Constables of the 14th Ward

[Scotley]

Wally replies in a petulant tone, "Pet, familiar, companion, whatever you call it, I intended no insult, but I'm getting a little frustrated with you lot. What's all that bowing and scraping nonsense? What does that funny writing say? If you can summon up demons and order them about then why are we farting around with this door. Have one come and rip it off the wall and be done with it. You aren't paying me enough to make a decent pension, and I'm growing older by the minute."

Moru Sen, human conjurer

"You aren't paying me enough to make a decent pension, and I'm growing older by the minute."

"I'm sure we could find a way to keep you from getting any older if you like," Moru says with a cold smile as he waits to hear what the others think of his suggestion.

"I'm sure we could find a way to keep you from getting any older if you like," Moru says with a cold smile as he waits to hear what the others think of his suggestion.

"Hey, pipsqueak! Threats aren't part of the deal, either! How about if I just continue on and leave you fellows here to find your own way to the halfling?" says Wally, whose nerves appear to be fraying before your very eyes.

 

[Leif]

Wally Alphonsus, again

Wally says, "Gee, those markings on that door look almost like writing of some kind. I wonder what it would say if it was writing?"

 

[xedr]

Darius gudgingly agrees with Wally [highlight]"It does look like it might be writing, but I can't make heads or tails of it. (To Moru) I don't understand what you mean, but I'll bow if you say so. (To Alarion) Maybe we should explore a bit to see if we can find a hidden door to that control room"[/highlight]

 

[Lou]

Raul at the big doors 2

Not seeing anyone coming down the passageway, Raul will begin searching for any secreted openings on the wall opposite the big doors. It just looks like a wall to Raul.

[Leif]

OOC: I guess it's JUST ANOTHER BRICK IN THE RAUL.

Moru Sen, human conjurer

Wally says, "Gee, those markings on that door look almost like writing of some kind. I wonder what it would say if it was writing?"

"Of course it's writing," Moru says with a huff. Then he stops even as he draws a breath to say more. He glances to Thea, then blushes at failing to translate the script for his fellows.

"It says 'Make obeisance to Meda.' That's why Thea and I were ... you know ... with the bows and suchlike."

 

[Scotley]

A bit of poking around opposite the doors reveals no hidden door. Retbi's description of the stairs suggests that the door he saw was some distance from the wall on which you are looking.

 

[Helfdan]

Alarion of Tovarre

"May Morwyn and all of the Gods of the Tree, as well as Barcarus and Meda have mercy on me... but by my Troth, I am almost ready to agree with this varlet." Alarion shakes his head in amusement as he gestures at Wally. "We ARE, as he quoth, 'farting around'... as I assume he means we are wasting time, and he is not speaking of intestinal maladies. If neither master Rahvin, master Moru, nor lady Thea can find evidence of harmful sorcerous wards on the doorway, we should attempt to force it... perhaps whilst invoking Meda's name?"
