Part 1: The Forgotten Forge (Knight Otu judging) [Concluded]

Stulgar will climb down once the battle is over. Just in time to see the dwarven artifacer shocked. "I would guess that was not the right one," he says, and a serious tone.

Nothing remains for Kharas beyond the puzzle before him (and a little buzzing headache from the electrical current that coursed through his body). If the pentagon was not the correct one to start with... Which one is next? or will someone else give it a shot next time?
 


Ahki moves away from the others tinkering with the forge and finds a pile of debris to sit down on. With his one good arm he tears some strips of cloth from his clothes to bind the wounds as best he can. He looks up at Weapon when he offers some assistance. "I may be wounded but I can still fight so long as there is breath in me. I will not slow us down." He rises from his seat using his club for balance doing his best not to show pain from the grievous wounds.
 

"Ok... there must be some kind of logic to that... if there is nothing to do before, it must be the order... if I would put a logic behind that, increase the number of edge, or decrease... cannot be latest, or I woouldn't have take that shock... I better not be wrong" Kharas put the triangle then the square to finish with the pentagone... if he get shock again and survive, he will hold his action.
 

Mordin climbs down one of the ropes as well and pokes through some of the rubble with his boot. "Do we be havin' any healing left? Our stalwart friends here took some grievous hurts for us."
 

Kharas gingerly continues trying the combination, wincing as he puts the triangle rod closer... closer... click.

It fits perfectly and no electricity charges through the floor.

Continuing, Kharas puts in the square, click, and then the pentagon, click. With the last click a woosh of air rushing into a sealed chamber behind the forge begins to open. The entire forge slides out along the steel panel on the floor. Behind the forge there is a hidden alcove now accessible by moving around behind the forge. In the hidden vault is 2 sacks of coins, 4 golden ingots, 4 vials, and an adamantine plate in the shape of a seven-pointed star about the size of Kharas' hand. Intricate runes adorn the plate.
 


"I must tell that if you want your blueprint to survive the harshness of time, adamantium might be the best material to write on it." Kharas starts to looks at the plate and try to understand what the runes means. After that, he'll spend some time on each vials to learn what they might be.
