[QUOTE="BoldItalic, post: 7177164, member: 6777052"] [COLOR=blue]Tippy was saddened to see Claude go. He could summon a new familiar, of course, but it wouldn't be the same - they had been through a lot together. Besides, Claude still had his boomerang. A thought occured to him, and he got out his divining sticks. "Goat," he called, "Have you got a copy of the [I]I Ching[/I] with you?" "Sure, boss, what do you want me to look up?" Tippy tossed the ivory sticks, while GlibbleFleep looked on with interest. He had never seen this before. As far as he knew, ivory sticks were used for stirring potions; throwing them haphazardly on the ground made no sense. "Fire above the Lake. Number 38, with a moving first line", announced Tippy. "Well, that's pretty clear," remarked Tasha. "Flongle?" "It means," explained Tippy, "That if I do my own thing, my boomerang will come back. This is good advice. I shall follow it. Now, our first priority is to get help for Alber't'ickle. Next, we need to get out of the Underdark and back to our own world. After that, we will be in a position to defeat the evil foursome. Then we can go home." "Trow quog. Arble weeble smj?" ("Sounds fun. Can I come too?") "Of course. Welcome aboard. Do you need to bring anything with you?" "Ingle na nyj narwhal horn." "Good. Let's be going then. I see a path through the Koa-Toa village leading to a rough-hewn gate made of driftwood and kelp. To the left of the gate there is a table with a small wooden box on it, containing 3cp and a large brass key. GlibbleFleep, I'd like you take those, please. Now, let's see where the gate leads, shall we?" While Tippy was being leaderful and decisive, far above their heads the dancing chamber began slowly to descend its tunnel again, in a roar of flames ...
