M1: Just a Treasure Hunt?? (Bront Judging)

[Dirk Nightbreese]

Finishing his drawing, the Wizard softly answers his young friend, 'Both, actually, according to some scholars.'

Moving towards the levers, Genithar goes to see how many there are, in what position, and if there is any symbols near them.

 

[Moggthegob]

Terran nods thinking to himself Well, we came from the North. How ar North are we talking. Because i think there is a whole continent of IC to the north I believe,but then I've heard wild rumours about parts of Xendrick being ice-covered as well due to odd magic fluctuation.

 

[Dirk Nightbreese]

The Wizard shrugs and responds, 'I do not believe it to be a matter of cardinal directions...for it seems these ancient builders went one of only two ways; up or down.'

 

[Redclaw]

Why the last words, "There is but one way left to go", then? That suggests to me that we cross of the ones that fit the clues and go in the last one, likely finding a way to point the statue in that direction.

 

[Mellubb]

[sblock=Genithar] You know that there was a long period of peace between the giants and dragons. This peace was destroyed when the giants while trying to stop the dreaming dark called upon a great magic that nearly destroyed Eberron. And before that magic was released Xendrik was much more hospitable. The dragons did indeed come from the east and the sun sets in the west. There are glacial plains in all directions of Xendik now but you do not know where they were before. [/sblock]

[SBlock=Thral’k] You know the Glacial plains are most vast in the south, but they now exist in all directions of the continent. [/sblock]

[sblock=Corran] You know the Glacial plains are most vast in the south, but they now exist in all directions of the continent. [/sblock]

 

[Dirk Nightbreese]

The Wizard's long fingered hand slowly travels to pointy chin as he ponders his years of accumulated knowledge, putting away his implements and then waving the group to join him around the levers and suggests, 'Perhaps it would be better to place ourselves in the state of mind of one of those mighty creatures who ruled this land during the Age of Giants. At that time, I believe the most hospitable lands for any Colossal ones seeking safety would be South. What say you others?'

 

[stonegod]

"Hssss. Plainsss of Iccce usssed to be only SSSSouth. North only one left. Twissst statue to make it ssssooo."

 

[Dirk Nightbreese]

The Wizard gives Thral'K a raised eyebrow of interest as he answers, ’Perhaps our shadowy scout is correct, as the statue points North presently. Should we attempt to shift its direction south?’

Looking to the rest of the group, Genithar continues, ’Do you others have any insights? I would assume if we make the wrong choice with the levers, a lethal trap may spring.’

ooc; what position are the levers in, presently?

 

[Mellubb]

The lever to the far left is up the other three are down. They are all the same color and nondescript.

 

[Dirk Nightbreese]

Indicating the levers, Genithar suggests, 'Perhaps the mirror image of this configuration will make the way forward clear to us; far left down and far right up. Anyone wish to test this theory?'

The Wizard, having said his piece takes a distinct step backwards from the levers.
