Le Carinval

[luciddarkchild]

After a brief jaunt thought the woods, Alastar stops suddenly at the edge of a lake. Looking vary confused he manages to stammer out, "T-this wasn't here the last time I visited 5 years ago... I don't recall it being on any of the maps either." The lake itself is kind of ood in that there is no beach, or really a defined shoreline that comes with most lakes your familiar with. It looks more like a large section of the forest was just plain flooded. Even the trees continue on into the water and eventually disappear beneath the surface.

In delight I begin to giggle. "Well, well, here is the water from the well." still giggleing in disbeleif I sit down and stair. "so lets all learn to hold our breath for foolishly long amounts of time then we can just go re flood the underwater ocean. Thusly killing all the dead things under the mounds and being able to get to the baron, OoO wouldn't it be weird if the baron was part creepy see creature like a frog"

Leaning over towards Riannon Alisatr whispers, "I think the stress of the situation may be getting to your friend. Perhaps she requires a break, for a little bit?"

Rhiannon stares curiously at Akashia, also taken aback by the odd behaviour. "Well, we are going on a little while without sleep. However, her main point is intriguing. If we can find where they dammed the "lake", we can flood the graveyard. Although I don't believe undead need to breathe." She looks at Alistair and then Akashia questioningly, to see if they have additional information. "We also run the risk of killing any useful sentient informants that may be down there."

"I don't think it likely the baron is a sea-creature. More probably he wanted a large space that wasn't easily observed to conduct his...procedures. The fact that he had to clear out an entire underwater lake actually suggests that he can't breathe underwater -- otherwise he'd just build in there and not bother to drain it."

She peers into the waters cautiously to see if anything moves.

"I'm not tired, and the stress is fine. I just have to appriciate the work and creativity of the Baron. If undead can breath underwater fine. But the barons probably down there too and as you pointed out he's probably not a frog, though it might have been neet. Any way if we kill him we kill the undead so we dround the baron and we metaphoically drown the undead. And i can hold my breath for 56 seconds."

"Then it appears as though we search for the damn. destroy it and let the water wash the flith of the Baron away with it."

 

[confused_child]

Standing up "I say we follow the water line all the way round till we get to a place were it could be damned" looking both ways and points toward the mountins "lets go this way cause it looks like we will find the damn faster."

 

[luciddarkchild]

After 6 hours of hiking you reach the gap between two mountains. there you find the source of the lake. A few small streams are running down the sides of the mountains in the lake. Other then a small beaver damn you find no trace of the damn.

 

[confused_child]

"I'm out of ideas how bout you two?"

 

[Rhiannon Star]

"Well, we could always hold our breaths and just dive underwater? Alternately, head back to the well and explore -- we know it has to be around there somewhere...Either option is fairly time-consuming and deadly. Perhaps we could ask any nearby people -- towns, nomadic tribes, whatever -- about this lake and its origins."
