its words seeming to shift between languages. The letters rearrange themselves into Taldane: “The Maze of the Mind is forbidden. No one who enters will live to see the end.” Everything is blanketed in an eerie silence.
CS: The labyrinth’s ire is substantially dulled. It will not attack in the next two exploration periods, a total of 20 minutes, and its damage will not increase for that time.
S: You have dulled the labyrinth’s ire. It will not attack during the next exploration period, around 10 minutes of time, and its damage will not increase for that time.
F: You do not calm the labyrinth.
CF: You immediately draw the labyrinth’s ire towards you and your allies. It attacks again as if 10 minutes had passed.

WHISPERING WALLS
The stone walls are covered in ivy, deepening the labyrinth’s disorienting secrets. From within the ivy, whispers emerge. The voices sound similar to various individuals lost by those present, but they are not clear enough to discern any meaning. All paths appear the same, their identical nature making navigation especially difficult.

Crystal soothes the maze, appeasing its anger and convincing it to leave the Pathfinders in peace.
Orin finds a path through the maze .
Quinoline lobs a firecracker down the maze and introducing some festivities to the normally somber environment.
