There is no noticeable wind.OOC: This is move 4b for novyet, 5b for perivas and Richard.  Move 6 will (hopefully) be posted tomorrow night, but that really depends on the feasibility of getting a quick response to this from everyone.  So, we'll deal with it when we get there...<img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />Yanis Princetonson, Approximately 0915 hoursYou examine the item thoroughly.  Unfortunately, the item is too rare and unusual for you to get a grasp on how much it is worth.[Appraise Check, Untrained: (Roll 16 on d20) + (Int -1) = 15]  The runes themselves are tiny, but you manage to make a fairly good copy of them on a cloth napkin nearby.  The script is clearly ancient, and consists of many curved lines arranged in different groupings, meeting at different points in a seemingly random fashion.As you hand back the item to Karok, he considers your questions.  "As near as I could tell, the house I found it in was abandoned.  I mean, it was clear that not a soul was living there, leastways as far as cleanliness and upkeep were concerned.  In all truth, the place is a pit.  I was walking around a night or so ago after mining, and I was bored, wandered into the house completely and purely by accident, I mean, I'm sure you know how things just tend to happen to me," he grins apologetically as he takes a breath.  "To be right honest, I don't know anything about the house, except for the fact that some of the others round parts say that it's best left alone."Ezra Geonora, Approximately 1220 hoursThe priestess in white comes over at your beckon and looks carefully at the panel.  She shakes her head.  "I'm really not sure that the glass is...moving, my Son."  She hesitates on the word, and then suddenly flinches.  "If you are certain, however, I've no reason to doubt you."  She motions for the twins to come over.Masathael and Isannhen look carefully at the panel, each with his head cocked off to one side as if looking at it from an angle would better serve his purpose.  Resolutely, they come to their conclusions.  "It is moving."  "Are you certain?  I don't see any motion."  Not much more helpful than the priestess to be sure.  Isannhen (you think it's Isannhen) volunteers taking the panel down, however — as he says, "If you're certain there's something back there, it can't hurt to take it down and put it up again.  After all, my brother seems to see it, too, and we can't have anything infringing on the splendor of Boranthel's glasswork.  We could do it quite quickly if you'd like to assist..."  He trails off, waiting for your response.Oskar Dankil, Approximately 1415 hours, Combat: Rnd 2As you tend to your crossbow, the rat-thing scuttles up the rest of the wall until he reaches the top, at which point you see him brace himself for the descent down the other side.[You remain 25 ft. away from the wall, the rat is now approximately 10 ft. higher on the wall.]</blockquote>
