The lord of the manor asks, "Is that all for now? I intend to retire after sending this message."

To me this seems like the natural way to manage the spell, as opposed to like a "map dungeon" button. Especially considering the eye only has normal vision and darkvision out to 30, thus limiting what it can actually notice in any given area.

There is a scroll of sending and a scroll of seeming on the table. There is also an open book with an illumination drawn on one side of each page and then a name written on the other side. A quick glance, you notice that the name appears to be written in a single specific language each time, and...

After unlocking the door the ancient stairs descends about 250 feet in flights of 20 to 30 feet. As might be expected of dwarven construction, the structure has stood the test of time. Other than a noticeably smooth, worn patch in the middle of each step, the ancient stairs remain in good...

The older lord scratches the dome of his head a bit and looks at you a bit embarrassed. "My brother, father, and grandfather were the... mages... of the family. I always had more of a talent with the axe. I'm afraid the guardians are artifacts of their days. My own son took after my talents, it...

"That would seem prudent. If you wish to use the rooms here, they are open to you. I'll see if I can figure out the old scrolls..."

That works fine.

After descending to the door you find your key and are able to unlock the door to the Temple of the Black Earth. The cavern continues downwards to the south and west from your current position. Let me know anything you want to do in preparation at this point, I'll have to prep the map and such.

The old fighter considers and replies, "I can send message to a friend in Gauntylgrm, but that will prevent me from sending a message today to Silverymoon. I don't know the Black Network's interests, but I presume they serve their own ends."

The lord is caught off guard in more ways that one and seems almost stunned as Bell rattles off her list of feats. "So are you following the fire giants? What are sky puppets? Are they Zhentarim? Sahaugin grave robbers torturing kobolds?"

There are three layers to each onion. An outpost (the sovereign stone monastery, riverguard keep, the wind knights tower deal you mostly cleared, and a place above the fire temple you never visited), a temple (air cleared, fire 90% cleared, water cleared, earth not touched), and an elemental...

"I am Harthos Zymorven, and I've had more than my fair share of encounters with giants in my past. My family has kept this keep, and for generations my family has served through a number of adventures. For myself, I am still quite fine." An invisibility spell drops from the lord, who is a...

You can do that. You have previously explored most of this temple, and most of the downstairs area. It seems the occupants have evacuated, leaving only a single sealed doorway leading down below. A doorway that requires a key. A key you acquired a long time ago on your journey.

When you arrive at the Sovereign Stone Monastery (I presume?) you find the place much as you had left it, though also clearly no upkeep or repairs have been enacted on the surface facility. Another tiny tremor can be felt if you pay acute attention.

As the group gets further into the building the suits of armor animate, move to the door furthest from you, and open it. You can see a warm room inside, a hearthfire already lit, and comfortable couches and chairs. A voice responds, emanating primarily from above, "I am the master of this keep...

Knocking on the door you hear no reply, but the door seems to click and opens inwardly into a hallway of a fairly nice entry room. Two suits of armor stand at the far end of the hallway with spears and shields in hand. Braziers on both sides of the hall illuminate the path with limited...

Perched atop a crag overlooking the Rauvin Road, with a clear view of the Evermoors to the south and the Moonwood to the north, is a keep of mortared stone with a high-pitched roof that has wooden statues of baying wolves rising from its peaks. A branch in the road winds up to the keep's...

You are able to rest, however, you do take notice of very slight tremors every hour or so. Enough to wake those sleeping not too deeply, but not enough to interfere with a long rest.

The town of Rivermoot is protected by a palisade on it's eastern side. All of the buildings in this town are raised at least ten feet in case of flooding, and various rafts and boats seem to be tethered about. The locals seem a bit unkempt, but they report no interactions with giants, trolls...
