Last Stand of the Dorinthians (Chapter 4- The Second Invasion)

Nikolos looks over the items, and then looks at Barok, then the rest of the group, especially Ventus and Silas. "Well, this place does have some fascinating aspects to it. Legendary beast of apocalyptic destruction aside, that is. We may have a magic ring, here. Or at the least a fairly valuable one."

Danica makes a loop with her thumb and forefinger, and lifts it up to her eye. She turns to the ring, and concentrates, saying "Show me your nature." to see if the familiar glow of magic eminates from anywhere in this hidden compartment.
 

Conn puts the crystal in his pack then hefting his axe he walks over to the entrance of the tunnel on the farside of the room to see whats down there.
 

As Danica looks over the items, the rest of the party looks down the circular corridor. It is rather large (about 18 feet in diameter) and may be possible to walk down, though there is a good chance one might lose their balance and slide down the smoothed surface. The degradation is sharp, and you estimate somewhere within a 30% angle. The tunnel goes on for more than 150 feet before stopping in another chamber, but you are unable to see what may be inside due to the limits of your vision as well as the angle of the tunnel.

As you cast your spell, you find that the ring radiates with a moderate transmutation. You also sense that the ring involves the water element, but past that you cannot discern its purpose at this time. Further experimentation or examination may prove helpful at a later time.

Strangely, you also detect magic from the small garnet, and as you twirl it in your hands you realize that the different facets have small, magical letters on the surface that seem to broaden before your eyes as you focus upon them. No one else seems to notice them except you, as your eyes are sensitive to magic at the moment. You have the sense that if you cast read magic upon the gem that you would find this to be a small spellbook! Surely these winged elves could do amazing things with crystals and gems. Perhaps this is not very useful to a sorceress, but it is still a valuable find.

Caramip Ashhearth

OOC: Is there another tunnel(s) leading further down into the mountain?


I am no Investigator, but” Pipes the musical Gnome, “Would it be safe to say that those ‘insect’ warriors may still remain?” Says Caramip as she looks into down tunnel that is leading deeper into the mountain.
 


Silas shrugs. "I can't see how they would have survived down here for so long but I wouldn't discount it. The problem is, we just don't know what we're dealing with here. Though I think these carvings and what you all have seen in the crystal is a good start." He shoots Conn a quick glaring glance before masking his irritation that the big lug, for all he knows, destroyed the information in the crystal.

"We should proceed with caution." So saying, he (again) gives Conn a look then moves towards the hall that spirals down...
 

Before proceeding deeper Barok brings the horses into the cavern and buries the gear he will not bring with him a bit away from the camp.
