I will give Forge the chance to wake the elf up.

In addition to the campsite, obelisk, cliff, column and rope bridges, trees...you see indications of the stream, and the water noise is coming from the northeast. But the structure gets most of your attention, now that you are no longer struggling for life (or at least to stay awake):

A building ofstrange curves, bends, and angles stands on stiltlike columns, over fifty feet above the ground and the rushing river. Rope bridges extend outward to connect the top of the cliff face, but the only access from ground level is a wide spiral staircase near the banks of the river.

In addition, you can continue north east out of the clearing under the rope bridge.

Monologue

What do you think?

I didn't say that, but who knows? Clearly, there's something.

Maybe the dwarf and the others have some idea. Should we ask them?

I woundn't want to presume...

<long pause>

You do have the most amazing ideas, my love.

Yours are still more lovely than any trifle I can manage.

No yelling, slapping, shaking, water??

At some point everyone is awake.

The stairs spiral right up into the odd building and lie at the edge of the small river. (you can sort of see this on the map).

Lucian could always choose to examine them. He remains the least likely to notice something...but he can examine them.

Internal Struggles

Ghen seems to be straining for something. Shayera appears and disappears next to him. His face seems to blur as if his features are invisible but his body isn't. Shayera, his face, and various aspects of his body seem to have a radiant flickering, as if he himself is a holy candle with an unsteady quality to it.

After a time, Ghen seems to become himself, puts his arm around Shayera, and they walk together to the building to examine it.

Lucien quietly watches Ghen's flickering performance art. As the pair walks away the words "Hmph, and people say I'm barmy" can be heard on the wind.

Nar-Heru wakes up, witnesses Ghen's "experience" and almost goes back to sleep. He forces himself up, thanking Forge. "What happened? Did I get it?" Nar-Heru dusts off his robes and gathers himself. "We can send Spark up the stairs, and he can tell us what he sees."

OOC: I don't see a 7 on the map, are the stairs the gray curve around the river and the building at 5? Or is 5 just a tower supporting rope bridges and the gray squares over the river represent both the spiral stairs and the building?

Never Give Up

Ghen pauses after his examination of the structure, embraces Shayera, and crackles with a rumbling electricity. It spikes out in all directions from them. For a brief moment, Ghen seems to sprout wings to match Shayera's, then they fade as quickly as they came.

A smile appears on Ghen's face, and he moves to the structure, looking for a foothold to climb up.
