M4: Under the Volcano [Nimisgod judging] -CONCLUDED

"I have an idea to help us explore with less risk, but it will take more time. We use the scroll case to carry air. When we see a cavity in the rock above your head, you just put the air there and come back. You could do a few pocket of air between here and the crocodile beach. That way, when we will want to explore, or swim back where we were, we will be able to do it with less risk. Eanos, do you think you could start to do that. I suggest we put a klight spell on the scroll case to not hinder more teh swimmer who will do that." suggets Rinaldo.

Eanos nods in the darkness. Realizing only Razh can see this, however, he speaks. His voice is slowly returning to normal as he regains his breath.

"I'm sure I have that much in me, at least," Eanos says, "Though I fear our time is running short. Once I make the initial attempt, if the bubble holds, perhaps our scout should start out then. In the meanwhile, I can build the "air break" up to a reasonable size to be of use, perhaps even start building another further down the tunnel?"

"I suggets to build one near the fork, it was around the middle between here and our starting point, it would allow Ashnar and his helper to breath mid-way, it would also help the scout, as it is what, 60 or 80 feet? I would be that more done."
 

Provided the light can be seen from beneath the water Tenebrynn will retrieve it while the others help Eanos, then decide on a course of action.
 


Eanos, human monk

Eanos reaches for the scroll case as he forces himself to stand. Holding it out, he says, "Would one of our arcane friends be willing to use another spell to illuminate the case? If so, I'll see about building that air bubble."
 

Lord Gundar, Ashnar mentally 'shouts,' we can help you get rid of the spawn of that dragon who defiled you! Just show us the path!
As little hope he has that the deity actually listens to him, he still makes his plea. He had died with the idea that he had ridiculed a deity. No matter how despicable Kazikazi might be, he had set out with the promise to prove that his family was not one of godfoes. If he were to die here again, at least he wanted to make peace with his own mind. And offering Gundar himself aid... to some, it might seem like arrogance. To Ashnar, it was simply part of his greater duty.
 

"Yes, here let me see if for a moment." replies Tenebrynn as he uses the small amount of moss that he had stashed away to cast light on the scroll case. "Unfortunately these spells do not last too long, so lets hope that we can make it out of here soon."
 

Ogrin aids in building the air bubble. He suggests each person takes at most 2-3 trips back and forward and then take a rest to dry up.
 

The group finds buidling an airpocket to be tricky business. Finding a cavity isn't difficult, but finding the same one a second time is trickier. The group also finds it is tricky to swim w/o releasing some of the air (Dex or sleigh of hand DC 6 each round). The water also chills after a few swims, and the party must take turns so as not to freeze.

Still, after 5 minutes, they think they've made one air pocket on the ceiling of the tunnel near the first split (or whereever).
 

"Eanos, can you explore the last branch. Don't go too far, and don't hesitate to use the pocket of air... and take the scrollcase, to light your way and have a bit of air, just in case." tells Rinaldo.
