Vlad and Fiddle battled the elementals with their weapons. A few agonizing but brief moments later the elementals vanished. Conversation had to be louder near the vortex."Now what?" Alya again asked. "Do we battle the golem?""For one of the longest lived races you sure are impatient," Darian noted.Fiddle found another secret door back down the corridor. "And not as observant as the rest of your kind.""She's a lover not a fighter," Vlad quipped."I did not sleep with the whole garrison at Castle Krag," Alya defended herself. "None of you know what I did.""Come now lets try this new door," Sully broke the tension.Everyone's ears popped at the pressure equalized. There was a distinct roar coming from the new corridor. The tunnel abruptly ended. Fiddle found yet another door. Again the pressure equalized. The din grew. Even the vortex wasn't this loud. Another dead end. Fiddle found another door. This opened into a hurricane. The platform around the door was stable, but just a few inches away the wind begged for something to carry. Darian obliged. He tossed a stone. It was gone faster than the thought could register. Across the gap was a stairway leading into a chamber. The light didn't go far enough."What do we do now?" Alya yelled. No one heard her.Sully pulled a scroll from his pouch. One they had found in the tomb. It had a very powerful spell. He may or may not be able to cast it. He mimed his actions and intent. The party gathered round."I'm not going over there," Fiddle declared. "Unless we know we have a way back.""I agree," Sully nodded. "I think I can cast this Dimensional Door, but it is a one way trip.""Darian," Alya suggested, "why don't you ask Lathander."Darian bent and prayed. "Weal," he called out moments later. "I'll go alone if you don't want to risk it.""We are in this together," Sully looked around. "But I will feel the fool if we don't make it back.""How much does everyone weigh?" Fiddle asked. "I need to know how much food I'll have if it comes to that. Sully I'll kill you last." <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" />  (Come on the Commando reference had to come in eventually)Blink They stood  in the chamber. Everyone was slightly disoriented almost nauseous. An invisible hand struck Vlad with such force he nearly doubled over. Fiddle attacked the air. He stepped backwards and froze in place on the stairway. The stairs were coated in some very powerful sticky substance. The noise in the chamber was not too strong.Sully tossed a handful of powder up and mumbled an arcane phrase. A thing appeared. It wasn't human or even real, but it was visible. It took the form of now visible stalker. The party went to work. Alya sang.  Darian and Vlad activated their weapons. The creature attacked Sully. Fiddle undid his shoes and tumbled into combat. Sully ducked aside and cast another glittery handful of dust. The creature froze. One, two, one, two, the party laid into the thing. Sully hit it with a ball of lightning that would've knocked its socks off. (34 out of 36) It vanished to its home plane.All the casters detected for magic. The hurricane was of course very magical. So were a lot of other things...</blockquote>
