Legacy of Death Part II: Graves of Lesser Immortals

"Well, we pulled that lever in the room with the quicklings, and nothing seemed to happen. We also haven't haven't closely investigated the pair of obelisks. I suggest we go back and look at those. We also have the option of a ritual to detect secret doors, or a scroll of hand of fate..."

Magic-User: Yes, Forge did pull the lever. You did look at the obelisks, in the last hour in fact. Simple pillars of black marble, without writing or symbols.

Thief: Well, thats a good point. You have found entrances to other structures here, and been into those structures. You have just not found an exterior entrance to the central structure that you mostly walked around.

On your level, to the east is the building you just went through, which is connected by a bridge to the maproom (and may have a door that for some reason you overlooked probably because the DM forgot to point it out).

Well, there's this as well.

"Methinks we missed something in there" is heard as the Tiefling points to the north building "that might takes us in here" as he then points down to the building they're currently standing on.

Buckthorn points as Lucian speaks, saying this way is north. He turns away from the bridge, looks at the long norther building were you all where recently, and may notice...

...a wall running between what is now the north building and the south.

Forge ... is on about a 7 foot wide stretch of wall/building that connects the 1) irregular north building that runs east to west and then turns south, and 2) the more central irregular building ...
(Hint: take a look at the map I originally posted after the last session, now a few pages back..., forge would be towards the top of "wall")

Climbing over and to the east of were Forge is now should bring him back to the path that leads along the river and in turn leads to the opening in the northern structure (again, previous map). Forge can just see the path leading into this structure, and probably remembers going into it the day before, with the first stop being the tapestry room, which in fact should be pretty close to where he is now. He can also see a part of the building with curved walls just next to that...

Going south from were he is standing should lead to the central structure, or at least the top of it. ...

Forge: ...

Again, you can clearly see the northern building with the path leading into it and the 7 foot wide bit on which you were just standing that connects it to the central part.

...

(I will try to give a summary)

There is a sort of long L shape structure to the north. A large oval structure in the middle. ... Where Forge climbed up connects the north and middle parts.

On the ranger's maps the white is mostly still there, as you did not go into anything (unlike the # places that you did). Forge did walk on top of much of that white space, from the straight bit south of "12" to the curved part by "wall", and some ways west of there.

So yes, there is a 11 foot high, 7 foot wide connection between the two structures.

And in fact, you could probably even figure out where in the northern structure this connects to.

Just FYI: When I pointed to the "northern building", I was actually referring to the northern building. The quote about the overlooked door was meant to be more anecdotal. Crafty Lucien may be. Eloquent he most certainly is not.

 

[TerraDave]

He's the most eloquent one in the party!

In any case, he points right at the link.

 

[dyermaker001]

"As I was saying, we need to go back to the tapestry room and look for more secret doors."

 

[TerraDave]

How do you want to go there?

 

[dyermaker001]

Given our die rolling skill, I think we should walk back around, through the south building, and out the first door we passed near the man made cave.

 

[TerraDave]

Ok....though some of you are already up on the wall/roof, with a rope...and as you now know...the entrance is right there.

Or you you can walk back around.
