The unseen piper is actually quite good. As Aodhán speaks the volume swells enough that everyone can hear it; the sad tune stirs each of you somewhat to melancholy.

Keeland recognizes the tune. It's part of an epic piece composed some 800 years ago. The song has the usual components of such: star crossed lovers, heroic quests, etc.
 

Tsadok

OOC - Sorry I'm so late in posting.

IC - Tsadok follows the group...not really wanting to lead, he happily follows whomever chooses to lead. Being ever mindful of potential traps and surprises.

BTW - Tsadok watches with admiration as Houwlou dissected out the venom gland. Very impressive indeed.

Houwlou Groulenas - Male Olcán Ranger 2

"If some cat's show up I'll trust to your own canine instincts to deal with them" Aodhán jests as he prepares to take the lead this time.
"Rowr," says the Olcán as he follows Aodhán closely.
The unseen piper is actually quite good. As Aodhán speaks the volume swells enough that everyone can hear it; the sad tune stirs each of you somewhat to melancholy.
"How about that! A dungeon with live theme music! Maybe we should hire this piper to always accompany us on our travels?"
 

"He is quite good, an old piece, but I have heard it." Keeland steps a little closer to shed some light on the statue and sings a couple of verses in accompaniment with the piper to give his companions a sense of the story.
 

As Keeland strides boldly into the room ahead the music fades from hearing. The light shining forth from Tempest illuminates a scene depicting Nethys (the God of Magic) and his Herald, the cloud-like being known as Arcanotheign.

At Nethys' mighty command, legions of elementals build entire cities, raging seas calm, and enemies are brought to accord. Four falcon-headed statues guard a chamber to the west. Between them, a broad flagstone cants up into the air, a trapdoor no longer secret.

OOC: Assumed you'd all want to go on in - let me know if I'm mistaken and you wish your peeps placed elsewhere . . .

Houwlou Groulenas - Male Olcán Ranger 3

Gingerly stepping over the formerly concealed trap door, Houwlou looks around the room curiously. "Catchy tune! Keep it up, and I might just give you a tip."

Humming a few more bars, Keeland examines the scenes in more detail and then suggests, "We should check out the other chamber next door before taking the trap door."
