Ptolus- Palace of the Silver Princess (Campy)

OOC: You gents seem so sad. Well at least Thorg does.

The party decides to leave both Renard and the now-bloody bathroom behind. The next door leads to the southwest, and Carl opens it and peers inside before telling the party that it seems clear.

This hexagonal room is decorated with mosaic tiles. The mosaic covers the entire room, the walls, the floor, and the ceiling. One scene shows a man in black plate armor riding a white dragon. A young woman wearing a golden crown is riding in front of the man. Another scene shows elves playing in some woods while a watching white dragon observes them from a hiding place between two pines. On another wall is a scene showing a pool of bright blue water. Several mermaids frolic in the water. The design on the floor shows the crowned maiden, the man in black armor, and the white dragon asleep around a key hole. All the mosaics look new.

A pink door leads to the east, while a normal looking door is to the southeast.

"Interesting indeed," Carl says as he holds one of his hands to his chin in thought. "Fairly new tile and a nice piece of work. I wonder if the dragon had this commissioned."

Carl digs into his backpack pulling out a black marker and draws curly mustaches on all the instances of the dragon in the tiles. "There. Now it looks like a white dragon." Obviously Carl has no clue what a white dragon truly looks like.

"A pink door? That must be special!"
 

"Indeed it is an odd color choice for a door. Let us try it out." says Thym, though he wont actually move to open the door himself until no one else makes a move to do it.
 



Petey lights a small cigar with a small flame that comes forth from his finger and comments in a bored fashion, "Well, there is a keyhole. Maybe there is a key... or maybe you know a good locksmith."
 

"The only locksmith we know is the universal door opener. Thorg feel up to a little bashing? Maybe your friend can help." replies Thym after looking around and not spotting anyone with lock picking abilities.
 

OOC: Was waiting, but I'll move this forward.

Thorg begins to hammer at the wall by making a running charge and throwing his shoulder into it. After the first two attempts the door merely shudders, but then Thorg's new ape friend begins to hammer at it with his fists when Thorg is in between attempts. On the fourth try the door's hinges begin to snap, and the half-orc and ape take to punching and kicking at it to get the rest of it to fall. As the pink door clatters to the floor, the now-excited ape jumps on top of it and continues to slam its fists down while whistling and hooting excitedly. The rest of the party carefully walk around their happy companion and take a closer look at the room.

Upon entering this nearly empty room, the first thing you notice is a small, pink marble pedestal five feet in height. You also see something small that is silver and shiny gleaming from atop the pedestal.
 


"Thanks Mr. Ape, and you too Thorg. It looks like its party time in here. At least the decor suggests parties and cake." says Thym shaking his head at the mind numbing amount of pink. He'll let Carl take first look at the thing on the pedestal.
