I feel the same, really.

Are you sure you can interface with it directly?
Amadeus stands up walks over to the laughing Nasir, and places his hand on his former rival's chest. You know, you have a point about narratives. he then gently pushes Nasir back into the rest of the group. However, from the get-go I've felt a weird sense of serendipity here. I killed the individual worms in fire it only seems fitting that I help put the mass of them down in an explosion. Get out of here, you guys. With that he turns around and sits at the console.
Amadeus looks about, on the off chance that he could contribute.
Barring that, all I can think of is lots and lots of fire.
Amadeus will continue stomping about the individual worms, making sure they burn til they stop moving before moving on to the next group.
You three focus on helping Callidus! I've got these ones! Amadeus hurries over to where some of the worms are wriggling about, and if it's not still active reactivates his firey aura, hoping to burn them before they can reassemble.
Wherever is good. Keep alert.
Given how aggressive the ones we found are, you're probably right. If they weren't somehow suspended they'd probably be running around again. We need to find a way to completely destroy them.
Amadeus goes quickly after Boregal.
Amadeus will bring up the rear.
Into the saferoom, then. We shouldn't stand in front of it. I'll go last. Inside! Since he's on fire now, Amadeus will stay out until everyone is in the room.
Amadeus readies his sword and shield and activates his fire.
Amadeus shrugs and sighs, clearly unhappy but unable to argue. Yeah, you're right. Quickly, then.
We need to get her back to the surface. Now.
Do it. There's no time.
Amadeus has a rod that can enable long-range communication and a temporary force field generator.
Amadeus stands immobile. Thoughts racing. Ok, what to do. We can't let her outside, that's inarguable. Is there a way to cure her? Maybe we could kill it without harming her. Fire is too damaging to herself. Electricity as well. Blades, spears, maybe bludgeoning? I'll come back to that. GOT IT! Listen to me, miss. We're going to get you out of here, but there's somethign else we have to take care of first, ok? Balon, Callidus! Can you try to see if you can sense its' thoughts? Maybe you can fry it's nervous system without harming her!
I'm not gonna hold it against you if you take off. Teleporting houses are fascinating. That being said, I think this is something that requires our utmost attention at this time.
Well, if you were a world-destroying monstrosity from beyond the stars, how would you get around?
Amadeus whispers to Balon I don't suppose you can verify that somehow? We don't know what these things can do.
Ah, the bardic knock spell.
Amadeus nods gravely. I'll take point. Callidus you're behind me to help with seeing things. Hound, you're in the middle. Then Balon, Galahad you're in the back. If you see any don't hold back, we don't leave until they're either jelly or crispy, got it?
Amadeus winces, not used to telepathy aside from Balon. Do you think it has anything to do with these little critters?
That's unsettling. There are bound to be more around, and they must have come from something. I think we ought to try and find and destroy the others.
Amadeus will go and step on the one that attacked him, igniting his fire while he has it pinned.
Minus 2 speed.
We came down here to find the missing people. I don't know if this is who we were sent to find, but we need to get him out of here. Na..... drit. No, we can't. What if it follows us back to the surface? We can't have it unleashed on the village. This is terribly unsettling. We need to find a way to seal the furnace back up as well, but one thing at a time.
Amadeus runs forward any catches up to Callidus. While he attends to the wounded man, Aadeus will stay alert for any sign of the attacker.
Well, that's either going to be exactly what we are looking for, or looking for us. Either way, let's go. Amadeus pulls out his weapon and moves after Callidus, staying a ways back but not letting him out of sight.
Didn't we just see some invisible thing nearly consume you? Let's try to avoid touching anything. This place is bigger than I anticipated, I wonder if there's a way to determine where they would have gone. We might be stumbling around blindly for days down here.
Maybe we should switch duties? You can bludgeon enemies while I sneak about?
Let's try a doorway.
Callidus, can you find a way to disable it? It seems unlikely that they'd be on the other side of an impenetrable wall, but a trapped door would make sense.
We can analyze it once we're out of it's reach. In the meantime let's get a move on. There are people down here somewhere. Amadeus will wait for the rest of the group to start following him, then lead the group toward the middle of the chamber, over the grid.
Ok, got access to my Player's Guide again. I'm going to spend 4 points to get intellect edge 1, and spend four points to get 4 points among stat pools. Thus, I now have one intellect edge, 18 might points and 14 speed points.
Amadeus pulls out his shield and reaches for his broadsword, he doesn't draw it though. We should move on.
Can't see much, but it's positively rank. The hound may want to sit this one out, I think his canine nose will be his undoing.
Of course. He does it. You know I loosened it for you, right? Completely lacking any more self-respect, Amadeus enters the structure.
Allow me. Amadeus leaps down to the entrance and scurries inside, prying it open for the others to get through.
What exactly did he tell you? Who is Nerr and why did he go inside?
And I'm a purple flutterby. Answer the question.
Ehehehe. That was glorious.
Amadeus cocks his head to the side and walks forward. What exactly are you hoping to get out of this? What numenera are you specifically hoping for?
I think that if we go to The Pit we'll definitely find answers, but if we chase down the cultists, we may waste a day not finding them or we may waste a day chasing down people who aren't doing anything. Even if it isn't a waste of time, I doubt we'll learn anything we couldn't learn in The Pit.
Indeed. There doesn't seem to be any further reason to delay. To the pit!
Balon, Yokam's been "training" and it seems he's been building up to something. He came home sweaty and exhausted with a pack several times. I think he's been doing something with the heat. What'd you find over there?
