"Well now, let's be on with it," Alterius says grabbing his things after breakfast. "The dungeon isn't going to clear itself. We have a red lantern to put to use."

"Check the rooms. There may be more lost souls to bring back to Pelor's light," Zeke says, although admittedly finding some extra coin might be nice too.

ooc: Where's my post?
The group brings out one more poor soul from the very first level they explored of the Whispering Cairn. The body of the adventurer who was crushed by the stone block trap is put to rest and then they all meet once more in the lantern room.
After using all the extra oil flasks that Gaylne purchased months before they soon have all the lanterns lit and the room full of a rainbow light. As it reflects off the ceiling and bounds about the room a sort of peace comes over everyone as they know they must b on the rigth track to stop the nightmares from the night before.
It takes some time for everyone to climb up to the tunnel with the stone face but soon they are all standing before the cracked open door revealed by lighting all the lanterns. Beyond the door is the strangest of chamber they have seen yet.
The far end of the room can currently not be seen from the doorway.

Aria looks at the strange hexagonal walls warily, then peers down at the ocean of spheres below. Something about this set up tickles her.
"It almost looks like..." She waves a hand at the walls, "Like those bee cells in the walls might launch these balls at anyone trying to cross, knocking them off and then falling onto the floor below there. But then, if that's how it works, I wonder what happens to the people that fall. We should throw something in. Maybe there's monsters down there or something."

"I sincerely doubt there is anything at all alive down there," Alterius says with a woeful glance downward. "And I imagine you are correct about there being some sort of trapped mechanism that harries those who attempt to cross. Perhaps if we added a bit more light on the subject."
Alterius intones a soothing melody, a hymn to the goddess of the oerth as he pulls out a copper coin and a pale blue light begins to glow from it. He then incants a charming song, beckoning a servant of the oerth to come forward and assist him. The unseen servant grasps the coin and carries it forward across the beam to the end. Alterius whispers a silent prayer of thanks to the Oerth Mother for her assistance.
