[GRIM TALES] Wulf Ratbane's SLAVELORDS of CYDONIA

[Wulf Ratbane]

Just because I forgot to mention the temple decor in there doesn't mean that Haskins or Hambrick didn't notice it.

Nor does it mean that they are obligated to mention it...

"So, we go the other way now, right?"

 

[Old One]

Brigitta

The thought of snakes wriggling about doesn't sit very well with Brigitta. At Joshua's second prod, she agrees:

"Right you are, Mr. Hambrick...we shall follow your lead."

OOC: Heh! Prod Prod, Emphatic Prod!!!!

Joshua will continue to lead the way back to and up the north passage.

Here is another survival check if needed.
Survival - North passage (1d20+7=11)

 

[Wulf Ratbane]

Joshua led the group back up the north passage.

They passed a short side passage that opened into a side room, but the trail led north, so Joshua followed. After about 60 feet he and Haskins entered at the top of a small amphitheater: a ring of stone steps that led down to a stage or pit, now filled with debris and brackish water, very much like the pool where they had first encountered the big lizard.

Brigitta held up her lantern to better inspect the side room. Piles of junk and debris littered the floor, and two smaller cells with rusted, pitted metal doors adjoined the room. A narrow passage sloped downwards to the north, quickly filling with water.

"Perhaps this little passage connects to your flooded theatre?" Brigitta suggested.

"Aye, it may Ms. Nielson, but let's scout out this room a bit first. I think we may all feel a bit safer having inspected that pool down there before turing our backs to it."

 

[nakia]

Teddy remembers that what lurked in the last pool almost bit him in half. This pool is even bigger and he's still a little weakened from the blood loss.

He reloads his shotgun.

"Let's check it out."

He'll move closer to the ampitheatre entrance, not getting too far from Brigitta.

OOC: I think Teddy better look out for any airplane propellers

Teddy Carlyle's Maxims #41: Never turn your back on a flying wing.

 

[BryonD]

Joshua will move down a step and search for any new or continued trails or signs of passage.

Survivial - checking at top of amphitheater (1d20+7=8)
And fails to notice anything at all.

Brigitta

Brigitta nods to Teddy and continues forward towards Haskins and Hambrick, nervously chewing on a strand of dark hair...

'Cells?' She thinks to herself. 'I wonder what the cells were for...sacrificial victims, perhaps?'

A small knot of unreasoning dread begins twisting in her gut. She feels very certain something even more unpleasent than the giant reptile lies not too far ahead. She carefully scans the passageway as she advances.

[OOC: She will "take 10" to search the area around Haskins/Hambrick once she closes.]
