CLOSED! Rhun's Greyhawk OMEGA Game (ToEE)

Sir Merrick nods his thanks to the champion, still covered in his own blood but a bit steadier on his wobbly feet now. "I agree. We have killed two of their strong attack beasts and they will be in confusion for a time when they discover our works here. If we engage in another battle now the Prophet would not be able to save another of us as he did the champion. The smell of burning flesh will draw them, we should leave now."

Aeron, doing his utmost to keep his stomach contents down, can do little other than nod in response. The cleric waits for the others to go before him once again.
 

Jinx casts a last lingering look around, partially regretting leaving mid-exploration. In recognition of the limited healing left to the group, the gnome says nothing but nods and trundles after Sir Merrick and Aeron back toward the surface.
 

"Oi! Half a moment!" Jinx calls out, the quickly darts back to the troll's corpse. Blinking away tears induced by the fetid smell and still-smoking body, Jinx casts a searching eye over the dead creature, hunting for clues or perhaps a key. Anything of interest, really, that may prove of future value getting back down to or beyond this location.

Search +4.
 


Having finished retrieving his dagger and pointing out the burnt marks which didn't heal, Deren quickly steps back as the smell of burnt flesh fills the air. His mouth feels bile and his stomach lurches, but he moves away quickly and just a few steps into the passage where he attempts to calm down his stomach by breathing in the nearby 'fresh' air.

After he recovers, he turns to the others. "I think we should leave this area or prepare for defense before the smell draws others."
 

Zirat

I suggest we leave to the upper floor, rest and lay an ambush to the brigands, should they decide to return.
We that the champion decided to lead the way, now that Sir Merrick is severely wounded.

Jinx walks alongside Sir Merrick, following the others back up to the main temple floor. "C'mon, Sir Merrick. I saw a fine old side room up off the temple sanctuary proper. We can rest there, til we come up with a better lay of the land and perhaps a more wholesome place to camp for the night. Brother Aeron?" Jinx turns to the Last Prophet. "Surely you, of all us, can least fathom spending an evening encamped inside this abomination of a building? I myself should prefer the dangers of the wood outdoors to sleeping in this ill-natured temple. But we can at the least make for the sanctuary, and from there decide where else we might wish to head."

The gnome pointedly makes upward, for the sanctuary.

Rhun, we're going back up to the main floor of the temple to gather our wits and rest just a bit. After that, I don't know whether the group will want to stay in the temple for the night (Jinx doesn't want to do that but will go along with the majority will of the group) or go somewhere else to sleep/rest.
 


Jinx searches the corpse of the troll, but finds nothing other than the battered leather harness that the troll wears to maintain some semblance of modesty.

Shoon looks down the southern passage, and it appears as if the corridor splits both east and west a bit further on. All is quiet and dark in that direction.

Although you cannot detect any signs of forthcoming resistance or reinforcements, you decide to withdraw to the Temple Proper to rest a bit. So, you follow the steps that brought you here and once again return above ground.

Also, you did get most of a night's rest, and your spellcasters haven't studied their spells again...I would be willing to be generous and say they could all regain their spells after an hour of study, if you would like to press on.
