Ptolus- Palace of the Silver Princess (Campy)

"The 3rd rule according to my great-great-great-great grandfather's book, is explore everything. I guess we start becoming door to door explorers." Carl says as he walks over to one of the unexplored doors and gives the handle a jiggle.

"Absolutely Carl. Next door on this side then." says Thym opening or rather leading the others to the next door and suggesting one of them open it.
 

You choose the next eastern door and peer inside. This room appears to be a dining hall. Seated around the table are twenty statues of men and women eating supper. One statue is cutting meat, another is drinking from a cup, and so forth. The food on the table is not stone, but instead is cold and stale.
 

"I do not believe that this is some princess' pretend dinner party. Watch out for things with petrificating glaces." he says badly butchering the word.
 



"Oh a captive audience!" Carl says with excitement as he starts playing some music that befits the somber, stone-faced mood of the room.

He slowly walks around eying the rooms belongings and try to determine what might have caused this.
 



Tnk! Tnk! Guy's rapier bends slightly as he pokes at the solid stone statue of a finely-dressed, bearded man frozen in the motion of bringing a silver fork to his mouth. The statue looks very life-like, although his silverware, and the silverware of the other statues, seem valuable and not at all like stone. Samuel does a close inspection and is sure of the fact that these dinner guests are real, turned to stone by some profane magical effect. Thorg concurs as a part of his divine connection tells him that these men and women live still. Thym looks under the table and finds a dog, also turned to stone, but looking upwards past the table and guests and into some unknown danger as a snarl is permanently etched on his being. Carl takes the scene in and deduces that the small group was frozen all at once, as many of the people look unaware of any threat and seem relaxed. He doubts that a creature was involved, but it was more likely that powerful magic was enacted in this room.
