"Seems like you won the argument," Kerwyn says with a grin. "Did you settle the matter permanently, or is the messenger going to come and try to sway you to its point of view at a later time? And what is this message you mentioned? A prophecy of the Herald's?"
Kerwyn offers his chatting partner a swig from his waterskin.

"Well, we agreed to disagree. Until you destroyed it a few moments ago.
"Thank you.
"The message? You need to listen quietly. Reach out with your mind. You can almost hear the whispers, bubbling at the edge of your subconscious.
"This place is meant to allow you to hear the message, if you can.
"This place predates the prophesy of the coming Champion who Heralds the Doom of all things, so the message does not concern the Champion."

"We have a bit of a conundrum here. In order to get the second platform back up to the top of the black rock, I wouldn't be able to watch out for the veins. So, I'm open for suggestions. I could try to just climb down the rope to the bottom, then winch the platform back up, assuming Kerwyn doesn't need help right away. Or we could do something else," Craven says.

The insane cultist tells Dalamar, "I am always available to counsel the young, but for now, I must return to my communing with the Dark Lord."
The cultist goes back around to the other side of the obelisk, out of sight of the elevator, kneels on the floor, closes his eyes, slows down his breathing, and holds his palms outstretched as if he is trying to catch something.
Dalamar, after watching the cultist for a moment, goes back up the elevator, tells the party what he found, and brings the party back down with him to the bottom of the obelisk. Going down to the bottom are: Craven, Dalamar, Lenya?, Lylamwyn?, Toriah (and anyone else who wants to go down). Staying at the top are: Neshi and the Black Cat (both of whom dislike cold) (and anyone else who wants stay at the top).

Lenya
Lenya heads down with the others, maybe her enhanced senses could be of value, when exploring the cavern. She makes sure, that she visibly wears one of those amulets the group took from the cultists, but leaves most of her other equipment above, carrying only what weighs little to nothing.
She is particularily careful not to touch the veins again.

Craven raises an eyebrow, but says nothing. "So, what else is down here?" he asks.
