[LPF] Beggar's Belief

Ariel Esimae, Female Aasimar Cleric

Ariel shrugs and apologizes again, "That makes sense. So I guess we can easily determine who is not the trickster. My apologies again master Knesh. I am turning in again. Wake me when it is my watch."

She removes her armor again and tucks back into her bedroll to catch a few more hours of rest before her watch.

OOC: Shouldn't we actually check the evidence to see if it is a fake?

 

[Aldern Foxglove]

Those on watch after that point hear, echoing laughter and see great beasts, and massive tentacles writhing towards them and then fading away. The experience is unsettling and sleep is difficult, but eventually the dawn comes and the group are for the most part rested and ready to face the day.

They awaken to a light drizzle and a steely gray sky.

OOC: With all of you holding him, its quickly obvious Knesh is no illusion.

Ariel Esimae, Female Aasimar Cleric

Ariel dons her armor again and performs her morning ritual to Helina with prayer and martial exercises. After breaking fast she looks to her companions and Knesh, asking, "I think we are ready to beard this trickster in his lair now. What are you going to do, Master Knesh?"

She prepares a Light spell in place of Stabilize and Doom in place of Shield of Faith.

OOC: Not really sure there is anything to do about the blood stain. Ariel thinks it was just to cause doubt in Knesh being who he is.

"I'll stay up here. If you need to come back for any reason, make sure there are at least two of ye, that way I know it ain't Stump being trixie. I doubt he will abandon his treasure to come after me with you heading down there." The beggar says, absent mindedly picking at one of the nondescript patches on his ragged cloak.

 

[VVilhem]

"Well then, what are we waiting for? Let's put an end to this creature."

OOC: I assume we move into the room with the grate and start poking around the entrace?

 

[Aldern Foxglove]

Moving to the entrance, you see a great black iron grate grown over with weed and covered in rubble, it lies open revealing a gaping maw of a trapdoor down into darkness. The keen eyed can make out the floor some twenty feet below - it does not appear to be flooded directly below the trapdoor at least. You are going to need the ladder Shipelli mentioned or some other means to get down without injury.

 

[VVilhem]

OOC: I must be getting old since I am drawing a blank on the ladder. Does anyone else remember? If we're all getting old, a grappling hook + rope would do.

 

[Aldern Foxglove]

OOC: Memories...

There's a drop down some twenty feet, but we knocked together a fairly sturdy wooden ladder it should be in a little room off to the east of the cellar entrance."

 

[VVilhem]

"Ariel, let's go get the ladder. The boys can keep watch just in case something wants to crawl out of that hole."
