Legacy of Death Part IV: Darker than the Absence of Light

A closer look is taken. Carefully, so as not to fall in to anything.

As Lucian may have missed before...

Speaking of wake-up-something about the face looks different

Let me know what you are doing, and please do something

Nar-Heru ask the Hand of Fate his 3rd question: "How do we open the Devil's eyes?"

TerraDave · Apr 18, 2012

The blue hand floats over an eye, makes a fist, and hits it a few times.

It then vanishes.

"That's my cue!" Forge give the devil a wack in the eye.

TerraDave · Apr 18, 2012

The stone is quite hard, and it may take a few whacks (edit, yes, the attack above just missed...I'll just assume he tries again). Forge also gets some eldritch backlash (damage as rolled).

However, with those whacks, the outer stone cracks, and beneath it is the carved eye with pupil as on the devil face back in the first tomb!

Then you realize (with all the high perception scores standing about) the dark sphere in the mouth seems to vanish!

But.....almost as soon as the eye is revealed, the outer stone starts to grow back!

Let's try this again Lucien. Forge throws a rope to Lucien and ties his end around his waist hoping the theif remembers their latest experience on the bridges of Moil. Before the eye closes, the dwarf leaps into the closing maw!

(the thing closes in just a round)

Forge, you tie the rope and throw it, then leap (two moves and a minor...if I was to nitpick...). Fortunately, you manage to straddle the maw as the eye closes and the dark sphere returns.

Forge straps his shield to his back pulls and lights a torch and wails on the eye again, hoping for it to open so he can drop the torch down the hole.
