OK - you're pretty sure the ward is down. Are you going to try to rest right where you are, or are you going to leave Khaz Barok before doing so?

I should be able to take care of some of the orb stuff here....so if you want to know how it reacts to certain things, I can tell you.
 

Oppps she may actually be dead....

uh... so in the midst of figure out more important things L'Aurel forgot about here con drain and all the damage she had taken (remember low AC not melee) :) I took CON away from hp, but didn't look at the actually numbers and modifiers and such.... So in figuring things out and if she may actually be dead what was in the last battle the bonus that Xath gave to our CON at it's highests? And when did it die out?

If we plan to do anything more then walk and fight our way out we have to rest to get teleport and/or dimension door. Priority is making sure ward is down (Jansten to send magical message or such to his people) and notify those we left in charge in sylvanus of ward being down and getting those men/armies on the move. Getting to Caer Albion with the scroll of teleport, is the other primary objective. Correct?

Also, not sure about just leaving the body here.

We poke it :)

If we ask it what it is can it talk back, or can only the dolphin talk back?

L'Aurel had a +4 CON bonus from Bear's Endurance, which would have gone away 15 minutes after combat started. Plenty of time for her to have been healed.

She also had another +4 CON bonus from a song which finished 5 rounds after the combat. So sometime while she was underwater with Xath.

However, I think it was implied that everyone was healed while Xath was singing the Song of Freedom to return Jansten to normal.

Unless we want to trek back through the dungeon, we're going to have to rest for at least 4 hours. After that, Xath can port everyone back to Hyrwl.

I do think we should talk to the orb and ascertain its intentions before anything else though. We know the ward is down. AB will take the troops to Caer Albion and Mordred's Isle.

The orb has no means of communication, save it's thrall.

What do you poke it with?

Right - unless L'aurel might have died *during* the combat, she lives, as healing should have been distributed while Xath was restoring Jansten to humanoid form. However, if there was a mathematical error and she would have died during the actual battle with the draconid, we have some things we need to talk about.

If losing 4 temporary CON would have killed her, than she's also dead, because I know no one was healed in the five rounds immediately after combat ended.

You need to rest for more than 4 hours, since Xath can no longer 'port the whole group. You need both boot-wearers rested.
 

Justice pokes the orb with the Rod of Lordly Might.

I thought we were going to try to climb out of the dungeon - mapping along the way.

-----

Also - what do we want to do with Aregonn's body? Justice can Gentle Repose it and bring it with us... not sure what good it would do... based on Justice's memories the Apecto killed the Bluestar 3 or 4 times - but, so long as his phylact. remains, he just gets a new body. However, maybe this is his original body? Maybe speaking with dead would be a good thing to try? Maybe we want to make sure we destroy it?

Thoughts?
 

See follow the river :)

I know we will want to have watch rotation again, but should we sleep in the room with one door in and four walls or sleep in big open room with the lake or sleep in the hallway?

I was hoping we could track out as well- but we move at half and the DC is somewhere around 20- not impossible for Archonus with L'Aurel helping, but it will take lots of precious time. And we have no knowledge of where the other tunnels lead above/side or how close our other tracks may be, so we would have to track from the place we entered.

As was stated directly after the fight -every second we waste hundreds may be dying- Janesten's people and Caer Albion. We can port back to here if we need to, so everyone study it! :)

As for the body- We tried to speak with it, speak with dead is attached to the soul- we would just be speaking to the soul that resides in some body in the North and calls itself the bluestar. I just don't think we should leave the body. We don't have to give it a funeral. We can fire it up. We can bury somewhere sot he bones can cause truble to someone. We can see if ol blue wants it back. We can use it in plays to stand in for the bluestar.

THanks! Besides being VERY gaunt and VERY wounded she is still.... sitting, but conscious :)

I will keep track of that one better, sorry :/
